关键词:The Olympic GamesOpening Ceremony文化价值北京奥运会
摘要:本文介绍了奥林匹克运动会的文化价值,作者选取2008北京奥运会,研究中国作为主办方,是如何通过开幕式展示本国历史文化的。
China wanted the Opening Ceremony to be perfect and needed ‘a girl with both a good image and a good voice.’ (BBC News, Aug 2008) From choosing Lin, it presented an image of a flawless China. Perhaps, the issue of face value was the reason why China used Lin. In Chinese culture, face value refers to the reputation and social position of a person, so if someone ‘lose face’, it means ‘losing prestige by tolerating an attack on one’s honor, dignity and reputation.’ (Monfret, 2011:11) Equally, if someone ‘gain face’, it means they are recognised by others through their status and appearance. With the Opening Ceremony, everything had to be perfect because China wanted to ‘gain face’. The Chinese believe that ‘both social status and public image are extremely important (conversely, social failure is a great shame).’ (Monfret, 2011:12) Therefore, if China allowed Yang Peiyi to appear in the ceremony, it would ruin their public image which will be a great shame.
Artistic Section: The Four Great Inventions
The artistic section began with a short video introducing the four great inventions; paper, printing, compass, and gunpowder. These inventions represent Chinese’s achievements in science and technology mainly because ‘they had a prominent position in the exchanges between the East and the West, and acted as a powerful dynamic in promoting the development of capitalism in Europe.’ (Deng, 2010:14) After the video, a giant LED scroll opened up in the middle of the stadium. Through a projector, some Chinese arts were beamed onto the scroll. At the centre of the scroll, there is a piece of white canvas paper, presenting the first great invention, paper. Paper was first produced using mulberry and other plant fibre during the Han Dynasty [7]. Before paper became popular, the Chinese wrote general information on bones, shells, and bamboo slips, and important messages on silk. Paper is and was one of the key inventions in global cultural development since many items today including money, checks, newspaper and cereal box are made out of paper, and more importantly, ‘Writing was the absolutely essential effort to bring the earth into social being…Without writing…all those days of walking, looking, and searching would have had no social meaning at all.’ (Mueggler, 2011:87) Paper enables written communications to be stored.
A group of black costumed dancers came out and danced on the paper. Before the performance, the dancers had their hands dipped in black ink, so while they danced, their trials were left on the paper as they used their arms as brushes, forming an ink wash painting. Bertrand Russell pointed out that ‘In art, they (the Chinese) aim at being exquisite, and in life at being reasonable.’ (Lin, 2010:50) Art has played an important role in China since the earliest dynastic period. As previously mentioned, the three major religions and philosophies in China are Confucianism, Taoism, and本论文由英语论文网提供整理,提供论文代写,英语论文代写,代写论文,代写英语论文,代写留学生论文,代写英文论文,留学生论文代写相关核心关键词搜索。
