As one of the most prominent figure in linguistic and analytic philosophy, Donald Davidson’s revolutionary reconceptualization on concept of objectivity and conceptual scheme has been conceived as substantial for epistemology, and it begs the need to explore further on what such revelation in the most profound epistemological concept could denote further. The paper then seeks to demonstrate that Donald Davidson's holistic argument for language inclusivity engenders, permits, and further pursues an ambivalent concept of multi-subjectivity, admitting it not only as a premise but also as a founding ground on which he built his philosophical proclamation. The paper would first introduce the main concepts that Davidson employs in his argument of conceptual scheme, as well as Davidson's general understanding of conceiving language as interdependent on local contextuality and dismissing an exclusive view on objectivity and subjectivity that precludes the possibility of a holistic understanding of knowledge; then it would continue the argument by analyzing the necessary antecedents and assumptions that Davidson employs in his argument. Thus showing that the premises are crucial in understanding Davidson’s attitude toward knowledge in general as in they are deeply embodied in his theory instead of superfluous attached or inferred by fabricated reasoning. Moreover, the existent of the premises, in fact, denote a specific concealed understanding on epistemological agent within Davidson’s framework that admit the ambivalence of multi-subjectivity: the epistemic agent that is the direct performing agent that convey and receive language while the evaluation agent designated to evaluate and analyze language reciprocally.

This study takes the short video dissemination of Jiangsu “Suchao” and Guizhou “Cunchao” as the case study on the TikTok Platform. This study was based on Fisher's narrative paradigm theory and relied on textual analysis. Thus systematically comparing the short video narrative frameworks of the two cases and their “circle-breaking” effect in international dissemination. This study focuses on the core dimensions of narrative subject, structure, and symbol system. Aiming to explore the impact of narrative differences on audience communication and mobilization effects, and explore the ways to optimize the international dissemination of local culture. The results show that "Cunchao" presents the characteristics of a decentralized narrative of pluralism and co-creation.Meanwhile it takes rural life as the core content, and arouses widespread cross-cultural resonance through life-like scenes and universal emotional symbols; “Suchao” focuses on professional and centralized narratives. It focuses on the competition event itself and builds a deep local identity with professional content and cohesive emotions. Research finds that the key to international dissemination of local cultural IPs lies in possessing "dual encoding" capability. It is necessary to balance the local "deep narrative" that condenses internal identity and balance the "breadth narrative" of common human emotions that connect international audiences. Based on this, this study proposes the strategy of combining "narrative translation" and "multiple narratives" to provide theoretical reference and practical implications for the international dissemination of Chinese sports culture.

The accelerated growth of countries in the Global South, as well as the dramatic change of the global technological and power balance, has also brought up a very interesting research question about how it is reported and interpreted by the western mainstream media outlets. This research uses the framework theory of international communication, takes China’s 5G and India’s digital public infrastructure (such as the UPI payment system) for example, and analyzes the relevant reporting of two big western media houses, BBC/NPR and their news interpretation perspective (long-term). This research adopts a rigorous qualitative content analysis approach to make their main news interpretation perspective. The study will establish a codebook which contains the following types: "development opportunity Interpretation", "security threats", "technological nationalism". This study aims to challenge the dominant Western-centred story in international communication, and to offer a critical communication studies lens for interpreting the new power play in an age of “technological geopolitics”.

"Les Misérables"(2012) is renowned for its high-quality adaptation and sophisticated filmmaking techniques that convey profound emotional resonance. The clip “Do you hear the people sing?” serves as compelling evidence, as it elicits strong emotional engagement from audiences. While existing studies have examined the effect of simple elements, a research gap remains regarding how these elements interact to enhance emotional resonance. This study seeks to explore how the clip "Do you hear the people sing" from Les Misérables (2012) elicits audience empathy. This study integrates film semiotics and cognitive poetics to examine the specific manifestations of signs and symbols in the clip. The study will employ a detailed textual analysis of the clip, analysing through five dimensions: frame, music, lyrics, characters, and audience interaction. By examining how these elements interact in harmony or contrast, their combined impact on emotional engagement and empathy will be evaluated. The clip reinforces emotional expression and continuously invites audience engagement, fostering viewers’ sense of identification that elicits empathy.

As a new social phenomenon, “Dazi culture” has gradually become an increasingly important means for contemporary urban people to seek efficient and precise companionship. In this study, we take the “Dazi” recruitment posts downloaded from Xiaohongshu as research objects, and conduct quantitative analysis on the popularity indicators of 2，000 posts. Then, we explore whether these posts contain other kinds of emotional or social needs besides the functional needs, and verify the specific screening method used by users in the process of seeking high-quality social experience. In addition, the results show that the needs of users are composed of functional needs, safety needs and emotional needs, and the proportion of emotional needs is the largest. In the case of relevant data support from correlation analysis, it is verified that the “soft thresholds” required in the recruitment posts by users for obtaining high-quality social experience, such as the requirements for personality and emotional state, had a significantly positive correlation with the social effectiveness of the posts. This strongly proves that only when the pre-screening method is used can the social effectiveness be improved and the success rate of social experience greatly increased. This study provides data support for studying new types of interpersonal relationships in the digital age.

