Dialects and Chinese Culture: Unraveling the Co-evolution of Language and Culture
Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2023, Vol 6, Issue 09
Abstract
ClaireKramsch(2000) ever mentioned that Language is the carrier of culture, bearing rich national cultural connotations. As an important part of culture, the development and evolution of language is inseparable from the development of culture. The two are interdependent, influence and promote each other, and jointly promote new social changes. However, different countries or different regions of the same country have given birth to unique languages and cultures because of their unique historical, geographical and social backgrounds.Therefore, dialect is the product of geography and social environment. As a branch of language, it also bears rich regional culture, in other words, dialect is also an important perspective to explore national culture. Although language belongs to the category of culture, it is independent of culture. In the past, most of scholars tended to study the language itself in isolation, but neglected the exploration of the relationship between language and culture. Dialects and Chinese Culture (Zhou& You, 2006)puts forward the theory of "Cultural Linguistics" for the first time, and the author combines language with culture to explore their interaction in the process of historical evolution and development, so as to make up for the deficiency in the field of linguistics. This book provides a new reference for future linguistic and cultural studies.
