中西方颜色文化差异论文开题报告
哇。你这个是什么题目。颜色词背后的文化。。难道你订题目前,没有考虑能不能写的麽。你的课题。你这个文章,哪来资料?不要说写。
首先我觉得这个题目太大了,可以narrow down一下。要选个相对狭窄的切入点,比如说从一些著作的翻译中,译者如何处理颜色词汇的翻译来看。 如果你确实想从颜色词的翻译角度谈中西文化差异,推荐你用《红楼梦》。我毕业论文是写的“《红楼梦》英译本中女性角色的性格缺失”,写的时候对其英译本做过很多调查,也看到过已经有人对色彩词反映的中西方文化差异这一方面有所研究,你可以去参考。 仅列述自己的一些想法,希望能帮助到你~

从颜色词看中西方文化差异英语论文开题报告
Chinese and Western cultural differences in the performance of every aspect of daily life from the greeting 、 term diet and cultural differences in the way of thinking in the abstract, such as differences everywhere, from the West focus on the following colors to express the difference between Chinese and Western cultural differences in areas such as a wedding First, in the West to express the color difference Different colors in different languages is not expressed in the same The representative of China in a sense, the West has a meaning that even the "color" to understand the meaning of the (A) red (red) Whether in China or in the English-speaking countries, often in red and festive celebrations or day- Calendar, red font used these days, therefore, red letter day: refers to the "Day" or "happy " It also refers to the red "liabilities" or "loss" because people are always negative in red to So there are these phrases: red figure deficit in the red loss In common with the Chinese "red" words, translated into English, may not necessarily use the "red" for example: brown sugar brown sugar red wine red wine (B) yellow Yellow in English and Chinese in the extended meaning of the differences are In English, yellow can be said that the "timid, cowardly, despicable," meaning, for example: a yellow dog despicable, cowardly people a yellow livered coward Chinese yellow symbol of the term is sometimes vulgar, vulgar and obscene, indecent indecency means, such as yellow film, erotica, yellow CD, and so These in the name of "yellow" in English and "yellow" has nothing to However, in another English word blue is the color used to indicate the kind of meaning in Chinese, such