    The Important Function of the Red Culture and Its Realization Path in Strengthening the Primary Mission of the Communists
    WANG Chunxia, XU Guanghui
    2021, 36(1):  1-6. 
    Abstract ( 25 )   PDF (2149KB) ( 8 )  
    The Red Culture is an original and high-quality vehicle to carry on the primary mission of the Communist Party. It is a walking textbook, a living example and a living specimen to carry out the primary mission of the Communist Party. In the new era, we must base on the characteristics of the Red Culture to give full play to its important functions in strengthening the Communists' primary mission, such as optimizing cognition, strengthening identification, and solidifying behavior. The Red Culture should be integrated into the “main classroom” of the party school at all levels, the “big classroom” of practical activities and the “personal classroom” of daily life.

    Disciplining the Party strictly in an overall manner is both the core and key to modernizing governance of the state. As the two share the same value objectives, they are thus in great affinity in the following termsguiding thought and ideology, running of both the Party and the state by system, rules of the Party and laws of the state, as well as abilities of governing both the Party and the state. By seeking the path to realize affinity between the two, positive interactive effect between them can be realized, expanded and advanced to the furthest possible extent.

    Misunderstandings and Twist in Chinese Cuisine Culture Research and the Food Cultural Field Theory — Second Thought on Interpretation and Usage of the Term “Cuisine Family”
    ZHAO Rongguang
    2021, 36(1):  15-20. 
    Abstract ( 45 )   PDF (2231KB) ( 13 )  
    Since the 1980s, Chinese cuisine culture research has been trapped in a self-important but self-confining notion of “Chinese cooking being the world's best”. An appropriate definition of “cuisine family” should be roughly “category of dishes of similar flavor and style”, over interpretation of which entails mis-judgment. Naming dishes after places is a theory that emphasizes natural and social ecology as the basic and core features of one particular cuisine culture, a practice that demonstrates the place of origin, natural and social elements (ingredients, customs and ethnics) and differences among the areas in question. Well based on four reasons, naming dishes after provinces is a practice in agreement to the previous practice to some extent in both reasoning and principle. The term “Chinese cuisine” denotes a variety of categories of dishes by native Chinese, in Chinese methods, from Chinese materials and with Chinese seasonings to delight the long-accustomed Chinese palate. The aesthetic doctrine of Chinese cuisine is to follow the Ten-merit Principlequality, fragrance, color, shape, tableware, taste, appropriateness, procedure, environment, and enjoyment. The best instrument for serving and eating Chinese food is chopsticks. Cuisine culture is a result of the theory of food cultural field theory–the survival space for central cities that promote the food service industry and cultural diversity.

    My Opinion on Nature of Cooking: a Culture, a Science or an Art
    CHEN Xuezhi
    2021, 36(1):  21-24. 
    Abstract ( 30 )   PDF (2202KB) ( 3 )  
    This paper is a presentation of opinions of the author regarding the viewpoint that “cooking is a science and an art” advanced by a high-ranking figure of the field of food culture in 1992. On the basis of recognized authoritative definitions of science and art, the author contends that 1) cooking cannot be called a science as it contains not only scientific elements but also many unscientific factors and methods; and 2) cooking is not an art as it has a tendency for aesthetic pursuit.

    Analysis on the Glutinous Food Culture and Its Origin of the Yi People of South Yunnan
    LONG Luogui
    2021, 36(1):  25-32. 
    Abstract ( 20 )   PDF (2217KB) ( 5 )  
    The Yi, together with the Dai, the Hani, the Zhuang, the Buyi, the Miao, the Yao, the Lahu and other peoples inhabiting south Yunnan, have created and passed down the glutinous food culture. From the perspectives of ethnology, botany, folklore and religion, this paper analyzes and discusses the development and varieties of glutinous rice cultivated by the Yi people in south Yunnan as well as the origin and specific forms of glutinous food culture. The research indicates that the Yi people in south Yunnan have a long history of growing glutinous rice of a large variety and have a colorful glutinous food culture. Likewise, the author contends that their glutinous food culture has been a medium through which their ancestors and ancestral gods communicated with the natural gods, a linkage connecting kins and even villages, a symbol of their normative ethics, a holy offering to their deities and, most importantly, a necessary choice and concrete embodiment of their wisdom gained through millennia of struggle for survival.

