Abstract

The aim of my article is to present the „Conceptual and Symbolic Identity of Middle Kingdom”. How to explain it? The written language is the foundation of Chinese culture. The manner o f reasoning the soul of Chinese is possible only through the prism o f Chinese culture. To understand the mind of Chineses people we should seek firstly in the basic language, because every language is a foundation of culture without which the given culture would neither survive nor be developed. The language promotes creation of the national identity, as a universal medium of interpersonal communication, introducing designs of thinking and rational. The Chinese manner is expressed by symbols and notions. The Chinese in communication always were always reserved, considerate on their own statements, often with the Chinese mask formed in secular Chinese culture. That’s why symbolic forms, rituals, made the unit (individual) with a member of the decent and well ordered society. What is the traditional manner of reasoning? Chinese in their thinking and reasoning bear upon history and work of classical (eternal) which makes for them the datum point as the highest authority to follow. Many Chinese – Christians believe in the moral renovation of China, and among them – certainly it will follow, but not behind the matter of Chinese traditions, revolutions, whether the party, but behind the matter of religion, namely Christianity – as religion of love, is not subject of this discussion.