as the blue jokes (dirty joke), blue films (yellow film) Second, the cultural differences in Western wedding First of all, in Western wedding culture and the first in the West in thinking about the differences: the Chinese people more conservative, like excitement, more old-fashioned thinking, so in the history of China for thousands of years the entire wedding customs did not change The thinking in the West is more open to the requirements of the wedding will be lower, they will be the climax of the wedding in the church: the sacred as the "wedding march" into the red carpet, Jiao Mei's father, the bride linked hands Rose walked slowly to the groom, the bride's father, daughter to the groom's hand on hand, her daughter's life will be entrusted to the groom, all eyes followed the couple, filled with well-being in their Second, the result of cultural differences wedding in the West because the West in a different China is mainly Buddhist, but the West is mainly C Therefore, the Western wedding is to be held in the church and the priest is Zhuhun R China's traditional customs of the most important part of the Bai Tiandi is, the worship heaven and earth even after the ceremony has 中西方文化差异表现在方方面面,从日常生活的打招呼用语、饮食文化等差异到思维方式等抽象方面的差异无所不在,下面着重从中西方颜色表达的差异,中西方婚礼文化差异等方面阐述。 一、中西方颜色表达的差异 不同颜色在不同语言中表达的方式并不一样。在中国代表一种意义,在西方又表示一种涵义,甚至对“颜色”的涵义理解恰恰相反。(一)red(红色)无论是在英语国家还是在中国,红色往往与庆祝活动或喜庆日子有关。日历中,这些日子常用红色字体,因此,red letter day:指的是“纪念日”或“喜庆的日子”。红色还指“负债”或“亏损”,因为人们总是用红笔登记负数。于是就有了这些词组:red figure赤字 in the red亏损汉语中常用的带“红”字的词语,翻译成英语,可不一定用“red”例如: 红糖brown sugar 红酒red wine (二) yellow黄色在英语和汉语中的引申含义差别比较大。英语中,yellow可以表示“胆小、卑怯、卑鄙”的意思,例如:a yellow dog 可鄙的人,卑鄙的人a yellow livered 胆小鬼汉语中黄色一词有时象征低级趣味、色情庸俗、下流猥亵的意思,如黄色电影、黄色书刊、黄色光碟等等。这些名称中的“黄”与英语中的“yellow”无关。然而,英语中另一个颜色词blue却常用来表示汉语中这类意思,如blue jokes(下流的玩笑), blue films(黄色电影)等。 二、中西方婚礼文化差异 首先,中西方婚礼文化差异首先和中西方人在思维方面的差异有关:中国人比较保守,喜欢热闹,思维较古板,所以在中国历史几千年的时间里整个婚礼的习俗并没有多大的变化。而西方人的思想则比较开放,对于婚礼的要求也比较低,他们婚礼的高潮则是在教堂中:随着神圣的《婚礼进行曲》步入鲜红的地毯,娇美的新娘挽着父亲手捧玫瑰慢慢向新郎走去,新娘的父亲将女儿的手放在新郎的手上,将女儿的一生托付给新郎,所有人的目光注视着这对新人,幸福洋溢在他们的脸上。其次,造成中西方婚礼文化差异的原因是中西方不同的宗教。中国是以佛教为主,而西方则是基督教为主的。所以西方的婚礼是在教堂中举行而主婚人则是神甫。中方的传统婚俗中的最重要环节就是拜天地,拜了天地以后就算是礼成了。
