摘要
文化是人的一切行为方式的表达,表达是文化的一个重要功能。"表达"这个概念,是"用以指称作为人类学中的核心概念的文化其所具有的实际功能"。文化是客观存在的,同时文化也是可以表达的,这种表达表现在两个方面:一是文化自身的表达,二是被人类学者等人描述(表达)的文化。文化表达可分为语言文字的表达、非语言视听的表达和特殊表达等类型。文化的表达要注意真实性、准确性、还原性和变异性。研究文化,解释和表达文化,是人类学学科的特色所在。不同的理论学派都是从不同的角度表达文化,只有将不同角度的认识结合在一起,表达的文化面貌才能与真实的文化面貌最为接近。
Culture is the expression of human behaviors,while expression is an important function of culture.The concept of＂expression＂ means ＂one practical function that culture has as a key notion in anthropology＂.As the objective existence,culture can be expressed in two ways：one by itself and the other by people including anthropologists.The ways of expression include literal means,non-audio-visual methods as well as some unique kinds,while authenticity,accuracy and variability have to be stressed.The study of culture,interpretation and expression of it are the features of anthropology.Though different theoretical schools have expressed culture from different perspectives,it is only through the fusion of these understandings that the expressed culture can reach the actual one in a closest way.
