The rapid development of advanced technology makes multiculturalism stand out and also makes conflicts between China and the West increase. In that case, it becomes more and more important to recognize the similarities and differences of costume culture between China and the West. Nowadays, the whole world is, to some extent, dominated by the western costume culture, which has wound its way into the daily life of the whole world, together with technology, life style and values from the West. Quite popular in China, it’s nominally called “internationalization” or “globalization”. In recent years, the costume industry of China has developed swiftly. The “international” costume, featured by the western costume culture, has become a pretty important part of our daily life. However, as our economy takes off, international status rises and living standard improves, a wave of national costume culture resurgence is rising. Moreover, people from the West pay more and more attention to the giant dragon in the East——China. Western costume designers constantly introduce Chinese costume cultural elements to their latest designs. Those phenomena arouse a series of thoughts: what distinguishes Chinese costume culture from the western one? Are there any similarities between them? What kind of costume culture will we Chinese hold as the mainstream in the future, the so-called “international” western one, the Chinese one or the fusion of the two? To obtain the answers to these questions, we are supposed to study and contrast carefully the characteristics and developing processes of them, and then draw some regularity. To contrast the costume culture between China and the West, it is necessary for us to master a good knowledge of the Chinese and western costume cultural 1 Chinese and western dress The different features of Chinese and western dress China is known as “Xia” as it’s a land of propriety, and it’s also known as “Hua” with the beauty of its costume. (①《左传》p83) Our national costume is Hanfu. It originated in the Yanhuang era, formed in the Spring and Autumn Period and officially took form in Han Dynasty. That’s the reason why it’s called “Hanfu”. Since then, in spite of historical evolutions of all ages, their basic characteristics have never changed. Hanfu, on the whole, can be divided into four developing stages: Zhou Han Hanfu, Wei Jin Hanfu, Sui Tang Hanfu and Song Ming Hanfu. Zhou Han Hanfu was featured by dignity and simplicity, while Wei Jin Hanfu by chic and elegance, Sui Tang Hanfu by dignified, graceful, elegant and poised style. Hanfu in Song and Ming Dynasties epitomizes the characteristics of the past-simple, dignified, elegant, etc. In Qing Dynasty, Hanfu was forbidden by the government and disappeared from the land of China. The main features of Chinese clothing are focusing on the right collar’s overlap, the band deducted hidden, big sleeves, no buttons and using string binding, giving the impression of free and easy flowing. These characteristics are obviously different from those of other ethnic costumes. Hanfu is divided into uniform and common clothing. With strict standards, uniform is dressed on formal occasions while the common clothing, without long sleeves, is very convenient to people’s daily life. However, the western clothing is different form the Chinese clothing. The West belongs to Marine civilization, it emphasizes the subjective and objective separation and that we should rationally treat clothing, advocate releasing personality, stress dress effect and be good at showing beautiful the posture of the body. Besides, we use various clipping, color collocation means to perfect bodily curve and give a person with visual comfort in the modeling. A suit, also known as a business suit, comprises a collection of matching clothing consisting of: a coat﹙commonly known as a jacket﹚,a waistcoat﹙optional﹚﹙USA vest﹚for men, a pair of trousers﹙USA pants﹚, or for women, a shirt or trousers. A suit is generally accompanied by torment, a shirt and tie or for women, a blouse. Why people wear clothingChinese people are concerned more about its social function of helping to rule a country well than that of keeping warm or decorating. It has a lot to do with ruling a country to regulate the dressing way of the common people. Nevertheless, the westerners pay more attention to its wealth value and function. Therefore, people put on clothing for functional and social reasons. The functional reason The first use of clothing is to resist the cold and cover the body. Functions of clothing include providing the human body protection against extremes of climate (extreme heat, icy winters, and drenching storms) and protection against insects, noxious, chemicals, and contact with abrasive substances. In sum, clothing protects human beings against anything that might injure the naked, unprotected human body. The social reason Clothing also delivers social messages to other humans. Social messages sent by clothing, accessories, and decorations can involve social status, occupation, ethnic and religious belief, marital status, cultural degree and sexual availability, etc. For example, only Roman citizens can wear “Toga” in Rome while dragon robe can only be dressed by the emperor in China.
