YANG Xing-ye, ZHAO Bao-yong
2022, 38(3): 248-255. doi: 10.19979/j.cnki.issn10082689.2022040004
Abstract(379) HTML (158) PDF(35)
Abstract:
Studying abroad in China is an important part of China’s education opening to the outside world. Since the reform and opening up, especially since socialism with Chinese characteristics entered a new era, great progress has been made in the cause of studying abroad in China, but there are still problems with unclear overall ideas in promoting cultural exchanges between China and foreign countries, which are mainly reflected in: paying more attention to humanistic care, but insufficient ideological and political guidance; paying more attention to form innovation, but the connotation and value are not concise enough; focus on “bringing in”, but “going out” is not enough. In order to give better play to the role of overseas education in enhancing trust, dispelling doubts, facilitating mutual learning in promoting cultural exchanges between China and foreign countries, and be a pioneer and innovator in cultural exchanges between China and foreign countries, it is necessary to take Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era and the spirit of Xi Jinping’s important reply to the students of USTB as the guide, always follow the principles of adhering to the party’s leadership, basing ourselves on the development path of socialist culture with Chinese characteristics, and adhering to the basic principles of openness and inclusiveness, seeking common ground while reserving differences, and making full efforts in the three aspects of building a solid foundation for Chinese cultural self-confidence, condensing value consensus, and innovating carrier methods.

The Attitudinal Meaning of Nature Writing Discourse and Its Interpretation in Historical Context:A Case Study on “The Land Ethic” in A Sand County Almanac
HUANG Fang, ZENG Lei
2022, 38(3): 264-271. doi: 10.19979/j.cnki.issn10082689.2021120077
Abstract(284) HTML (125) PDF(39)
Abstract:
Every text is endowed with certain attitude or stance that arises in a specific social context. Based on natural sciences, nature writing discourse displays the equality and harmony between human beings and nature through unique literary forms. Historical context helps us have a better and deeper understanding of literary texts. This paper applies Appraisal Theory to the analysis of the attitudinal meaning of “The Land Ethic”, the representative text in A Sand County Almanac and interprets it in historical context. It is found that both inscribing and invoking attitude are contained in “The Land Ethic” and Appreciation is described most frequently, followed by Judgment and Affect. Through these attitudinal resources, the author Leopold expressed his full appreciation of the value of the land, his criticism of the U.S. conservation system at that time, and his ecological awareness of calling on people to protect the ecology and promote the human-nature harmonious coexistence. And through its interpretation in historical context, it is found that Leopold’s life and work experience, the social-economic background and the conservation system of the U.S., scientific theories at that time, etc. are the important reasons that Leopold highlighted his ecological thoughts of human-nature equality and harmony through scientific, objective and detailed exposition. The present study will not only help dig out the literary, ecological and historical significance of A Sand County Almanac, but also test the interpretive power of the Appraisal Theory on literary works and the importance of historical context in the interpretation of literary works. At the same time, it is also an attempt to apply Appraisal Theory to analyzing texts in cultural context.
On the Semantic and Grammatical Interpretations of Story, Discourse and Narrative
ZHOU Wen-juan
2022, 38(3): 272-280. doi: 10.19979/j.cnki.issn10082689.2021120095
Abstract(393) HTML (788) PDF(70)
Abstract:
Three overlapping concepts of story, discourse and narrative can find themselves different in five aspects of basic denotations, mutual relationships, basic assumptions, analysis models, and corresponding types, by examining the semantic and grammatical aspects of those three terms. Such interpretations involve four sets of terms: (1) story, discourse and narrative; (2) narrative discourse, story narrative and narrative story; (3) ecological story, ecological discourse and ecological narrative; (4) story grammar, narrative grammar, functional grammar, and ecological grammar. Those four sets of terms strikingly differ in their corresponding analysis models and corresponding types, reflecting the ecological turn in the fields of narratology and linguistics. Those findings can provide new ideas for integrating ecolinguistics and ecological narratology, and establishing a new framework for the connective knowledge of transdisciplinary ecolinguistics, and providing a new basis for constructing ecological narrative analysis model.
Pound’s Poetic Cognition in the Translation of Imageries: A Perspective of Comparative Poetics
CHE Ming-ming, LIU Shu-qin
2022, 38(3): 281-289. doi: 10.19979/j.cnki.issn10082689.2022010029
Abstract(706) HTML (284) PDF(63)
Abstract:
As an important branch of Comparative Literature, Comparative Poetics focuses on a comparative literary study based on cultural comparability, in the hope of revealing the general laws and correlations of research objects. Imagery is the soul of poetry and the carrier of emotional expressions. Due to the discrepancy in language characteristics and cultural thinking, there are both similarities and differences as to the ways of cognition of imageries between the Chinese and Western cultures. Based on the theory of Comparative Poetics, the present paper analyzes Pound’s poetic cognition in the translation of imageries in Chinese classical poetry via two relations or rather dimensions: imagery vs. artistic conception beauty and imagery vs. rhythmic beauty. It is found in the study that Pound fully represents the poetic elements and aesthetic features of Chinese classical poetry owing to his profound poetic cognition of imageries.

