The Research on the Knowledge and Ideas of Meteorology in the View of Literary Sketches
In a sense,ancient Chinese people paid more attention to meteorological phenomena than modern people.For them,meteorological phenomena not only affected farming,but also foretold the vicissitudes of the world.There were abundant meteorological historical material records in literary sketches.Some of these historical materials showed the ancient people's meteorological knowledge and experience,and some reflected the understanding of the relationship between man and meteorological phenomena and the changes in this understanding.In general,the ancient Chinese believed that meteorology,celestial phenomena,earth phenomena and human affairs were closely related to each other,thus forming a interactive and inseparable whole.The analysis and interpretation of the meteorological historical materials in literary sketches would help to form a deeper understanding of the concepts of ancient Chinese meteorological,climate and ecology and thus provide insight into the cultural origins of these concepts.
