An Intellectual Historical Examination of the Meta Image of Huaxia:Case Centred on Loong and Phenix
In the traditional Chinese cultural system,the images of loong and phoenix have profound meta-image connotations,which are self-referential and self-talking.Analyzed from the intellectual history of the generation of the two,there exists a sym-bolic interconstruction between the"image"and the"likeness"of loong and phoenix as the"likeness"is derived from the"im-age",which,then,interprets the"likeness".This dualistic mode of intergeneration presents the social construction and deep cul-tural logic of Chinese cultural symbols,reflecting the logical kernel of the interconstruction and integration of Chinese material life and the spiritual world.
