上溯一万年,我们说说浙江文化源流

2016-09-05 浙江发布 浙江发布



灿若星河的文明,是一个民族和国家的强大文化内涵支撑。但凡浙江人,自豪的从来就不止是每年GDP的增量,更多的是经历了几千年时光所累积下的深厚文化底蕴,并且历久弥新。

从距今1万年的上山文化,到7000—8000年前的跨湖桥文化,再到6000—7000年的河姆渡文化,还有6000多年前的马家浜文化和4000—5000年的良渚文化,都是浙江悠长史前文化的代表。

穿过岁月的那端,我们知道:这里是中国长江流域下游地区古老多姿的新石器时代文化的代表,证明了中国是世界上最早栽培水稻的国家,让我们一次次惊叹的黑陶和多样的玉器制作工艺……



众多的遗址和古迹,成为了浙江大地上一道极具人文气质的风景线,也让杭州、绍兴、宁波、衢州和临海成为了国家级的历史文化名城,氤氲出无限优雅的人文气息。

从西汉开始,是浙江文化异彩纷呈的开始。王充的一部《论衡》,对中国古代思想界产生了深刻的影响;谢灵运开创了中国山水诗派的先河;在唐诗宋词的年代,这里有骆宾王、孟郊、钱起、周邦彦、陆游……倡导“经世致用”的“浙东学派”,对中国近现代学术和海外学术,有着重大的启蒙作用。

  


两宋时期,中国完整的戏剧形式——戏文,在温州诞生,《琵琶记》成为南戏创新的高峰,被后世誉为“曲祖”。婺剧、绍剧、瓯剧、和剧,以及湖剧、甬剧、越剧等地方戏曲剧种,对丰富和发展中国戏曲艺术作出了不朽的贡献。



定居在会稽的王羲之,以“书圣”之名冠绝天下;孙位的《百逸图》与松竹画,影响着整个五代和两宋;黄公望的一幅《富春山居图》,让富春江的奇趣山水,成为了多少人梦中神往之地……



时光流转,章太炎、蔡元培、鲁迅、张元济、吴晗、范文澜、夏承焘……这些中国近现代史上最闪亮的标签,依然都刻着“浙江”的烙印,引领着后人。




Zhejiang: Land of History and Culture
Culture is the soul of a nation. We the people of Zhejiang feel proud of our home province not merely because our provincial GDP grows at a strong rate. We are also proud of our ancestral past and our culture, which has grown and blossomed over a period of thousands of years.


The prehistory of the province is represented by archaeological finds: the Shangshan Culture occurred about 10,000 years ago; the Kuahuqiao Culture is goes back to about 7,000 to 8,000 years ago; the Hemudu Culture dates back to 6,000 to 7,000 years ago; the Majiabang Culture is about 6,000 years old; and the Liangzhu Culture dates back to 4,000 to 5,000 years ago.
Now we know for certain that the prehistorical cultures unearthed in the present-day Zhejiang are representative examples of the Neolithic Age cultures flourishing in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, that China was the world’s first rice cultivator, and that the black pottery and a great variety of jade wares our ancestors made are amazing prehistoric artifacts.
The Kuahuqiao Culture in Xiaoshan is more than 8,000 years old. The archaeological find at Kuahuqiao pushed the history of civilizaition in Zhejiang back for 1,000 years. The canoe excavated at Kuahuqiao is the world’s most ancient canoe.

At the well-known Hemudu Site in Yuyao, archaeologists found well preserved unhusked rice, wooden building blocks with mortis and tenon joints, colorfully painted pottery bowls, pottery musical instruments such as Yun and bone flutes that could make sounds. All these artifacts pointed to a matriarchal society in primitive times.
In comparison with somewhat crude potteries unearthed elsewhere, the pottery and jade artifacts unearthed at Liangzhu sites look extremely delicate and original. People can’t help but wonder if these artifacts were really made 4,000 to 5,000 years ago.
The Qianshanyang Site, seven kilometers south of Huzhou City in northern Zhejiang, is a significent chapter in the history of silk. Two fabric pieces unearthed here date back to 4,200 to 4,400 years ago. These are the world’s earliest fabrics made of silk produced by domesticated silkworms. The site is officially designated as the world’s cradle of silk.
These historical sites and numerous places of historical interests are part of the province’s cultural landscape. Their existences helped Hangzhou, Shaoxing, Ningbo, Quzhou and Linhai get designated as national historical and culturla cities.
Zhejiang began to shine on a national scale culturally as of the Western Han Dynasty. Wang Chong wrote Critical Essays, which profoundly impacted the thinking of ancient China; Xie Lingyun wrote landscape poems, pioneering the way to the rise of nature poetry; in the Tang and the Song dynasties when poetry flourished and blossomed, Zhejiang produced prominent poets such as Luo Binwang, Meng Jiao, Qian Qi, Zhou Bangyan, and Lu You; the East Zhejiang School promoted pragmatism in classic studies, playing an enlightening role in modern academic circles at home and abroad.
During the Song Dynasty (960-1279), Wenzhou in southern Zhejiang gave birth to a complete theater form. The Legend of Pipa is considered the landmark of South Opera. Scholars have agreed that this complete opera play was the grandmother of all regoinal operas in China. Zhejiang gave birth to a large number of regional operas such as Wuju Opera, Shaoju Opera, Ouju Opera, Heju Opera, Huju Opera, Yongju Opera, and Yueju Opera. They played a significant role in enriching and developing Chinese theater.

Wang Xizhi, who settled down in Kuaiji (the present-day Shaoxing), was and is lauded as the Sage of Calligraphy; Sun Wei, a painter of the Tang, influenced the Five Dynasties up to the Song Dynasty with his figure and landscape masterpieces; Huang Gongwang, an artist of the Yuan, created Mountain Dwelling on Fuchun River, which makes people dream of the legendary beauty of the river.
In modern times, Zhejiang produced prominent scholars such as Zhang Taiyan, Cai Yuanpei, Lu Xun, Zhang Yuanji, Wu Han, Fan Wenlan, Xia Chengtao. These big names in the history of modern China were all from Zhejiang.