Western novels in comparison First, Western novels in the history of the development of Western novels are based on myths and legends of its origin. In ancient times, science developed, out of fear of nature, the working people out of the imagination is the key to many of the world "God", describing the personification of God is a myth; who will describe the deified, that is legend. China opened the world's Pan story, the story of San Juan Five Emperors, the West Greek mythology, Roman mythology, Norse mythology, and so on are all typical works. East and West, the original novel, is closely linked with the history, as historical records complement the event. China Pre-Qin prose in the fable, the Han dynasty in the history books, biographies, the Wei and Jin Zhi, Zhi-person novel; the West of ancient Babylon, "the United States and Ji Jia disabilities epic", in ancient Greece, "Homer's epic," "Aesop's Fables "And so on, fall into this category, fiction, novels such novels have been about the characteristics of fiction, it is still not the literary creation, directly from the private collection record, so this type of fiction plot is relatively simple, writing rough comparison. Ban Gu said, "On the Street Lane words, hearsay are made of" is a novel kind of accurate assessment of the image. China's Tang Dynasty, the novel is only from history and literature become a creativity. Tang Dynasty culture has developed, the author's ideas are more open, the legend came into being at this time, Li Zhaowei "Liu Yi Chuan", Po Chu's "Everlasting Regret," Wolf's "Everlasting Regret Chuan" And so on, are made in accordance with the creation of the legend. For the fictional story of the Tang Dynasty more emphasis on imagination and literary talent, not just the history of the nature of things, but as the history of Zhi Zhi who is also the novel did not stop. The Legend of the Song Dynasty to the novel on a gradual decline, which followed the rise of this so that after processing will become a scholar so many novel and Romance novels such as "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "Outlaws of the Marsh", "Journey to the West." The author of such novels is the use of private creative and re-created to describe the circumstances of the touching scenes of brilliant and vivid active in shaping the character known, there are obvious story-telling style of language. Here by the redevelopment, it will become an independent literary creation rather than things to come together with the civil process, the representative of this type is the "Golden Lotus", it was an open and ordinary life on the road, the reality is that literature has come a long way The development of the latter's "A Dream of Red Mansions" in ancient China Geng Shiba realism to the novels of the summit. "54" after the novelist began to learn from China's western fiction writing practices, and gradually out a new path. Western novels, is the "Renaissance" after the rapid development of mature. The development of the Middle Ages novel near-stagnation in the West, 14, the end of the century "Renaissance" to overthrow the literature of the Church of control, 15, appeared in the western end of the century to promote freedom of thought and the liberation of personality in order to describe the reality of life and portray characters from all walks of life for the content of the Humanist novels, is to tie in with this type of novel anti-feudal Europe at the time of arising at the same time it also set the novel in the West to human describing the tone of the main things. Jiaqiu Italy's "Decameron", Spain's Cervantes "Don Quixote" is the kind of representative works of fiction. The resulting novel is a classical, elegant favor of its national language to standardize the writing of this novel in 17th century France's most well-developed. As a note on behalf of Corneille's "Cid" neoclassical story of the rise of Western novels have been a language substantially improved. The beginning of the 18th century to promote popular science knowledge, enlightenment of the public consciousness for the purpose of the Enlightenment novels, of which there are relatively well-known German Goethe's "Faust", the United Kingdom Defoe's "Robinson Crusoe" and the Swift "Gulliver's Travels" and so on, this type of novel to the emergence of the bourgeois revolution at the time to mold public opinion. In the 19th century, romantic fiction, realistic novels and critical realism novel turn to occupy the leading position in the field of fiction. Romantic novels, such as France Victor Hugo's "Notre Dame de Paris", Goethe's "juvenile Witt of trouble" and so on, imaginative, unusual ideas, language and imaginative, strong feelings. Efforts to reflect the reality of the novel is the essence of life, and depict typical life of a typical phenomenon in the United Kingdom Dickens, France and Germany are of such novels as a representative of the