In more ancient writings for the word 婚姻, the

former has the 昏beside the radical 女. This

implies that the wedding ceremony is performed

in the evening, which is deemed as a time of

fortune. Similarly, 姻has the same

pronunciation as 因. According to a dictionary

of ancient Chinese characters, 因means

"friendliness", "love" and "harmony", indicating

the correct way of living for a married couple.

喜酒(Xǐ Jǐu)

bride :presenting wines or tea to parents, spouse, and guests. Groom:is responsible for the cost of the wedding.

Generally, separate wedding feasts were given by

the parents of the bride and the groom for their

respective friends and families. Even at the feast,

men and women sat separately. There could be a

single feast for each or a series of feasts over

several days.

However, the most important feast was that given

the groom’s family on the day of the wedding. It

was generally considered as public recognition of

the union.

古代中国和希腊文化比较

古希腊科学技术与中国古代科学技术的特点比较 古希腊科学技术 (1) 非功利性 我国在科学技术和文化发展中一贯主张“经世致用”,仅仅将科学技术视为改善生活状况的一种工具和手段,即使在今天我们也把“实践是认识的目的和归宿”放在一个非常突出的位置。与此相反,古希腊科学技术体系则具有鲜明的“为科学而科学”的非功利性色彩,这一特点在古希腊前后期是一以贯之的。文艺复兴后西方的科学技术发展部分地继承了古希腊的这一传统。 欧几里得是希腊化时期的数学巨人,正是他总结了当时的数学成就并使之体系化,在此基础上编写了几何学的经典著作《几何原本》。关于欧几里得,有一则流传甚广的故事。说的是有一位青年向欧几里得学习几何学,刚学了一个命题,就问欧几里得学了几何学有什么用处,欧几里得不满地对仆人说:“给这个学生三个钱币,让他走,他居然想从几何学中得到好处。”这则故事具有象征意义,这说明整个古希腊一直十分强调科学的非功利性。 (2)理论性强,体系完整 古希腊科学技术模式的最主要特点是善于运用逻辑思维和演绎的方法进行科学研究,成功地将数学运用在几个科学领域,进行定量分析,重视事物的抽象与一般,在此基础上确立了一系列科学概念和原理、命题。古希腊这种逻辑数理型科技模式的一个明显优点就是容易透过现象把握到事物的本质,通过杂乱无章的表面现象发现事物的内在规律。正因为如此,古希腊才能在自然哲学、数学等诸多科学领域取得辉煌的成就。 我国古代除墨学有关于逻辑学的只言片语外,没有建立起自己的逻辑学体系,学术发展与民族心理相互影响,使我国古代对逻辑推理、抽象思维未予重视,而只是突出发展了形象、直观思维的方面;而古希腊则开创了逻辑学,在亚里士多德时期就已经建立起庞大的逻辑学体系,亚里士多德还被西方称为“逻辑之父”。因此在整个古希腊时期,科学家善于运用逻辑思维方法来考虑问题。 中国特点是: (1)与封建社会同兴衰; 从封建社会开始,我国就形成了政府功能强大而社会功能弱小的特殊社会结构,在社会资源配置过程中,政府和各级官吏占有极其重要的地位,这使我国逐步形成了“官本位”的思想观念,在以后二千年的封建社会中这一观念得到了进一步强化,甚至现在都能看到它的痕迹,为官者无论政治地位还是经济、社会地位都高高在上。与此同时,我国在长期的封建社会里始终没有形成尊重科学、知识,尊重人才的社会氛围,全体公民被划分为“一官、二吏、三僧、四道、五医、六工、七猎、八民、九儒、十丐”,知识分子位居九等,仅在乞丐之上。由于官和儒的巨大反差,导致厚官轻儒的“官本位”观念产生,知识分子中则形成了“学而优则仕”的思维定势,能否做官、官大官小成为判断为学是否成功的唯一标准,这对读书人选择奋斗目标起了非常不好的导向作用。而在古希腊乃至整个近、现代的西方,尽管同样存在官民差别,但并未形成象中国如此严重的“官本位”观念,有成就的科学家同样能够赢得社会的尊重。

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CHINESE MARRIAGE CUSTOM AND WESTERN MARRIAGE CUSTOM 中西方婚俗的差异

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CHINESE MARRIAGE CUSTOM AND WESTERN MARRIAGE CUSTOM 中西方婚俗的差异 1 Introduction Marriage is formed in a long historical evolution of the marriage custom in a nation. It is the regularity of the activities that restrains people's awareness of marriage and marriage. Marriage custom’s binding does not depend on the law, and it cannot rely on science tests neither, but on the force of habit, traditional culture and national psychology. During the development of human history, the institution of marriage and family system has experienced different processes of development. Human have experienced group marriage, the dual system of marriage and individual marriage system (monogamy). 2 Chinese Marriage Custom Like other folk, marriage custom has the same development and evolving process.
