Discussion on the Cultural Inheritance and Academic Communication of Traditional Chinese Medicine:with Lingnan LUO's Gynecological Diagnostics and Therapeutics As An Example
Lingnan LUO's Gynecological Diagnostics and Therapeutics is an intangible cultural heritage project of Guangdong Province and Guangzhou City,having both cultural and academic attributes.Lingnan LUO's Gynecological Diagnostics and Therapeutics developed from the Lingnan LUO's Gynecological Schools,with the genes of Lingnan culture and the imprint of Lingnan medicine.The intangible cultural heritage projects and academic schools of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)have their own focuses in the cultural inheritance and academic communication.Intangible cultural heritage projects are established and evaluated by the cultural organizations,and their spread is mainly to the public in outreach communication;the academic schools are established by the administrative department of TCM,and their communication is usually in the professionals,occasionally by the outreach communication.The cultural inheritance and academic communication of TCM schools should focus on the in-depth exploration of TCM theory for enhancing the curative effect through the theoretical guidance for clinical practice.Moreover,the research team of academic schools needs to pay special attention to the inheritance of the discipline culture through the construction of workstations and other forms,aiming at the academic communication in the professionals,so that more practitioners will obtain the experience of the academic schools and will bring benefit to the public.Being different from the academic schools of TCM,the intangible cultural heritage projects of TCM have outstanding cultural attributes.The inheritors of intangible cultural heritage projects should not only be required to inherit the skills,but also be required to spread the discipline culture and skills to the public,thus to enable the public to understand the intangible cultural heritage projects of TCM and to prevent diseases and keep healthy with TCM spontaneously.The spread of intangible cultural heritage projects and academic schools of TCM should be based on the Chinese cultural self-confidence,and make full use of information and network technology,thus to introduce TCM culture at multiple levels and in multiple dimensions.
