摘要中國號為「禮義之邦」，「禮」對於中國人、家族、歷史、文化、政治發展等各方面都有深遠的影響。在傳統中國，「禮」的內涵包括貴族的飲食、婚姻、喪葬、祭祀等；而其傳播的型態，則主要透過儒家三《禮》經典及儒者講授，屬於貴族之學。但「禮」做為一般人民生活的規範準則，很早就出現「俗化」的現象，此在近現代中國人的婚禮儀式中甚為明顯。從另一個角度而言，「禮」的起源，與宗教相關；而宗教理論也可以彌補「禮」在形上思想的不足，因此，「禮」也可能出現「宗教化」的現象，此在近現代中國人的喪葬儀式中亦甚為明顯。本文將針對這兩個現象加以探討。關鍵字：禮、婚禮、喪禮、俗化、宗教化Although “etiquette” is the essence of traditional culture in China, due to the development of modern society, its perspective should include the requirement of human sympathy, transformation of objects, and the role or duty associated with one’s title so that an appropriate manner can be well maintained. The times have changed and if the traditional etiquette cannot follow the steps of civilization, it will be eliminated. Contemporary Chinese weddings have become popularized and funerals religionized; however, they cannot completely meet the expectations of the Confucianists, but rather follow the development of etiquette, while conforming to the principles underlying the legislation and implementation of the rules of etiquette. Furthermore, integration can be found in the phenomenon of popularized weddings and religionized funerals, fully making it obvious that religious behavior has combined with the local wedding ceremonies. Because of the influence of Taoism and Buddhism, local folklore characteristics can be seen in funeral rites. As a result, if the connotations of the etiquette are maintained, whether it is a popularized or religionized ceremony, such etiquette can still be accepted by the society.

Li Xiangqun, the famous Chinese sculptor, managed to evolve his creative style developing a confident and fine ability to create forms, a special and distinctive perspective on reality, skillfully mastering the refined expressive language of sculpture and creating sculptural works filled with spiritual value, the spirit of the times and a sense of humanism. In this paper, the importance of humanistic factors in the fine sculptural art is emphasized by analyzing a part of Li Xiangqun’s works, transferring the experience of understanding the style and power of involvement of Li Xiangqun’s sculpture to the reader, as well as the experience of sensory feelings of humanistic elements in Li Xiangqun’s work. The embodiment of humanistic values in the material form is the spirit and quintessence of figurative sculpture, this is what distinguishes figurative sculpture as a phenomenon from the refined basic image of reality in the form of sculpture. This spirit is the parameter with which it is necessary to correlate the sculptor’s work. The works of Li Xiangqun require the highest attention to ourselves, they are a classic example of the embodiment of the elements of humanism in sculpture. Li Xiangqun has been universally recognized as a leader and devotee of contemporary Chinese fine sculpture; he has made an indisputable contribution to the development of modern Chinese fine sculpture and its humanistic spirit.

Dominant design narratives about “the future” contain many contemporary manifestations of “orientalism” and Anti-Chineseness. In US discourse, Chinese people are often characterized as a single communist mass and the primary market for which this future is designed. By investigating the construction of modern Chinese pop culture in Chinese internet and artificial intelligence, and discussing different cultural expressions across urban, rural, and queer Chinese settings, I challenge external Eurocentric and orientalist perceptions of techno-culture in China, positing instead a view of Sinofuturism centered within contemporary Chinese contexts.

In recent years, with the development of "guiding outline of Ideological and political construction of college curriculum" and "five focuses", the ideological and political education in Colleges and Universities has become more and more important. With the development of the strategy of "Ideological and political education of curriculum", the infiltration of traditional culture into the ideological and political education in Colleges and universities has become the focus of the school and society. From the perspective of culture itself, Chinese excellent traditional culture is a vivid teaching material for college students' patriotism education, an important resource to cultivate socialist core values, and an important source to nourish socialist moral construction. Therefore, in the context of the new era, college teachers should base on the actual development of students, grasp the connotation of the times, optimize the curriculum system, wake up the students' sense of cultural identity and belonging, and truly implement the fundamental task of "moral education".
