What exactly is culture? In the book "What is Culture", the author uses personal experience and vivid feelings to interpret this most fundamental issue after profound observation. From the academic and life levels, we will analyze what is missing from a culturally powerful country, from the elite to the public psychology.
The first part, "Academic Answers," systematically discusses what culture is, what is the nature of Chinese culture, and other issues. In response to the impetuousness of social psychology and the author's own deep thinking, he uses rare outspoken criticism to reveal the loss of the origin of culture at all levels, and loudly proposes that the essence of cultural reconstruction is to return to truth, goodness, and beauty. It can be described as deafening and inspiring.
The second part, "The Answer of Life", traces the past of Zhou Enlai and many cultural giants who have passed away, such as Xie Jin, Huang Zuolin, Ba Jin, etc., Because they used almost all their lives to reveal the origin of culture. "Looking Up at Cloud Gate" writes about three living elders of Taiwanese culture, Lin Huaimin, Bai Xianyong and Yu Guangzhong, and how they treat tradition, their country and the human spirit with awe. These articles are the treasures of Yu Qiuyu's lifelong prose writing.
