Interpretation is a Cultural History
by Sang Bing Editor-in-chief Guan Xiaohong
About This Novel
Although modern Chinese people have accepted a large number of new terms from Meiji New Chinese, when they encounter Western concepts or refer to things, they still can't help but go back to ancient classics and interpret the meaning of the text. Moreover, when interpreting new nouns, we often not only compare the original Western words and treat the new nouns as a whole, but also understand the meanings of the words from the Chinese character combinations. As a result, the same new Chinese noun takes on different forms in Eastern and Chinese contexts, resulting in many ambiguities that cannot overlap with each other. Only by not using nouns to outline history, but by studying history to grasp concepts, can we hope to reach the state where one word of explanation is a cultural history.