Western novels in comparison First, Western novels in the history of the development of Western novels are based on myths and legends of its In ancient times, science developed, out of fear of nature, the working people out of the imagination is the key to many of the world "God", describing the personification of God is a myth; who will describe the deified, that is China opened the world's Pan

中西方颜色文化差异论文
从根本上讲,在中国文化中,颜色的象征是基于过去中国的封建统治、封建迷信及其原始、落后的科学、教育状况而形成的,所以颜色的象征意义有相当强烈的政治化和神秘化倾向。 而西方文化中的颜色象征则更多地得益于西方民族开放性及科学、教育的普及程度,其象征意义少了神秘,多了些理性,使根据其词义更易理解。
浅谈中西方对颜色的看法差异 摘要 英汉两种语言中存在着大量的表示颜色的词汇,如黑、白、红、黄等等。本文第一部分为引言部分,主要讲述颜色在中西方之间差异的理论知识。第二部分分析其在英汉中的不同联想意义并探寻其文化历史根源,以便更好地了解中西方民族文化的差异,使其对英语学习及对促进中西文化交流和翻译实践有一定的现实指导意义。第三部分为结论部分,总结并阐述了笔者的主要观点。一、 引言 在人类语言中,颜色词语表现出的独特魅力,令人刮目相看。在汉英语言中,表示各种不同颜色或色彩的词都很丰富。我们不仅要注意观察它们本身的基本意义,更要留心它们含义深广的象征意义。美国语言学家萨丕尔(Edward Sapir;1884—1939)在《语言论》中指出“语言不能脱离文化而存在,就是说不能脱离社会流传下来的,决定我们生活风貌和信仰的总体。”(周方珠,2004)。作为语言基本要素的词汇蕴含着丰富的民族文化信息,也就是说它的形成和发展受到了各民族文化的影响,是民族文化的反映。颜色是一种自然现象,附着在各种事物中,使得大千世界五彩缤纷,充满了各种各样绚丽色彩。人们对各种颜色的认识大体是一致的,但由于各民族之间的地理、历史、思维、民族心理、宗教等文化背景方面的差异,人们对各种颜色所产生的联想不尽相同。因此,每个民族的语言都包含着大量的颜色词。同样地,中西方两种文化之间存在着差异,这使得中西方人们对表示颜色的方法和用词不尽相同,对同一颜色的理解和使用也有所不同。可以说,汉英颜色词的对比在一定程度上反映了中西文化的差异。二、颜色差异(一)红色 从英汉“红色”的基本联想意义,可以看出虽然红色在人们视觉上都是一种自然的颜色,但在大多数情况下,红色在英汉语中所指的内涵意义却截然相反。在中国“红色”一般指代喜庆、幸福、快乐,如过新年时,门上贴红对联;结婚时,新娘穿大红色的衣服、盖红盖头、贴大红喜字,被称为“红喜事”;长辈给新婚夫妇送红包;恭喜促成他人美好婚姻的叫“红娘”;新生婴儿时要煮“红鸡蛋”等。而在英语中“red”贬多褒少,如“red light district”(红灯区)这是一个众人皆知的委婉语,用以指城市中从事色情活动的场所。印第安人被蔑称为 Red-Indian或 redskin ;共产主义者常被蔑称为“Red”(赤色分子);like a red rag to a bull 意为惹人生气,惹人恼火,其转义于在斗牛场上,斗牛士挥舞红布激怒公牛,公牛见到“红”就怒不可遏,不顾一切向前冲。红布是惹它发怒的根源。因此,red rag常指“使人或牛等发怒的东西”(侯宁海,2001)。 (二)白色在中国文化中,白色与红色正好相反是一个基本禁忌词,体现了中国人在物质上和精神上的摈弃和厌恶。如自古以来亲人死后家属要披麻带孝(穿白色孝服)办“白事”,要设白色灵堂,出殡时要打白幡。而西方文化中白色的象征意义则着眼于它本身的色彩。西方人认为白色高雅纯洁,所以它是西方文化的崇尚色。它象征纯真无邪。