Fine sentiment ritual China diet culture basic connotation

   The Chinese diet culture great sentiment deep, is well-established, has the very high prestige in the world.
The Chinese says eats, is the eat three meals a day not merely,relieves thirst appeases hunger, it often contains the Chinese to know the thing, the understanding thing booklet principle, a child lives down, the relatives and friends want to eat the red-painted egg expression jubilation. the egg was expressing life continuing,eats the egg to stay the great expectations which the Chinese is passed on from generation to generation. When child full year old wants to eat , when 18 years old wants to eat , when marriage wants to eat , has wanted the lively
banquet scene to congratulate. This kind eats , on the surface looked is one physiology satisfies, but has ulterior motives in fact , it taking advantage of ate this kind of form to express one kind of rich psychological connotation. Eats the culture already surmounted has eaten itself, has obtained the more profound social significance. Through China and the West exchange, our diet culture appeared the new time characteristic. Like in the color, smell and tastes, outside is fastidious the nutrition, is one kind of time is progressive. Ten large bowls eight bulk lots procedures obtained the reform, this also is extremely encouraging. But, the Chinese diet
culture in with the various countries culture collision in, should have a firm pivot, like this it can abundantly pick in the audiences long process to obtain the consummation and the development, maintains vitality which does not fade. I thought that, this pivot is the outstanding traditional culture special characteristic, also is the
basic connotation which the Chinese diet culture needs to explore.Therefore, regarding Chinese diet culture basic connotation inspection, not only is helpful to the diet culture theory deepening,moreover occupies the world market regarding the Chinese diet culture also to have the profound positive sense. I believed that, the Chinese
diet culture comes the plot on its in-depth connotation, may summarize four characters: Essence, America, sentiment, ritual. These four characters, had reflected in the diet activity process the diet quality, the esthetic experience, the emotion activity, the social function and so on contain unique cultural implication, also has reflected the diet culture and the China outstanding traditional culture close relation.

   Fine. Is to the Chinese diet culture intrinsic quality summary. Kong Zi has said: the food does not tire of the essence, the minced meat does not tire of thin.This has reflected the ancients regarding diet high-quality goods consciousness. Certainly, this possibly merely limits to certain aristocrat social strata. But, this kind of high-quality goods consciousness took one kind of cultural spirit,more and more is actually widespread, more and more thoroughly seeps,implements to the entire diet activity process in. Chooses the material, the cooking, to blend and even the diet environment, all is manifesting a fine character.

   Beautiful, has manifested the diet culture esthetic characteristic.The Chinese diet the reason that can conquer the world, one of important reasons, lies in it to be beautiful. This kind of America,is refers to the Chinese diet form of action and the content perfect unification, is refers to it to give esthetic is joyful and the spirit which the people brings enjoys. First is the flavor is beautiful. Mr.Sun Yat-Sen says distinguishes the taste not not fine, then technique of the cooking is not wonderful , to taste esthetically regards makes the cooking the first essential meaning."Yan Spring and Autumn Period" center said that, and like thick soup. The water and fire acyl salt and plums by boil the fish flesh, clear by firewood, butchers the husband and it, uneven by taste. says also is this meaning.

   A beautiful achievement diet culture basic connotation, it is the Chinese diet charm is at, America passes through in diet activity process each link.Sentiment, this is to the Chinese diet culture society psychology
function summary. Eats and drinks, cannot simply regard it, it is in fact between the human and the human the emotion exchange medium, is one kind of entirely new social activity. At the same time eats meal,at the same time chats, may do business, the exchange information, the interview. The friend meeting and parting, see off the departing guests and welcome the newcomers, the people all are accustomed to express on the dining table are reluctant to part ways or the welcome mood, in the sentimental disturbance, the people also often borrow the
food and wine to subside. This is the diet activity regarding the social psychology adjustment function. The past teahouse, everybody sat down drinks tea, listens to storytelling, chats or gives vent to royal government's disaffection, was really one kind of extremely good psychological massage.

   The Chinese diet the reason that has expresses feelings the function, is because drinks the German food and, ten thousand nations has a good time together the philosophy thought and from this but appears has the national characteristics the diet way.Regarding the diet activity in emotion culture, has a guidance and the promotion personal status question. We must advocate the health is exquisite the cultural affective tone which, pursues one
kind of noble sentiment.the ritual,is refers to the diet activity the etiquette. The Chinese diet is fastidious the ritual, this has the very big relations with ours traditional culture. The birth and death, sees off the departing guests and welcomes the newcomers, respects the ancestors all is a ritual. "Ritual Records Ritual To transport"center said that, at the beginning of husband ritual, beginning various diets. a three li's center several branches page not once has not mentioned in the sacrificial offering the liquor and food. The ritual refers to one kind of order and the standard. Attends a banquet the direction, the chopsticks spoon arrangement, serves food the order all is manifesting the ritual.
   We discussed the ritual, do not have simply to regard as it one kind of etiquette, but should understand it one kind of spirit, one intrinsic ethics spirit. This kind of ritual spirit, passes through in the diet activity process, thus constitutes the Chinese diet civilization the logical beginning.The essence, America, the sentiment, the ritual, summarized the Chinese diet culture basic connotation separately from the different angle, in other words, these four aspects organically constituted Chinese diet culture this overall concept. The essence and America stress on the diet image and the quality, but sentiment and ritual,then stresses on the diet point of view, the custom and the social function. But, they are not isolated exist, but is depends on for existence mutually, the cause and effect relationship. Only its fine , can have the integrity to be beautiful ; Only its
is beautiful can stimulate the sentiment ; Only has the sentiment , can have gathers the branch time prevailing custom the ritual . Four links links mutual promotion of the five elements, the perfect unification, then form the Chinese diet culture the highest boundary. We only then are accurate are grasp the essence, America, the sentiment, the ritual , can profoundly understand the Chinese diet culture, because then also can inherit and
bring honor to the Chinese diet culture well.
