On 17 may 2016, the secretary-general of xi stated at a colloquium on the work of philosophy and social sciences that china has a long history of civilization, from the former qin qin qin qin, the han qian studies, wei shingen studies, to the guangdong buddhists, confucius, song ming sing, and went through several periods of academic intellectual prosperity to promote the creative transformation and innovative development of chinese civilization and activate its vitality. The important physical evidence of the chinese civilization, the only great civilization in the world to date, is that our words remain intact. Words are not just a tool for people to communicate, but, more importantly, a vehicle for knowledge and ideas, and their unbroken nature means that culture is not interrupted and civilization is not interrupted. Therefore, building an autonomous knowledge system of chinese civilization is a major issue that enhances the power of china's civilization to communicate and is of vital importance for the survival of chinese culture。
The concept of the autonomy of civilization
In contemporary chinese terminology, the term “civilization” carries multiple connotations. It is both an ambitious narrative dating back to history and a central cornerstone of national identity and cultural self-confidence. China's concept must be considered in the construction of an autonomous knowledge system of chinese civilization, so the core of the autonomous knowledge system is the autonomy of the concept. What is the relationship between civilization and the state? Clarifying this issue cannot be imagined; it must go back to the condensation of basic concepts. In china's conceptual system, civilization is completely different from that of the state. In fact, civilization is a typical chinese concept, and clarifying this is the key to building an autonomous knowledge system。
It is a matter of morality to speak of civilization six times in the first qin times. Zhou jian-chang said: “it is a man and a civilization who should walk in heaven.” zhou myung zhu, “intracivilized and soft”. Zhou yee zhou, “civilization is strong, right and right, and good.” civilization means the inner upbringing of human beings, that is, the achievement of a man with civilization. “the world of civilization, the world of civilizations, the world of the world.” civil society has nothing to do with technology and must put an end to war. In the post-handbook dungeon, “the civilization of the utterly-wild and mother-to-be”. New towns book, the legend: “civilization is so great that it is called good governance.” it is the virtue of civilization as an adult. "the heart is born, the heart is spoken and the heart is spoken." the song book and the law read: "to be a man who betrays his will and desires, he is happy to be a man, so he can be a man of love, of civilization and of glory." civilization is also the only criterion for the achievement of men. China's pioneers have always understood civilization, which has been inherited from qin. The core of china's civilization must be summed up by three elements: morality, knowledge and protocol, which constitute the basic elements of chinese civilization. For civil society, morality is the foundation of the human being, knowledge is the foundation, and protocol is the foundation for the management of the world, and this grand cosmological thinking has shaped the “three-in-threes” of the chinese civilization。
Why did the first sage think about civilization? The reason is really very simple. It is no simple logic that a civilized society of human beings must be built by civilized human beings, which determines that the meaning of civilization is first and foremost expressed in the civilization of human beings as the subject of society, and that individuals who have achieved civilization are able to form a civilized society by indoctrination of the group of civilizations. There is no doubt that civil society cannot be built by savages, let alone by technology and wealth. Thus, the fundamental pursuit of chinese civilization is the way of adulthood, not the way of wealth or promotion, nor the way of hegemony, which is the understanding of the chinese pioneers of civilization. Being a person in advance determines that the third of chinese civilization must be centred on morality。
The chinese civilization was meant to be human civilization. Sang-suk sun-sung says: “during the dzud civilization, i am humbled.” that is to say, he is a wise man and a civilized man. What's "drank"? It's not a self-assessed intelligence, it's a private wisdom. Philosophy has moral attributes. The ancients thought that only a man of virtue could have thought well, and that no man of evil could have eyes, nor could he have drenched. It would be dangerous if the philosophy could not be ethical and unsettled. The "drum civilization" is a great virtue, and it must be seen in deong wai, which is a "grateful offer". It is clear that the concept of china's autonomous civilization refers to the moral upbringing of human beings. It was not the creation of the state that marked the birth of civilization, which was the violent machine of class rule, but which sought to become a man. There is no nation without a man; there is no nation without civilization and there are no animals. "handfy son five" says: "the ancient race for morality, the chinese for wisdom, today for strength." new technologies are not necessarily more powerful than old technological civilizations, and if they are used to create murder weapons that kill more people in a short period of time, they are not civilization at all, but barbarism. The same technology is available to civilized people for the benefit of humanity, but to savages it will become a weapon of slaughter. It is the achievement of human civilization that is the fundamental pursuit of civilized society。
Knowledge and thought of moral attributes
The fact that chinese civilization is based on adults means that the definition of human beings is, in fact, the concept that chinese civilization needs to establish first and foremost, which is at the heart of its autonomous knowledge system. Zhou yi gian wen: "see dragons in the field, civilization in the world." condolence of justice explains “civilization in the world” as: “there are articles in the world and there is light.” knowing that “civilization” is the word “article”, meaning the word and spirit of the heart is outside. Clearly, the key to civilization is “language”. To be precise, the chinese civilization, in the form of an ethical, intellectual and ceremonial system, constitutes the core of its doctrine, in which ethics are the foundation of adults, knowledge is the foundation of the mind, and protocol is the foundation for the management of the world, forming the philosophy of civilization with its own civilizational character。