SONG Jie
2022, 38(3): 290-302. doi: 10.19979/j.cnki.issn10082689.2021120096
Abstract(983) HTML (1117) PDF(114)
Abstract:
As an outstanding narratologist in the world, David Herman is the advocator of postclassical narratology as well as the initiator of cognitive narratology, one major branch of postclassical narratology. His works and cognitive narrative theory have drawn much scholarly attention abroad, and a wide range of investigations into his works and cognitive narrative theory have been conducted from different perspectives by scholars abroad. By focusing on and reviewing the studies on Herman’s cognitive narrative theory abroad, this paper helps us look into his cognitive narrative theory in a more dialectical way. It is hoped that the paper can work as a useful reference to the study on Herman and contribute to the study on cognitive narratology in China.

CHEN Xi, CHEN Hong-wei, SHEN Wei, WANG Na, FAN Yi-ting
2022, 38(3): 303-311. doi: 10.19979/j.cnki.issn10082689.2022030094
Abstract(421) HTML (236) PDF(36)
Abstract:
Universities featuring industry-specific education are at the forefront of the nation’s effort to advance talent cultivation and the scientific innovation in strategic and key areas. The foreign language instruction in these universities underpins their cultivation of compound talents, international scientific innovation, and the global people-to-people exchanges. Foreign language instruction in the University of Science and Technology Beijing (USTB) has grown in sync with the university. The past seven decades witnessed its birth, bourgeoning development, reform, and leapfrog progress. Nowadays, a foreign language instruction system featuring strong support for the industry and rich academic capabilities has been put into place. This paper reflects on the 70-year development of foreign language instruction in the USTB, and explores the way forward for the foreign language instruction in universities featuring industry-specific education, in an effort to provide inspiration and reference for the high-quality development of foreign language instruction in universities of this kind in China.
Advantages of the Faculty Cultivation in Universities with Industrial Characteristics
ZHOU Jin-yi, CHANG Qiao, ZHANG Jian
2022, 38(3): 312-318. doi: 10.19979/j.cnki.issn10082689.2022020057
Abstract(276) HTML (156) PDF(41)
Abstract:
The re-industrialization tendency of universities is related to the development of key industries and the steady progress of social economics in China. From a perspective of individuals’ creative vitality, this study explores the path through which industry-characteristic management system will influence the competitiveness and industry contribution of Chinese universities, as well as the potential theoretical boundaries. We conducted a field survey in 22 universities with industrial characteristics in China with 220 managers and 907 teachers. Applying hierarchical linear modeling (HLM), maximum likelihood estimation (MLE), and other statistical methods, we find that the industry-characteristic management system can promote the overall competitiveness and industrial contribution of universities through improving teachers’ creative vitality. In addition, for universities with a relatively low industry-approaching strategy, this effect will become more significant. Besides, based on the competitiveness and industrial contribution, this study divides universities into four main categories: high competitiveness and high industrial contribution; high competitiveness and low industrial contribution; low competitiveness and high industrial contribution; and low competitiveness and low industrial contribution. We suggest that the competitiveness of universities does not necessarily improve their contributions to related industries. The research also provides policy suggestions for the future reform of management system in universities with industrial characteristics.