如(1)a white soul纯洁的心灵,(2)wh it wedding新娘 穿白礼服的婚礼;它又象征正直、诚实,如(1)a white spirit正直的精神, (2)white m en高尚、有教养的人,(3)white hand廉洁、诚实;它也象征幸运吉利。(三)黑色黑色在中国文化原来里只有沉重的神秘之感,是一种庄重而严肃的色调。它的象征意义由于 受西方文化的影响而显得较为复杂。一方面它象 征严肃、正义,另一方面它又由于其本身的黑暗无光给人以阴险、毒辣和恐怖的感 觉。它象征邪恶、反动。黑色(black)是西方文化中的基本禁忌色,体现了西方人精神上的摈弃和厌恶。它象征死亡、凶兆、灾难。(四)黄色黄色在中国文化中是红色的一种发展变异,如旧时人们把宜于办大事的日子称为“黄道吉日”,但是它更 代表权势、威严。所以黄色便为历代封 建帝王所专有,普通人是不能随便使用"黄色"的,如"黄袍"是天子的"龙 袍",在原始宗教中,中华民族把龙视为崇拜的图腾。在传说中,这一神灵之物,遍身鳞甲,是金黄色的。基于这个原因“黄色”在封建社会一直是人们所偏爱的颜色。因此,黄颜色有了神圣与祥和的象征意(安俊丽2002)。西方文化中 的黄 (yellow)使人联想到背叛耶稣的犹太(Judas)所穿衣服的颜色,所以黄色带有不好的象征意义,它除了表示低级趣味的报刊、毫无文学价值的书籍(如 yellow press黄色报刊,yellow journalism黄色办报作风)。三、结束语 文化有历史继承性,但文化又要发展,虽然在继承性中发展,终究是有变化的,发展就是变异。人类认识和使用颜色的历史悠久,颜色词是每一个民族文化和语言中不可缺少的重要组成部分。在学习和理解英汉颜色词时,不仅要掌握其表层语义信息的传递,也要重视其深层文化信息的传递,通过不断的对比研究,认识和掌握汉英颜色词不同的文化意蕴。这不仅有利于提高英语学习水平,还对促进和加强中西文化之间的交流和融合有一定的指导意义。参考文献[1] 周方珠翻译多元论[M]北京:中国对外翻译出版公司4[2] 侯宁海英语习语大典[M]北京:中国科学技术大学出版社184-185 [3] 安俊丽黄色彩对汉语词汇的文化影响[J]山东社会科学报54-55另外再提供一种实例咖啡色 为什么东西方人的眼睛颜色不同 东方人是黑眼珠,西方人是蓝眼珠,这是人们所共知的。那么,为什么种族不同的人,眼珠的颜色也会不同呢? 这里所说的眼珠是指眼球前面中间部分,这个部位是由角膜、虹膜和瞳孔组成的。由于角膜是无色透明的,那么眼珠的颜色就是虹膜的颜色。 那么,为什么东方人的眼珠是黑色,而西方人的眼珠是浅蓝色的呢?这要从眼球虹膜的结构上来谈。 科学家研究发现,我们人类眼球的虹膜由五层组织构成的。它们是内皮细胞层、前界膜、基质层、后界膜和后上皮层。这五层组织中,基质层、前界膜和后上皮层中含有许多色素细胞,在这些细胞中所含色素量的多少就决定了虹膜的颜色。 色素细胞中所含色素越多,虹膜的颜色就越深,眼珠的颜色也就越黑;而色素越少,虹膜的颜色就越浅,则眼珠的颜色就越淡。 色素细胞中的色素含量与皮肤颜色是一致的,并且与种族的遗传有关系。东方人是有色人种,虹膜中色素含量多,所以,眼珠看上去呈黑色;西方人是白色人种,虹膜中色素含量少,基质层中分布有血管,所以,看上去眼珠呈浅蓝色。 虹膜又称“虹彩”,位于眼睛角膜和晶状体之间,中间有中间有一直径5~4mm的圆孔,这就是我们熟悉的瞳孔。 虹膜中含有色素,其颜色因人种而有所不同,人们通常所说“眼睛的颜色”实际上就是虹膜的颜色。不同人种的虹膜是有差别的,黄种人含色素较多,呈棕褐色,远看如黑色,而白种人色素少,呈浅灰色或淡蓝色。在虹膜的表层有凹凸不平的皱褶,据科学家研究,这些皱褶像指纹一样每个人都不相同,而且不会改变。根据虹膜的这一特点,制成了电子密码门锁,当开门者把眼睛凑近扫描孔,扫描装置就会将虹膜的图像扫描下来,并与预先设置好的图形进行对比,如果吻合,门锁自动打开。虹膜组织内有调节瞳孔大小的肌肉,即瞳孔括约肌和瞳孔开大肌,这两者分别由副交感的动眼神经和交感神经所支配,两者的协调维持着瞳孔大小的相对稳定,通过瞳孔直径大小的变化,可使到达视网膜上的光线亮度保持适宜、稳定的水平。
中西方颜色差异论文
中国的是黄色,西方的是白色。