    On Thinking Levels as Revealed in Fu, Bi and Xing and Their Chinese Characteristics
    GAO Bo
    2021, 36(1):  33-39. 
    Abstract ( 25 )   PDF (2317KB) ( 6 )  
    Chinese poetic techniques fu, bi and xing, meaning description, simile and association respectively, represent characteristics, development route and levels of primitive thinking as well as the thinking process from concrete presentation to phenomena of discovery of similarities and then association between them. Of the three, xing means “overall analogy” or “symbolism” to be exact. Due to special poetic practice and cultural tradition, it is also used to start a composition for phonetic purposes. It therefore represents universality and high levels of thinking on the one hand and typical Chinese poetic expression and thinking on the other.

    A Study on the Nature of Shi Jia Zhi Shuo with Xie Zhen's Poetic Theory — On Notions of Pre- and Post-Word Meanings and the Relationship between Word and Meaning
    CHEN Shengzheng
    2021, 36(1):  40-47. 
    Abstract ( 22 )   PDF (2364KB) ( 3 )  
    An idea of the artists and calligraphers first borrowed by the Tang poetic theorists, the theory “plot before the pen”was advocated in the Song Dynasties and began to thrive in the Yuan and Ming Dynasties. However, a new theory–theme along with the pen–aiming at improving it was proposed by poetic theorist Xie Zhen in the Ming Dynasty that introduced notions such as “pre-word meaning” and “post-word meaning”. In fact, developing the plot and/or the theme either before or along with the pen is just the same literary creation process from two approaches that can coexist and even complement each other because both agree in revealing the relationship and expression between the word and the meaning. Therefore, to a certain extent, Shi Jia Zhi Shuo can be regarded as an in-depth explanation of Xie Zhen's own experience in writing poems to manifest the theory that “theme comes along writing”, so as to provide guidance and reference for other poets

    Commemoration of an Individual: Enthusiasm and Difficulties — Research on Commemoration of Lu Xun by Ai Wu
    WANG Jing
    2021, 36(1):  55-62. 
    Abstract ( 27 )   PDF (2282KB) ( 8 )  
    “Research on commemoration of Lu Xun” is a subject of agreed importance. One cannot talk about the massive “commemorating community of Lu Xun” without encountering the leftist writers, one of whom was Ai Wu who, after the death of Lu Xun, engaged in continuous commemoration of and research on Lu Xun. His research concerned two major aspects1) praising Lu Xun's fighting spirit and love for mankind like most other commemorating comrades; and 2) studying Lu Xun's novel writing and combining it with his own exploration on novel writing and thus enhancing his own novel writing skills while enlarging the reading population of Lu Xun's works. Furthermore, knowledge of the difficulties of Ai Wu in commemorating Lu Xun will arguably help us understand the difficult lives of intellectuals commemorating Lu Xun year after year since the 1930s.

    Language Materials of the Yi People Recorded in Annals of Pu'an Prefecture of Emperor Qianlong
    QIAO Lizhi, YE Shuquan
    2021, 36(1):  63-73. 
    Abstract ( 27 )   PDF (2452KB) ( 3 )  
    It is usually difficult to trace the diachronic development of languages of minority ethnic groups due to insufficient written materials but local annals, fortunately, can provide rich language resources for such studies from the diachronic perspective. Annals of Pu'an Prefecture compiled during the reign of Emperor Qianlong (1736-1796) record rich Yi language materials of various categories. Carefully collecting and categorizing these materials are of great value for investigating the inheritance, development and evolution of the Yi vocabulary and grammar in a relatively long historical process.

    New Evidence on Interactions of Tao Xigao and Tao Ting with Tao Gong – All Disciples of Philosopher Wang Yangming (Ⅱ)
    ZHU Heshuang, CAO Xiaohong
    2021, 36(1):  78-98. 
    Abstract ( 23 )   PDF (3711KB) ( 33 )  
    Huangyan, Zhejiang Province was the hometown of Tao Zongyi, a renowned writer and historian of the late 14th century. About two centuries later his descendants were sent to military exile in Yao'an Prefecture, Yunnan Province by the Ming government. Nurtured by their family tradition of success in the imperial examinations for promotion to officialdom, Tao Xigao, Tao Ting and Tao Gong - disciples of the 16th-century philosopher Wang Yangming (represented by Luo Rufang and Li Zaizhi) - eventually changed the academic scenario of Yunnan, with achievements in elementary schooling, Zen and calligraphy in particular, in late Ming Dynasty at the turn of the 17th century. Meanings of their pseudonyms, however, revealed their frustration and despair of living their helpless lives in the forlorn frontier regions, explaining their hope of freeing themselves from the limitation of their “family heartland blood” with the help of Jing Shan Zang.

