Rate this book
《何谓文化》是继《文化苦旅》之后,余秋雨20年来对迷失的中国文明的心灵叩问。文化究竟是什么?在《何谓文化》一书中,作者在深邃的观察之后,用亲身经历和鲜活的感受来解读这一最根本的问题。分别从学理、生命、大地和古典四个层面来解析作为一个文化大国,从精英界到公众心理,到底缺失了什么。所有篇章均为第一次公开出版。本书可谓是一次文明巡阅之后的思想结晶最有价值的。第一部分《学理的回答》,系统化地论述了何谓文化,何谓中国文化的本性等等问题,针对社会心理的浮躁,和作家本人的深邃思索,用罕见的直言不讳的批评,揭示了各阶层对文化本源的迷失,响亮提出文化重建的要义在于回到真善美。可谓发聋振聩。第二部分《生命的回答》,以鲜活的笔触,追溯了对周恩来和那些已经离世的多位文化巨匠的往事,如谢晋、黄佐临、巴金等,因为他们几乎用自己全部的生命揭示了文化的本源。《仰望云门》,则写了三位依然健在的台湾文化耆宿林怀民、白先勇和余光中,写他们是如何以敬畏之心对待传统,家国和人类精神穹庐的。这些文章,是余秋雨一生散文写作中的自珍箧藏。第三部分《大地的回答》中,则是收录了余秋雨生命中撰写过的一些碑文。其中,还包括他为他的好友、

Yu Qiuyu (余秋雨), born in 1946 in Yuyao, Zhejiang, is one of the well-known contemporary Chinese cultural and literary figures. With an enormous readership in China and overseas, his cultural explorations link China with the rest of the world and his bold and direct criticisms of certain cultural phenomena make him loved and detested in equal measure. In 1985, Yu became the youngest full professor in China at the age of 39, and later became the president of the Shanghai Theater Academy.