在人类语言中,颜色词语表现出的独特魅力,令人刮目相看。在汉英语言中,表示各种不同颜色或色彩的词都很丰富。我们不仅要注意观察它们本身的基本意义,更要留心它们含义深广的象征意义,因为颜色的象征意义在不同民族语言中往往有不同的特点,有些特点甚至构成了人们对经过引伸、转义以后颜色的崇尚和禁忌。由于我国与绝大部分英语国家相隔万里,地理位置、自然现象、历史背景、审美心理等千差万别,人们对于颜色的感受和表达不尽相同。这样,颜色的象征意义在中西文化之间自然又会产生很大的差异。本文拟就中西文化中词语的颜色、词语的象征意义作一些对比和探讨,以求教于同行和读者。从科学的定义来说,颜色是由物体发射、反射或透过一定光波所引起的视觉现象,是人眼视觉的一种基本特征。在西方文化中,颜色的象征意义往往比较直接,一般是用客观事物的具体颜色来象征某些抽象的文化含义,所以更易追溯其语义理据和逻辑理据。而中国文化中的颜色内涵和象征意义也十分丰富,颜色词的象征意义是多元的。下面我们就中西文化中颜色的不同象征意义进行具体描述:1.红色红色是我国文化中的基本崇尚色,它体现了中国人在精神和物质上的追求。它象征着吉祥、喜庆,如把促成他人美好婚姻的人叫“红娘”,喜庆日子要挂大红灯笼、贴红对联、红福字;男娶女嫁时贴大红“喜”字,把热闹、兴旺叫做“红火”;形容繁华;它也象征顺利、成功,如人的境遇很好被称为“走红”、“红极一时”。西方文化中的红色(red)则是一个贬意相当强的词,是“火”、“血”的联想,它象征着残暴、流血,如red revenge血@腥复@仇,它又象征激进、暴@力革@命,如a red revolution 赤@色革@命,它还象征着放@荡、淫@秽,如a red light district花街柳@巷(红@灯区)。2.白色在中国文化中,白色与红色相反,是一个基本禁忌词,体现了中国人在物质和精神上的摈弃和厌恶。在中国古代的五方说中,西方是刑天杀神,主萧杀之秋,所以白色象征死亡、凶兆。如自古以来亲人死后家属要披麻戴孝办“白事”,要设白色灵堂,出殡时要打白幡。它也象征失败、愚蠢、无利可得,如在战争中失败的一方总是打着“白旗” 表示投降,称智力低下的人为“白痴”,它还象征奸邪、阴 险,如“唱白脸”、“白脸”奸雄。西方文化中的白色象征意义主要着眼于其本身色彩,如新下的雪、新鲜牛奶及百合花的颜色。西方人认为 白色高雅纯洁,象征着纯真无邪,如(1)a white soul纯洁的心灵,(2)white wedding新娘 穿白礼服的婚礼;它又象征正直、诚实,如(1)a white spirit正直的精神,(2)white hand廉洁、诚实。 黑色古代黑色为天玄,原来在中国文化里只有沉重的神秘之感,是一种庄重而严肃的色调,它的象征意义由于受西方文化的影响而显得较为复杂。一方面它象 征严肃、正义,如民间传说中的“黑脸”包公,传统京剧中的 张飞、李逵等人的黑色脸谱;另一方面它又由于其本身的黑暗无光给人以阴险、毒辣和恐怖的感觉。它象征邪恶、反动,如指阴险狠毒的人是“黑心肠”,不可告人的丑恶内 情是“黑幕”,反动集团的成员是“黑帮”、“黑手”,称杀人劫货、干不法勾当的客店叫做“黑店”等。黑色(black)是西方文化中的基本禁忌色,体现了西方人精神上的摈弃和厌恶。它象征死亡、凶兆、灾难 ,如(1)Black Mass安灵弥撒,(2)a black letter day凶日;它象征邪恶、犯罪,如(1)Black Man邪恶的恶魔,(2)black guard恶棍、流氓;它也象征耻辱、不光彩,如 (1)black sheep败家子,(2)a black eye丢脸、坏名声。 其他颜色黄色在中国文化中是红色的一种发展变异,如旧时人们把宜于办大事的日子 称为“黄道吉日”,但是它更代表权势、威严,象征中央政权、所以黄色便为历代封建帝王所专有,普通人是不能随便使用“黄色”的,如“黄袍”是天子的“龙袍”,“黄钺”是天子的仪仗,“黄榜”是天子的诏书,至于现在流行的与“ 性”有关的“黄色”观念,有一种说法是中西文化交流融合的一种现象。据说美国纽约的《世界报》用黄色油墨印刷低级趣味的漫画以争取销路,人们便称这一类不健康的刊物为“黄色刊物”,所以黄色带有不好的象征意义,表示低级趣味的报刊、毫无文学价值的书籍。粉红色(pink)是红色的一种变异,可以将其视为红色的一种应合或复归。唐代诗人崔护写下“人面桃花相映红”的诗句,以桃花与女人相比,故粉红色可以象征女性,称男女之间不正当的性关系为“桃色事件”。在西方文化中,粉红色象征精华,极致,如the pink of perfection十全十美的东西或人。颜色词的象征意义在不同的民族文化里有着很大的差异。从根本上讲,在中国文化中,颜色的象征是基于过去中国的封建统治、封建迷信及其原始、落后的科学、教育状况而形成的,所以颜色的象征意义有相当强烈 的政治化和神秘化倾向。而西方文化中的颜色象征则更多地得益于西方民族开放性及科学、教育的普及程度,其象征意义少了神秘,多了些理性。不同文化之间颜色象征意义又都是在社会的发展、历史的沉淀中约定俗成的,是一种永久性的文化现象。它们能够使语言更生动、有趣、幽默、亲切, 所以我们应该予以足够的注意~