    Textual Research on Yinsheng Prefecture (II)
    JIE Shunbao, YANG Qiuli
    2021, 36(1):  99-113. 
    Abstract ( 43 )   PDF (2363KB) ( 4 )  
    In historical records of the Yuan Dynasty (1279–1368), information concerning whereabouts of Yinsheng Prefecture (jiedu) during the periods of the Nanzhao (738–902) and Dali (937–1253) kingdoms and its relationship with Kainan Prefecture is unclear. The region of Kainan Prefecture is often referred to as Yinsheng Prefecture and Kainan itself has virtually disappeared, a phenomenon that has survived history. As a matter of fact, both Kainan and Yinsheng prefectures existed, simultaneously but exercising jurisdiction over different areas. Then how did it come that Kainan Prefecture disappeared? It was the result of a decision made by the Dali Kingdom, on its wane, to move Yinsheng Prefecture to the region of Kainan Prefecture under pressure of the northward-advancing Dai people. According to some records, Yinsha Luodian was actually Yinsheng Prefecture (called fu at that time) in the Tang Dynasty (618–907) but later adopted a Dai name due to the eastward expansion of Si Kefa in late Yuan Dynasty, so people of the two following dynasties (Ming and Qing, 1368–1911) had no idea where it had been. That's why information about these two prefectures in question became unclear. Clarification of the historical evolution mentioned above of these two prefectures-Kainan and Yinsheng-can tell us what and where they truly were and such an understanding can be of great significance to research of history, both that of Dali and other local historical identities.

    Difficulties and Strategies in the Construction of Smart Libraries of Local Universities
    LV Chun, LI Zhongliang
    2021, 36(1):  122-128. 
    Abstract ( 24 )   PDF (2584KB) ( 5 )  
    With the advent of the era of information including big data and intelligent technology and the launch of the national informationization strategy in the 13th Five-year Plan period, the library world has set off a “smart library” research boom, using all kinds of modern information technologies to improve their abilities of information resources construction, management and services. As the research frontier and practice position of smart library, university libraries have developed rapidly in recent years. However, construction of smart libraries in local universities should be planned by taking into full consideration the local realities, such as limited financial resources, lack of personnel, difficulty in technology introduction as well as backward ideas in smart service provision and management. Therefore, the authors propose some strategies for construction of smart libraries in local universities from the physical perception layer, data resource layer, software system layer, application service layer, demand layer and management layer.

    Analysis on Health Education Model of AIDS and STD for College Students — Taking Peer Education (POL) of Chuxiong Normal University as an Example
    ZHOU Zhengqing, ZHANG Xiaobing
    2021, 36(1):  129-136. 
    Abstract ( 13 )   PDF (2415KB) ( 3 )  
    Due to the particularity of AIDS and STD, the effect of health education regarding them in colleges and universities is far from satisfactory. The educational subject of college students' peer education model comes from the students who live and study together with the educational objects. The homogeneity of identity of both sides can effectively eliminate estrangement and establish a relationship of trust, promote the extensive and in-depth transmission of knowledge and concepts of AIDS and STD to the students. At the same time, this education model can also enable POL peers to obtain systematic AIDS and STD knowledge training and improve their comprehensive quality.

    On Practice and Exploration of Introduction of “Cases with Yunnan Characteristics” into Ideology and Politics Courses of Local Universities
    LI Jinlian
    2021, 36(1):  145-155. 
    Abstract ( 20 )   PDF (2268KB) ( 4 )  
    The attempt to introduce “cases with Yunnan characteristics” into ideology and politics courses to enhance the students' love for their home and country by giving them the chance to write and tell stories of modern history and other red-culture topics about their own hometowns needs further exploration. After introducing the idea, implementation and process of the project, the paper, departing from a presentation of achievements attained and efforts made to identify existing problems, proceeds to suggest concrete measures for the local universities to strengthen sense of identification with wider application of “cases with Yunnan characteristics” to ideology and politics courses and enhance teaching effectiveness.