The increased integration of artificial intelligence in the development of digital news has had a significant impact on how information is concluded and consumed on social media platforms. TikTok, in particular, has become an important platform for the spread of information in the form of news, for which short videos accompany AI-generated headlines, which have a strong impact on the interpretation of the audience. This study examines the frame of gender in cases of AI-generated news headlines in TikTok and analyses whether the automated texts replicate stereotypical gender depictions. Employing a qualitative content analysis of 100 TikTok videos published from 2023-24, the study examines the insistent stability of lexic patterns in the headlines with the subjects (male vs. female) in particular manifesting certain aspects like authority, achievement, emotional framing, appearance, and relational identity. The results show the presence of clear and systematic gender asymmetries: Headlines of men apparently focus mainly on competence, agency, and professional accomplishment, while those of women more often foreground emotional states, physical appearance, and familial or relational roles. These patterns suggest AIs will not only reflect age-old gender issues in traditional news media, but they can actually exacerbate these issues in algorithmically led but engagement-optimised institutions. The study concludes that the unchecked acceptance of AI-generated language in the social media space for news content runs the risk of perpetuating gendered hierarchies as well as highlighting the need for more critical oversight in AI-assisted news content.

In the era of digital communication, content generated by social media users has become the core carrier of urban image construction to a certain extent. This study takes Jingdezhen, the "porcelain capital," as the case, follows the research paradigm of the classic grounded theory, and systematically codes and analyzes the city image of Jingdezhen and its construction process in the short video media according to the Jingdezhen themed short videos and their associated texts generated by popular users on Douyin platform. The study finds that the image of Jingdezhen on Douyin is a set of compound image results jointly produced by multiple constructors, based on platform logic and user psychology, through systematic discourse strategies, which deeply reveals how short video media constructs the contemporary image of a city. In the process of research, it further reveals the rules of content production under the influence of platform algorithm and users, and shows the closed-loop process of dynamic circular construction from construction to audience feedback and then to construction.

As the AI (Artificial Intelligence, AI) technology, especially the language model and the rapid development of intelligent learning system in the field of language education, contextualized input and output have gradually become an important path to promote Second Language Acquisition (SLA). Based on the theory of input hypothesis and output hypothesis and social culture and interactive approaches, this article system combed the AI drive learning environment, language input, output, and the change of the interactive mechanism and its influence on second language acquisition. Research suggests that AI can enhance the understandability and relevance of input through adaptive recommendation, multimodal presentation, and virtual situation simulation. At the output level, AI dialogue system, real-time error correction and scaffolding support for language learners provides a high frequency, low anxiety generated opportunities, complexity and accuracy in grammar, syntax and vocabulary, expression fluency and pragmatic appropriateness, etc, to promote the language output quality improvement. More importantly, AI integrates input, output and feedback into a dynamic loop process, thereby reshaping the occurrence conditions of traditional second language acquisition to a certain extent. In the affirmation of the potential of the AI in language learning at the same time, the paper also points out its authenticity, learner differences in interactive adaptation and technology rely on is still limited, and emphasizes on the importance of teachers' professional guidance to realize man-machine coordinated. This article aims to provide references for the research and instructional design of second language teaching supported by AI from both theoretical and practical perspectives.

During the Tang dynasty (618–907), the monk Xuanzang took on a pilgrimage to India in search of authentic Buddhist sutras. His experience, later recorded in Da Tang Xiyu Ji (Record of the Western Regions), greatly influenced the growth of Buddhism in the East Asian and became a recurring theme in art. This study focuses on a representative painting of Xuanzang’s journey to explore the cultural and religious exchanges between China and India. Using art-historical analysis and visual analysis, the research examines the painting’s composition, use of colors, artistic style, and techniques to identify how the artist conveys Xuanzang’s religious devotion and cultural significance. This approach allows to reflect on the historical and cultural meaning within the context of Tang dynasty art, leading to the research question: How does the artwork of Xuanzang’s pilgrimage reflect his devotion to Buddhism and show cultural exchanges during his journey to India in the Tang dynasty of China? The findings suggest that the artworks not only show Xuanzang’s spiritual dedication but also reflect cross-cultural exchanges along the Silk Road, highlighting its role in contributing to the spread and development of Buddhism in China through his translations of sacred texts.

During CCTV's 315 Gala, Hubei Economic TV exposed Mixue’s Yichang store for using overnight-lemon, sparking heated online debates and revealing an obvious contrast between media narratives and public opinion. This paper analyzes the public opinion reversal phenomenon in the "Mixue 315 incident" from the three dimensions of text, discourse practice and social practice, aiming to explore how the official media, KOLs and netizens use discourse strategies to compete for discourse power, and the power relations it reflected. The study finds that the three parties have different discourse strategies. In the process of public opinion reversal, the bottom-up mass discourse carries out anti-discipline against the media through the identity of emotional community and the intertextuality of life experience, and is effectively activated and amplified through the spread of social media platforms, forming a strong grassroots public opinion force. The study ultimately reveals that this public opinion reversal profoundly reflects the structural transformation of discourse power in the digital era, where power relations are shifting from centralized, unidirectional control to decentralized, multi-faceted dynamic competition.