Chinese and Western cultural differences in the performance of every aspect of daily life from the greeting 、 term diet and cultural differences in the way of thinking in the abstract, such as differences everywhere, from the West focus on the following colors to express the difference between Chinese and Western cultural differences in areas such as a wedding First, in the West to express the color difference Different colors in different languages is not expressed in the same The representative of China in a sense, the West has a meaning that even the "color" to understand the meaning of the (A) red (red) Whether in China or in the English-speaking countries, often in red and festive celebrations or day- Calendar, red font used these days, therefore, red letter day: refers to the "Day" or "happy " It also refers to the red "liabilities" or "loss" because people are always negative in red to So there are these phrases: red figure deficit in the red loss In common with the Chinese "red" words, translated into English, may not necessarily use the "red" for example: brown sugar brown sugar red wine red wine (B) yellow Yellow in English and Chinese in the extended meaning of the differences are In English, yellow can be said that the "timid, cowardly, despicable," meaning, for example: a yellow dog despicable, cowardly people a yellow livered coward Chinese yellow symbol of the term is sometimes vulgar, vulgar and obscene, indecent indecency means, such as yellow film, erotica, yellow CD, and so These in the name of "yellow" in English and "yellow" has nothing to However, in another English word blue is the color used to indicate the kind of meaning in Chinese, such as the blue jokes (dirty joke), blue films (yellow film) Second, the cultural differences in Western wedding First of all, in Western wedding culture and the first in the West in thinking about the differences: the Chinese people more conservative, like excitement, more old-fashioned thinking, so in the history of China for thousands of years the entire wedding customs