高语境文化和低语境文化对中国人时间观念进步的影响

摘 要

时间和人们的生活息息相关。任何文化和人类的活动都可以体现在人们对时

间的理解和观念上。不同的文化塑造了不同的时间观念，而且时间观念是反应文

化的一面重要镜子。爱德华.霍尔认为高语境文化和低语境文化中的时间观念明

显不同。在传统儒家文化影响下的中国逐渐形成了高语境文化，由此衍生出了延

续五千多年的根深蒂固的传统时间观念。近年来中国和在低语境文化影响下的国

家的接触逐渐增多，时间观念的不同引发了很多矛盾。但是受低语境文化的影响

中国人的时间取向和时间观也有了很大的改变，更有利于跨文化交际的顺利进

行。本文重点探索高语境文化和低语境文化对中国人时间观念的积极影响和改

观。