Abstract(653) HTML (372) PDF(64)
Abstract:
Based on the theory of self-determination, taking new energy vehicles as an example, the structural equation model is used to discuss the driving mechanism of the public’s green consumption pattern and the moderating role of consumers’ innovation from the perspective of motivation. The research results show that the public's internal motivation and external motivation have a significant positive impact on their green consumption attitude and new energy vehicle purchase intention. Compared with internal motivation, external motivation has a greater impact on green consumption attitude and new energy vehicle purchase intention. Green consumption attitude has a significant positive impact on the purchase intention of new energy vehicles; consumer innovation has a positive moderating effect between self-determination motivation and new energy vehicle purchase intention, and has a positive effect between self-determination motivation and green consumption attitude.

LI Wen-hua, LV Shuai
2022, 38(3): 335-345. doi: 10.19979/j.cnki.issn10082689.2022030089
Abstract(535) HTML (237) PDF(49)
Abstract:
The decision not to prosecute the company involved is in line with the value system of plead guilty and lenient punishment, and it also promotes the development of the company to a certain extent. The leniency system for admitting guilt and accepting punishment provides institutional space for the application of conditional non-prosecution to corporate compliance cases, and at the same time, conditional non-prosecution also provides companies with better institutional protection as a decriminalization method. In practice, conditional non-prosecution has been generally applied to corporate compliance cases, but there are still many problems such as unclear application conditions, different nature and content of conditions, and unclear period of deferred prosecution. Therefore, the next thing to do is to Combined with the experience of judicial practice in various places, discuss the specific design of the system into law, from the applicable charges, subjects, types and other conditions of the case, combined with the nature and content of the conditions, the necessity of social investigation, the determination of the suspension of prosecution period and compliance make a preliminary legislative conception from specific aspects such as inspections.
Reflection and Outlet of the Debate on the View of Criminal Law Legislation
CHEN Li-wen
2022, 38(3): 346-352. doi: 10.19979/j.cnki.issn10082689.2021120026
Abstract(371) HTML (202) PDF(40)
Abstract:
The differences between the positive and negative views of criminal law legislation are not as big as imagined, and they have much in common on the basis of argument and demonstration results. The reason why their contradictions are so prominent is that, on the surface, the two sides have misunderstood of each other’s viewpoints and argurments, which deviate from the essence of the issue and lack of objective evaluation standards, but the deep reason is that the two sides have different standpoints of criminal law. The key to resolve this problem is to get out of the binary opposite thinking mode of “either-or” and seek the integration of the two viewpoints of criminal law. This is not only the inevitable requirement for the integration of the criminal school from controversy, but also the realistic need for the construction of criminal rule of law in China under the background of the new era. Specifically, it is necessary to focus on the empirical basis of criminal law legislation and regulate the public participation in criminal law legislation with the guidance of holistic thinking of social governance.

Los Angeles Noir Narrative in Sam Shepard’s Angel City
YANG Jian-lin, FAN Yi-ting
2022, 38(3): 353-358. doi: 10.19979/j.cnki.issn10082689.2021110097
Abstract(703) HTML (335) PDF(54)
Abstract:
Against the background of urban cultural transformation in the 1960s, the material and cultural corruption in Los Angeles came to be a focal point in American literature. In Angel City, contemporary American dramatist Sam Shepard employs Los Angeles noir narrative to deconstruct the traditional romantic myth of Los Angeles in terms of its environmental catastrophe and cultural decline, thus revealing the ecological crises and the Hollywood reproduction mode constricted by commercial capital. By so doing, the play delineates a disillusioned, post-apocalyptic human and social condition for the post-war Los Angeles as an urban space of economy and culture.