Why did the forebears think about the question of the moral adult? Monko said: “man is different from the beast, and the people go, and the men live.” it was the understanding of the foreman that the criterion of separation must be made clear. Only by moral modification can human beings emerge from the beast and become human beings. “it is the holy man who worships and teaches, and makes a man salute and know that he is a beast.” the ancient thinkers believe that the reason why human beings are different from beasts is only moral. Clearly, the definition of human beings is no longer a purely biological issue, but must have moral attributes. It is the basic thinking of chinese civilization that the human being is the human being, and the immoral is the animal. It's not bad. It's good faith at its core. The moral attributes of the human person make the human society made up of the human being ethical and form a distinct feature of autonomous knowledge and ideas。
The original idea was that the meaning of the term “text” was moral and that it was possible to separate human beings from the beasts, which meant that the achievement of human beings was also the achievement of civilization, so that the history of human civilization was indeed the history of the emergence of adults from the beasts. Archaeological data indicate that by 7,000 years at the latest, the concept of civilization of the sindh adults has been completed. This period's pottery was discovered at the hubei to the yolein creek site and was written in the first of the ancient mandarin languages currently seen. The term "five fields" means five fields in the north-west and south-west, meaning the world, while the term "words" means adults in the modern world to see civilization. It is clear that the idea expressed in the ancient chinese “vada” is, in fact, the “civilization of the world” of the emancipation of succeeding generations. The thought of china’s pioneers about separating people from animals has been at least 7,000 years old. The concept of chinese autonomy is more civilized than it is today。
The role of archaeology in building an autonomous knowledge system of chinese civilization
China's civilization has developed on the basis of agricultural civilization, which gave prominence to only four of the earliest classical sciences, namely astronomy, mathematics, mechanics and agronomy, in which astronomy, as the first to emerge, has become the source of chinese civilization. Archaeological data indicate that the origin of agriculture dates back thousands of years, which means that astronomy and arithmetic, which provide time for agricultural production, should also be formed as early as possible, marking the inhospitability of china's autonomous knowledge system。
Since 8,000 years ago, china's civilization and its knowledge system have been at a critical stage in the formation of china's civilization, the memory of the sea dragon, the tablets of retrospect, and so forth, have proved that the ancient people have completed their planning of space and time, and have constructed the unique temporal and spatial knowledge of chinese civilization in relation to space and time. The culinary writing of digital gossip from the site of the trans-lake bridge demonstrates the great achievements of arithmetic. Music and numbers, as ideal expressions of the idea of the sun, also prove that the vision of the sun is long overdue. In addition, the knowledge of mechanics is reflected not only in construction and plant technology, but also in large hydropower projects。
The early discovery of astronomical relics laid the foundation for thinking about a moral system centred on good faith, which was also the foundation of chinese civilization. In fact, it is impossible to form a ethos, let alone a civilization, without a sustained vision. More than 7,000 years ago, the ancient chinese people proved not only to have established a full view of civilization, but also to have combined that view with that of the cosmology, resulting in four dimensions of national thinking, with considerable intellectual and intellectual achievement。
In the new stone age, traditional chinese knowledge and ideas have been developed. The star map of the sunshine spouse proves that the 28-star system has been formed, that the calendar system has been established, and that the burial form shows the universe pattern of the circle. Moreover, a vision-based monarchy and a religious vision of jedi and the rising of the soul have also emerged. The site of the caucasian river found the ceremonial pyrotechnics of the culture of the red mountains 5,500 years ago, embodying the ideology of sacrifice of its kind and reflecting the philosophical thinking of three days. The dunes are presented as three concentric circles representing two-thirds-day trajectories. Its ideas are passed on to future generations through the 5,300 years of sacrifice of tianyu, which has been laid out on mount ling's beach, to the temples of prayer in mingqing beijing and the hills of sacrifice, and to the line of knowledge and thought。
After thousands of years of homogeneity, the subjects of traditional knowledge were created in the era of the qin era, resulting in an autonomous knowledge and ideology system with avindic and cosmological perspective at its core. It solves the problems of the human being, while it solves the problems of the sustainable development of human society. And now and then and then. The formation of modern knowledge does not mean that tradition must be abandoned, and the retroactivity of knowledge lies in the completion of an ancient academic legacy and in the construction of china's own academic system. Without an autonomous knowledge system, we will face an ancient dilemma, because almost all modern disciplines are cylindrical. If chinese academic institutions are examined by western standards, chinese civilization has no knowledge, no ideas, and this is incompatible with a brilliant chinese civilization. It is clear that building an autonomous knowledge system of chinese civilization is an urgent task。
