英国汉学家哈罗德·阿克顿爵士(Sir Harold Mario Mitchell Acton CBE)的《牡丹与马驹》(Peonies and Ponies)以跨文化的视角,将以西方文化为代表的异质文化为隐性标杆,名为仰慕中国,实以异质文化为他者之镜,探析两种文明邂逅下的文化碰撞与交融,以汲其成果为异质文化所用。这种拾取的目光,是既诞于自体文化模子,又衍生于相宜环境中的“爱美家”的文化追索。 Peonies and Ponies of Sir Harold Mario Mitchell Acton CBE, from a cross-cultural perspective, implicitly embed heterogeneous cultures represented by Western culture Benchmarks, called admiration of China, in fact heterogeneous culture as the mirror of the other, to explore the cultural collision and blend of the two civilizations encounter, in order to draw its achievements as heterogeneous culture. This kind of pick-up is the cultural pursuit of “Amy Home” which is both born in self-culture mode and derived from suitable environment.
