\n\t[View China<\/span>2016<\/span>surname Nian<\/span>04<\/span>moon<\/span>23<\/span>(Jiji Press) Chiang Kai-shek has an unbreakable bond with traditional Chinese culture. Although Chiang was baptized into Christianity in his middle age, his thoughts were mainly rooted in Chinese Taoism. Throughout his life, he was a strong advocate of traditional Chinese culture, boasting that it was his duty to obey and inherit Confucianism. He often regarded himself as the defender of Confucianism, and he did not hesitate to think hard about it. In Taiwan, Chiang laid traditional culture flat on the pavement of the cities. He renamed several major east-west roads in Taipei, from north to south, Zhongxiao (loyalty and filial piety), Renai (benevolence and love), Xinyi (faith and righteousness), and Heping (peace), and there were also the names of the four dimensions and eight virtues, which were derived from the Four Books and the Five Classics.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t <\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t1966<\/span>In 2007, the \"Cultural Revolution\" and the \"Destruction of the Four Olds\" campaign were launched in mainland China, causing serious damage to traditional Chinese culture. Almost at the same time, Chiang Kai-shek launched a movement to revive Chinese culture in Taiwan. The movement for the revival of Chinese culture is an ideological and cultural movement carried out in the name of cultural revival.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t <\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIn order to preserve Chinese culture and to separate it from the Cultural Revolution movement.1966<\/span>surname Nian11<\/span>It was initiated by Sun Ke, Wang Yunwu, Chen Lifu, Chen Qitian, Kong De Cheng and 1,500 other people in January, demanding a yearly11<\/span>moon12<\/span>Day (i.e. the birthday of Dr. Sun Yat-sen, the Father of the Nation) as the Chinese Culture Revival Day. The following year (1967<\/span>In July of 2008, the Taiwan community held the launching meeting of the Committee for the Promotion of the Chinese Culture Renaissance Movement (later renamed the General Association of the Chinese Culture Renaissance Movement), of which Chiang Chiang himself was the chairman, and the movement was immediately launched in Taiwan and overseas.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t <\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAt the beginning of the establishment of the Cultural Revolutionary Society, Chiang Kai-shek took everything into his own hands, and under his supervision, the Society created numerous specialized agencies and committees, such as the Committee for the Promotion of Scholarly Publishing, which was responsible for the collation and publication of ancient books of thought and popularized the essence of scholarship to the younger generation. Vernacular Historical Records\", \"Vernacular Ziji Tongjian\" and so on.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t <\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe National Life Counseling Committee, which is responsible for the promotion of ethics and morals, launched the \"Youth Practice Movement for the Revival of Chinese Culture\" and formulated the \"Guidelines for National Life,\" which set out the basic requirements for clothing, food, housing, and transportation, with a view to promoting the civilization of the State of Manners. civilization. The revised \"Examples of National Etiquette\" (\u300a\u56fd\u6c11\u793c\u8303\u4f8b\u300b) is a set of basic requirements for people's life.1970<\/span>It was formally enacted in 2007, expanding the goals of youth development to include the ideals of life for all of society.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t <\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tChiang Kai-shek attached great importance to the education of Chinese language and history. During the Japanese colonial period, Chinese history was forbidden in Taiwan's schools, but after the restoration of Taiwan, in order to strengthen national identity and national self-confidence, schools insisted on a policy that emphasized both \"national education\" and \"moral education\". Chiang Kai-shek instructed that \"the national language is the foundation of a country's culture, and students of both liberal arts and sciences should pay special attention to it\", and at least half of the courses in primary and secondary schools were devoted to the national language, history and Chinese culture. Schools at all levels were required to offer Life and Ethics and Basic Teaching Materials on Chinese Culture, emphasizing students' training in ancient languages and the inculcation of traditional culture. Chiang Kai-shek's common motto for all schools is almost always \"propriety, righteousness, honesty and shame\", in an effort to root out traditional culture.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t <\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tChiang Kai-shek also supervised the introduction of financial and legal guarantees for education. Since1969<\/span>Beginning in 2007, Taiwan's compulsory education started from6<\/span>Years extended to9<\/span>years, which not only improved the quality of the whole population and helped the economy to take off, but also sowed the seeds for traditional culture to take root in the society. And at the same time, Chiang Kai-shek also promoted the national culture and educated the national spirit through the traditional Chinese festivals.