神 : 龙出世六千年 Six Millennia of the Divine Dragon: The Emergence and Evolution of Chinese Dragon Culture
Overview
"The mention of ""dragon"" conjures visions of majesty and form, stirring profound inspiration-a timeless cultural symbol deeply rooted in millennia of Chinese tradition.
In modern times, China is hailed as the ""Oriental Dragon,"" and its people as ""descendants of the dragon."" Traces of this emblem permeate script evolution, artifact design, and artistic imagery.
In 1988 (the Year of the Dragon), scholar Sun Ji composed a series of Odes to Dragon Artifacts.
In 2000 (another Year of the Dragon), Sun Ji authored the extensive commentary Six Millennia of the Divine Dragon: The Emergence and Evolution of Chinese Dragon Culture for a dragon-themed cultural exhibition.
Through decades of artifact research, Sun Ji meticulously decoded the dragon's symbolic presence across history.
In 2024 (the Year of the Dragon), we compile Sun Ji's essays on dragons into a volume, tracing their legacy through scripts, artifacts, and paintings.
Sun Ji's rigorous scholarship guides readers to pause amid vast historical records and intricate artifacts, revealing how the dragon's essence has profoundly shaped Chinese rituals, spirituality, and daily life for thousands of years.
提到"龙",人们会想到很多相关表述,会想象一种气势、一种造型,升腾一种心潮澎湃。这是几千年中国文化中一个不可或缺的、世代相沿的文化符号。
直至现代,中国被称作"东方巨龙",中国人被称作"龙的传人"。这一文化符号从文字演变、器物造形、图像绘画中都可以寻得其踪迹。
1988年农历戊辰龙年,孙机先生写有一组《咏龙文物》的组诗。
2000年农历庚辰龙年,为"龙文化特展",孙机先生写有长篇解说文字--《神龙出世六千年》。
在长期的文物研究中,孙机先生对其中出现的诸多龙元素都曾有过细致阐释。
2024年农历甲辰龙年,我们将孙机先生论及龙的有关文章集为一册,在文字演变、器物造形、图像绘画中寻觅龙的踪迹。
孙机先生绵密的考证,让我们在广袤的文献中、在文物的细节里停足注目,体会几千年间龙的元素已经深深浸润中国人的礼仪、精神以及物质生活的方方面面。
