Why do orthodox historical narrative beginning with "study the occasion of Heaven" model? Formal ceremony held at the nobility and the gods Why do worship, the inextricable relationship Heaven? Book of the interpretation of ritual Why do not open around the beginning was the regular channel? Why myths about at different times always constantly being changed? A series of mystery behind the history and culture, what exactly hidden mystery and loss of memory? It all relates to a latent trait of Chinese culture - the myth of history and myth of thinking.
"Myth" and "history" with the concept in China is accompanied by the Ancient History of the twenties and thirties of the 20th century debate parties questioned the authenticity of the Chinese ancient history, when the "myth" with the Western concept was introduced just shortly after the publicity Science and rational enlightenment context, the authenticity of the myth as scientific and rational and logical thinking the opposite occurs, it means false and non-fictional imagination margin. Myth of the kernel in terms of learning the Patriots at the time, not just early in the Literary Imagination, also charged with looking for the cultural identity of national self-esteem and self-help of the task. After this, the myth of academic and institutional fragmentation has been detained in the back garden of literary imagination as the walls of the classroom concept of folklore, in the state of fragmentation and marginalization. The eighties of last century, the rise in China's "Archetypal" hot although the space to expand the literature, the study shows the great vitality of the myth, but it did not completely change the myth of sacrifice the long literary corner situation. At the same time, from the Renaissance to the myth, after the establishment of the modern myth of view, the international academic community is experiencing a shift from mythological to compare the mythology, anthropology, mythology study guide, update brings the concept of the myth of literature, history , philosophy, archeology and religion, psychology and other disciplines of paradigm shift, made a lot of break and find the mystery of the traditional culture of interdisciplinary breakthrough. Imagine not only broke the myth of literature and literary prototype of the barriers, a narrative of the origin of human culture, but also as a mode of human thought and belief throughout the foundation of human history.
On the other hand, along with the "myth" and "history" of the customary understanding of the formation of the "Axial Age" and "philosophical breakthrough" and other expressions of Western theory, which is common: the usual linear progress of history as the leading , the magic → Religion → Philosophy → irrational rational, divine → rational, secular religion → Diachronic evolution of such a mode of development of all civilizations. The narrative framework of the interpretation of all social civilization has become the established stage of development discourse. Now question is: which characteristics of Chinese culture to judge for it? With the "faith → rational", "→ rational religion," "Sacred → secular" evolution of the origin of Chinese culture and the replacement of the formation of the practice is questionable. In the current study has become an established pattern in front of the conclusions, we need to reflect on the courage of "rational → witchcraft" and "theory of device" to describe China's kingship in "God - who" relationship and the practice of ritual culture of origin. Theoretical model of such binary opposition, in fact, can not explain the history of Chinese culture and ancient tradition of the complex relationship between witch.
Based on the above frontier and domestic situation, "the myth of history" concept put forward, history and myth digestion diametrically opposed, the myth of literature from a narrow discipline-based concepts of liberation, to make it play a cultural code and the sacred narrative methodology role as the origin of Chinese civilization into a key. As everyone knows, the traditional Chinese culture for thousands of years did not like the ancient Greek philosophical and scientific tradition that has been replaced by the representative of reason, faith and thought as a myth, oral tradition from prehistoric times through the long text of history, cultural roots and culture has long been used as diffuse in the whole of Chinese civilization encoding latitude and longitude on the context. Therefore, the "myth of history" as the field more in the soil of Chinese traditional culture, discover the origin of civilization, the secret password and cultural construction.
"Myths and History Books" is made in this respect the creative attempt. The first series is the series mythology, cultural anthropology in a number of cutting-edge young scholars concentrating on the latest results, from a historical perspective on the myth of Chinese culture, a new interpretation of the classical canon.