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t <\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tUnder the policy of the \"Chinese Culture Revival Movement\" implemented in the 1960s, subjects related to the study of classical Chinese culture were heavily emphasized in Taiwan at that time, from elementary school education to university entrance examinations, as well as examinations for government officials. In particular, the teachings of Confucianism, with Confucius as the main subject, were particularly highly regarded. The reason for this was that the Communist Party of China (CPC), for the sake of political struggles at that time, carried out the so-called \"Criticize Forests and Confucius\" campaign and branded the Confucianism of Confucius as \"the culture of the reactionaries\". In order to resist the CCP's suppression of Confucianism, Chiang Kai-shek established the Confucius and Mencius Society in Taiwan with the mission of defending Confucianism, and the Chinese Culture University with the aim of revitalizing the Chinese culture as an educational goal, in order to carry out the development and research of Chinese culture. The University of Chinese Culture was also established for the purpose of revitalizing Chinese culture.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t <\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tOn the political level, the KMT summarized the thesis of the transmission of the Chinese Taoist lineage, saying that the orthodoxy of the Chinese people was inherited from Yao, Shun, Yu, Tang, Wen, Wu, Zhou Gong, and Confucius, and that Chiang Kai-shek was the contemporary heir to this Taoist lineage, which was also a legitimate source of his political appeals to the Chinese people both at home and abroad; on the cultural level, the KMT also assembled a group of scholars to publish a series of scholarly writings on the Chinese culture and conducted loyalty and filial piety education in schools. On the cultural level, the KMT also assembled a group of scholars to publish a series of scholarly works on Chinese culture, and taught loyalty and filial piety in schools, compiled and printed the \"Basic Textbook of Culture,\" had scholars promote the doctrines of Confucius and Mencius, and implemented a civic ethics program in primary and secondary schools.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t <\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Chinese culture revival movement has also had a profoundly positive impact on a whole generation of Taiwanese scholars and youth. As a result of the political encouragement of the spirit of cultural root-searching, many masterpieces of national enthusiasm have appeared in the fields of academia, literature and art in Taiwan. It can be said that during the ten years of the Cultural Revolution on the mainland, there was a high tide of revitalization of Chinese culture in Taiwan.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t <\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIt is worth mentioning: when the National Government retreated to Taiwan it carried all the important cultural relics from the Palace Museum in Beijing to Taiwan. Perhaps Mr. Chiang had the foresight that if the artifacts had not been taken away in the first place, they would most likely have had to be destroyed during the Cultural Revolution. This can be regarded as a matter not to be taken lightly in the great migration in the history of human civilization! Because this batch of the National Palace Museum relics carried to Taiwan, can be considered a spiritual symbol of Chinese civilization, which also allows the later with the National Government to migrate to Taiwan this group of intellectuals, can rely on the protection of the spirit of Chinese civilization.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t <\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t1975<\/span>surname Nian4<\/span>moon5<\/span>Chiang Kai-shek passed away on the day, and his will reads, \"Practicing the Three Principles of the People, restoring the mainland land, reviving the national culture, and holding fast to the democratic formation are the things that I aspire to do in my life.\" After Chiang Kai-shek's death, the mission of reviving Chinese culture was inherited by his son Chiang Ching-kuo.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t <\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tMr. Chiang launched the \"Chinese Culture Revival Movement\" under the slogan of \"Revive Chinese Culture and Restore the Mainland\". The Chinese Culture Revival Movement removed the influence of Japanese colonial culture and fully restored the traditional Chinese culture, making Taiwan the area where Chinese people live in the world today that is most capable of inheriting the traditional Chinese culture.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t <\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Chinese culture revival movement has laid a good foundation of national education for several generations of Taiwanese, cultivating a rich cultural soil on the island. In Taiwan, not only are Confucius' birthdays celebrated at the Confucius Temple on the island, but other festivals are also celebrated by celebrities who organize poetry gatherings, and ordinary people often recite poems and sing in harmony when they are drunk.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t <\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tTo this day, Taiwanese people are still generally stronger than mainlanders in their Chinese language skills.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