did not change The thinking in the West is more open to the requirements of the wedding will be lower, they will be the climax of the wedding in the church: the sacred as the "wedding march" into the red carpet, Jiao Mei's father, the bride linked hands Rose walked slowly to the groom, the bride's father, daughter to the groom's hand on hand, her daughter's life will be entrusted to the groom, all eyes followed the couple, filled with well-being in their Second, the result of cultural differences wedding in the West because the West in a different China is mainly Buddhist, but the West is mainly C Therefore, the Western wedding is to be held in the church and the priest is Zhuhun R China's traditional customs of the most important part of the Bai Tiandi is, the worship heaven and earth even after the ceremony has 中西方文化差异表现在方方面面,从日常生活的打招呼用语、饮食文化等差异到思维方式等抽象方面的差异无所不在,下面着重从中西方颜色表达的差异,中西方婚礼文化差异等方面阐述。 一、中西方颜色表达的差异 不同颜色在不同语言中表达的方式并不一样。在中国代表一种意义,在西方又表示一种涵义,甚至对“颜色”的涵义理解恰恰相反。(一)red(红色)无论是在英语国家还是在中国,红色往往与庆祝活动或喜庆日子有关。日历中,这些日子常用红色字体,因此,red letter day:指的是“纪念日”或“喜庆的日子”。红色还指“负债”或“亏损”,因为人们总是用红笔登记负数。于是就有了这些词组:red figure赤字 in the red亏损汉语中常用的带“红”字的词语,翻译成英语,可不一定用“red”例如: 红糖brown sugar 红酒red wine (二) yellow黄色在英语和汉语中的引申含义差别比较大。英语中,yellow可以表示“胆小、卑怯、卑鄙”的意思,例如:a yellow dog 可鄙的人,卑鄙的人a yellow livered 胆小鬼汉语中黄色一词有时象征低级趣味、色情庸俗、下流猥亵的意思,如黄色电影、黄色书刊、黄色光碟等等。这些名称中的“黄”与英语中的“yellow”无关。然而,英语中另一个颜色词blue却常用来表示汉语中这类意思,如blue jokes(下流的玩笑), blue films(黄色电影)等。 二、中西方婚礼文化差异 首先,中西方婚礼文化差异首先和中西方人在思维方面的差异有关:中国人比较保守,喜欢热闹,思维较古板,所以在中国历史几千年的时间里整个婚礼的习俗并没有多大的变化。而西方人的思想则比较开放,对于婚礼的要求也比较低,他们婚礼的高潮则是在教堂中:随着神圣的《婚礼进行曲》步入鲜红的地毯,娇美的新娘挽着父亲手捧玫瑰慢慢向新郎走去,新娘的父亲将女儿的手放在新郎的手上,将女儿的一生托付给新郎,所有人的目光注视着这对新人,幸福洋溢在他们的脸上。其次,造成中西方婚礼文化差异的原因是中西方不同的宗教。中国是以佛教为主,而西方则是基督教为主的。所以西方的婚礼是在教堂中举行而主婚人则是神甫。中方的传统婚俗中的最重要环节就是拜天地,拜了天地以后就算是礼成了。

