【摘要】：农耕文明中国在给人类带来历史性的文明进步的同时,也造成独特的文化观念的现实。它的成就令华夏子孙自豪,但也有重要的值得省思的方面。其中一个重要的方面是对待人工活动和自然的关系的理解。聚居的农耕生产活动方式内含对自然生态环境的摧毁式的掠夺态度。获得铲除了自然植被的土地的欲望在聚居的人口对承载人口的耕作土地造成过大压力时会变得分外强烈。大规模改变自然生态环境以扩大耕作土地,尤其是大规模水利工程,被看作是人征服自然的象征。自然是人的母亲、人的生命的来源的古朴观念隐退了,对人类的生命之母的敬畏消失了。聚居的农耕文明生活方式已经深刻影响了人们对人自身与自然的关系的观念。我们习惯于用“荒”言说人力未及的环境,用“野”言说未经人力加工和培育的自然环境和动物的状态,即是例证。在工业文明之先,农耕文明的文化观念已经改变了人类对于自身同自然界的关系的具有原始的真实性的理解。人类思想在今天已经认识到这种改变是成问题的。但这种省思应当从对农耕文明的省思开始。
[Abstract]:Agricultural civilization China not only brings historical civilization progress to mankind, but also creates the reality of unique cultural concept. Its achievement makes the Chinese people proud, but also has the important aspect which is worth pondering. One important aspect is the understanding of the relationship between artificial activity and nature. The agglomeration of farming and production activities contains a destructive predatory attitude towards the natural ecological environment. The desire to get rid of the natural vegetation becomes particularly strong when the concentrated population puts too much pressure on the farming land that holds the population. The large-scale change of the natural ecological environment to expand the cultivation of land, especially large-scale water conservancy projects, is regarded as a symbol of man conquering nature. Nature is the mother of man, the pristine idea of the source of human life withdraws, and the reverence for the mother of human life disappears. The living style of farming civilization has deeply influenced people's conception of the relationship between man and nature. We are used to using "waste" to talk about the untouched environment, and "wild" to talk about the state of the natural environment and animals that have not been processed and cultivated by manpower, which is a case in point. Before the industrial civilization, the cultural concept of agricultural civilization has changed the original understanding of the relationship between human beings and nature. The human mind today has come to realize that this change is problematic. But this kind of thinking should begin with the thought of farming civilization.
