Enlighten Students with traditional Chinese culture

As the only country with a literature written in one language for more than 5,000 consecutive years, China has a very old and rich tradition in literature. In addition to philosophical, religious, and historical writings, China is active in creating brilliant poetry, novels, and dramatic writings from an early date.


       While philosophical writings from great thinkers such as Confucius (551-479 BC) and Lao-tzu were often about how people should act and how the society and political system should be organized and operated, poetry, drama and other forms of literature often center on themes such as nature, emotions and love.


       In order to further preserve the broad and profound Chinese culture and enable our students to further comprehend the inter-relationship between literature, society and culture, Chengdu Experimental Foreign Languages School West Campus launched the activity of “Cultivate students with traditional Chinese Culture” in March. By reading these brilliant and witty lines from those classical works, students are doing their part to inherit world views, sensibilities, and unique qualities from their ancestors.