在人类语言中,颜色词语表现出的独特魅力,令人刮目相看。在汉英语言中,表示各种不同颜色或色彩的词都很丰富。我们不仅要注意观察它们本身的基本意义,更要留心它们含义深广的象征意义,因为颜色的象征意义在不同民族语言中往往有不同的特点,有些特点甚至构成了人们对经过引伸、转义以后颜色的崇尚和禁忌。由于我国与绝大部分英语国家相隔万里,地理位置、自然现象、历史背景、审美心理等千差万别,人们对于颜色的感受和表达不尽相同。这样,颜色的象征意义在中西文化之间自然又会产生很大的差异。本文拟就中西文化中词语的颜色、词语的象征意义作一些对比和探讨,以求教于同行和读者。从科学的定义来说,颜色是由物体发射、反射或透过一定光波所引起的视觉现象,是人眼视觉的一种基本特征。在西方文化中,颜色的象征意义往往比较直接,一般是用客观事物的具体颜色来象征某些抽象的文化含义,所以更易追溯其语义理据和逻辑理据。而中国文化中的颜色内涵和象征意义也十分丰富,颜色词的象征意义是多元的。下面我们就中西文化中颜色的不同象征意义进行具体描述:1.红色红色是我国文化中的基本崇尚色,它体现了中国人在精神和物质上的追求。它象征着吉祥、喜庆,如把促成他人美好婚姻的人叫“红娘”,喜庆日子要挂大红灯笼、贴红对联、红福字;男娶女嫁时贴大红“喜”字,把热闹、兴旺叫做“红火”;形容繁华;它也象征顺利、成功,如人的境遇很好被称为“走红”、“红极一时”。西方文化中的红色(red)则是一个贬意相当强的词,是“火”、“血”的联想,它象征着残暴、流血,如red revenge血@腥复@仇,它又象征激进、暴@力革@命,如a red revolution 赤@色革@命,它还象征着放@荡、淫@秽,如a red light district花街柳@巷(红@灯区)。2.白色在中国文化中,白色与红色相反,是一个基本禁忌词,体现了中国人在物质和精神上的摈弃和厌恶。在中国古代的五方说中,西方是刑天杀神,主萧杀之秋,所以白色象征死亡、凶兆。如自古以来亲人死后家属要披麻戴孝办“白事”,要设白色灵堂,出殡时要打白幡。它也象征失败、愚蠢、无利可得,如在战争中失败的一方总是打着“白旗” 表示投降,称智力低下的人为“白痴”,它还象征奸邪、阴 险,如“唱白脸”、“白脸”奸雄。西方文化中的白色象征意义主要着眼于其本身色彩,如新下的雪、新鲜牛奶及百合花的颜色。西方人认为 白色高雅纯洁,象征着纯真无邪,如(1)a white soul纯洁的心灵,(2)white wedding新娘 穿白礼服的婚礼;它又象征正直、诚实,如(1)a white spirit正直的精神,(2)white hand廉洁、诚实。 黑色古代黑色为天玄,原来在中国文化里只有沉重的神秘之感,是一种庄重而严肃的色调,它的象征意义由于受西方文化的影响而显得较为复杂。一方面它象 征严肃、正义,如民间传说中的“黑脸”包公,传统京剧中的 张飞、李逵等人的黑色脸谱;另一方面它又由于其本身的黑暗无光给人以阴险、毒辣和恐怖的感觉。它象征邪恶、反动,如指阴险狠毒的人是“黑心肠”,不可告人的丑恶内 情是“黑幕”,反动集团的成员是“黑帮”、“黑手”,称杀人劫货、干不法勾当的客店叫做“黑店”等。黑色(black)是西方文化中的基本禁忌色,体现了西方人精神上的摈弃和厌恶。它象征死亡、凶兆、灾难 ,如(1)Black Mass安灵弥撒,(2)a black letter day凶日;它象征邪恶、犯罪,如(1)Black Man邪恶的恶魔,(2)black guard恶棍、流氓;它也象征耻辱、不光彩,如 (1)black sheep败家子,(2)a black eye丢脸、坏名声。 其他颜色黄色在中国文化中是红色的一种发展变异,如旧时人们把宜于办大事的日子 称为“黄道吉日”,但是它更代表权势、威严,象征中央政权、所以黄色便为历代封建帝王所专有,普通人是不能随便使用“黄色”的,如“黄袍”是天子的“龙袍”,“黄钺”是天子的仪仗,“黄榜”是天子的诏书,至于现在流行的与“ 性”有关的“黄色”观念,有一种说法是中西文化交流融合的一种现象。据说美国纽约的《世界报》用黄色油墨印刷低级趣味的漫画以争取销路,人们便称这一类不健康的刊物为“黄色刊物”,所以黄色带有不好的象征意义,表示低级趣味的报刊、毫无文学价值的书籍。粉红色(pink)是红色的一种变异,可以将其视为红色的一种应合或复归。唐代诗人崔护写下“人面桃花相映红”的诗句,以桃花与女人相比,故粉红色可以象征女性,称男女之间不正当的性关系为“桃色事件”。在西方文化中,粉红色象征精华,极致,如the pink of perfection十全十美的东西或人。颜色词的象征意义在不同的民族文化里有着很大的差异。从根本上讲,在中国文化中,颜色的象征是基于过去中国的封建统治、封建迷信及其原始、落后的科学、教育状况而形成的,所以颜色的象征意义有相当强烈 的政治化和神秘化倾向。而西方文化中的颜色象征则更多地得益于西方民族开放性及科学、教育的普及程度,其象征意义少了神秘,多了些理性。不同文化之间颜色象征意义又都是在社会的发展、历史的沉淀中约定俗成的,是一种永久性的文化现象。它们能够使语言更生动、有趣、幽默、亲切, 所以我们应该予以足够的注意~
像在西方暖色调的词都很平稳,而冷色调的词都是越读越低垂的。中文就很不一样。楼主圣诞快乐!
