Then it spread to China with the propagation of Buddhism and underwent numerous translations by eminent monks. Particularly, the translation of Kumarajiva had solidified the Lotus Sutra’s prominent position among Buddhist scriptures.

Hanfu, represented as a prominent aspect of traditional culture, has gained immense popularity within Chinese society, particularly under the leadership of Xi Jinping. In comparison to his predecessors, Xi Jinping has demonstrated an unprecedented emphasis on culture. Based on the three self-confidences proposed by Hu Jintao, cultural confidence was added by Xi, thereby expanding the Party Central Committee’s theory of state governance to encompass four confidences.

The Chinese government’s stance on Hanfu’s gradual revival has been influenced by three key factors: public sentiment, market demand and response, and China’s global reputation.

Throughout the history of the Qing Dynasty, its rulers showed great enthusiasm for literary and artistic pursuits, leading to the emergence of numerous imperial family members with talent in painting and calligraphy. This phenomenon holds significant importance for dynasties governed by ethnic minorities, making it a subject worthy of study. In this paper, the author explores the educational institution for imperial princes—the "Shangshufang" (the Imperial Study) to understand the curriculum they studied. Furthermore, the focus shifts to the art education, as not all imperial princes were required to study painting and calligraphy. However, mastering these art forms not only nurtured their characters but also brought them closer to literati, enabling their integration into the social circle of the Han Chinese. This, in turn, facilitated better communication and cultural blending between the Manchu and Han ethnicities.

It is tied to social occasions that require interpersonal communication between individuals and groups: face culture can be found in both workplaces and individual settings. Face culture is adopted as a primary social principle in China and it plays an important role in affecting the languages and behaviors of Chinese people. Thus, being able to understand the meaning of mianzi and behave accordingly is important for corporations that plan to do business in China and individuals who seek connection with Chinese society or culture in any form. This paper will summarize the most important facets of Chinese face culture regarding its role in interpersonal, familial, and business settings, as they are essential to the understanding of face culture.

With the development of society and the increasing average educational level of women, the division of labor within families and society should be redefined. However, due to the influence of traditional Chinese culture and long-standing customs, the majority of people still adhere to the idea of men being breadwinners and women being responsible for domestic duties.This contradiction in societal perceptions results in various social issues, such as a rise in women’s reluctance to marry, an increase in divorce rates, and a decline in birth rates. Among these issues, domestic labor plays a significant role in family dynamics. In response to this, Article 1088 of the Chinese Civil Code has been updated to elevate the importance of domestic labor in society, particularly in the context of divorce and the compensation system associated with it. However, through an analysis of 228 legal judgments, the author believes that there are certain problems with the formulation of Article 1088, which prevent it from achieving its legislative intent, i.e., providing protection and benefits for those burdened with significant domestic labor responsibilities. The author suggests that the domestic labor compensation system and its related regulations still require further improvement. Drawing comparisons with similar systems in other countries, the author puts forward recommendations for the enhancement of Article 1088.

The design form is often influenced by the cultural and economic factors of its creation period, aligning with the aesthetic ideals of the specific era. The exploration of Chinese classical gardens in terms of site selection, layout, landscaping, lighting, and shadow has resulted in a rich and unique spatial design approach. The humanistic concepts underlying this aesthetics, such as “harmony between man and nature” and “emulating nature,” are fundamental factors in the formation and development of traditional Chinese garden construction. This paper first analyzes the construction background of Canglang Pavilion from both cultural and economic perspectives. Secondly, it summarizes the role of the cultural environment in shaping the design form of Canglang Pavilion, including creating a “transformation of the real into the virtual” spatial form and fostering a spiritual orientation towards “returning to nature.” Building on this foundation, with references from ancient and contemporary literature, it explores the impact of economic factors on the design form of Canglang Pavilion, focusing on garden architecture, rock stacking techniques, and the cultivation of garden flora. The aim is to explore interpretative and appreciative methods and creative construction approaches that can be applied to enrich and diversify modern Chinese garden construction.