writer. Critical realism novels exposed the efforts of the decadent feudal system and capitalist society, the dark, in-depth criticism of the reality of evil, France Balzac and Maupassant, the United Kingdom of Charlotte, Bronte,. Russia's Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, the United States of a large number of writers such as Mark Twain's works belong to this category. Value today, the three novels in the West is still the most important of the three types of literary fiction. East-West novel on the history of the development of more or less the case. Second, the characteristics of the novel in the West In addition to the basic characteristics of the novel, the story of the West also have their own characteristics are as follows: 1, the traditional Chinese novel attention to the characters, language and the details of the description, in contradiction to the conflict to display the images, but the character of a single, small changes in the absence of the main flu. Western novels are more people pay attention to the psychological description, stressed that mining figure in the subconscious mind, good at writing full, the changes in the strong sense of the main characters. Again, "coach Lin Feng Snow Mountain Temple" in the figure is only through dialogue and action leads to contradictions and conflicts, but Anna Karenina Wogui before a series of conflicts only with his description of the psychological will be able to express their clear; for poetry in Lin In the performance of her literary talent, and Paul with his inner monologue of the ideal; Zhang Zhong-Yong has only the character, but Jane Eyre's character is the brave, strong, warm, kind-hearted, and so many of the character and rubbing and Cheng's. In short, people in the area described in the West has its own unique features. 2, China compared with Western fiction novel plot twists and turns more and more complete story. Plot twists and turns, the story is complete fiction China's unique traditional arts. The Wei and Jin Zhi Zhi people on the novel twists and turns with vivid characteristics. Tang legend in the layout of many of the famous, magnificent anomaly, rigorous and clever, dramatic plot development. The contents of the Ming and Qing Dynasties novels scattered irregular, undulating waves, Cuoluoyouzhi, careful structure, an integral whole. "A Dream of Red Mansions", everywhere She Fu, Hui turning point, the story of Jia's best writing. Western plot in respect of the outstanding works, although there are many, but it can not be compared with the Chinese novel. 3, concise and lively Chinese language novel, rich in content and rich Western novels. Chinese folk artists absorbed the novel language, at the same time inherited the fine traditions of ancient prose, often a few words will be able to outline the incident or the people. Western novels in the author includes a broad range of knowledge, involve the community in many ways, so rich in content and rich people can gain knowledge in many areas. Engels said he was in Balzac's novel about 19th century France's domestic situation than he received any reports are more. Western novels have different characteristics, and also in the West different aesthetic concepts to a certain extent related. 4, Western novels have been the rule of the feudal culture of oppression destroyed. Chinese feudal culture makes the development of the novel is extremely difficult, Ming and Qing Dynasties more people to write stories for shame, so many great writers living, creating the conditions are not covered, many of the great works of authors who do not know. Western novels in the feudal culture makes almost the whole of the Middle Ages in the development of extremely slow, and many talented writers were forced to church services, wrote some of the religious nature of the article dry hole. Third, Western novels in the future prospects for the development of End of the Qing Dynasty, China and the West have begun to understand the other side of the system, the advantages of the novel in the West have been constantly learn from each other. Of course, due to historical reasons, the Chinese side of the draw a little more. To this day, the novelist in the West efforts are still two researchers in the novel's artistic charm, although the different languages of each other's appreciation of the arts to a certain extent, but the United States are interlinked. We have every reason to believe that in the near future, the novel art in the West will ultimately learn from each other and integrate, develop and reach new artistic heights.

一、 差异的主要表现
1、色彩
一个民族对颜色的喜好从某种意义上反映了这个民族潜意识的性格特征。在夏、商、周时，黑色被中国的先人认为是支配万物的天帝色彩。后来人们把对天神(黑色) 的崇拜转向对大(黄色) 的崇拜,所以形成“黄为贵”的传统观念。
传统服装色彩受阴阳五行影响,有青、红、黑、白、黄五色之说,它们被称为正色,其他颜色为间色。正色在大多数朝代为上等社会专用,表示高贵。
在民间,正色也是人们衣着配色所喜爱和追求的颜色。我国古代封建等级制度森严，这一点也表现在服装上:先开始于民间,一旦被皇家贵族看中,就禁止民间使用,否则,轻者杀身,重者株连九族；如果一种服装的色彩开始是皇家贵族所穿,后来不穿了,成为一般民间服装,则这种服装的色彩立即被视为卑贱的色彩。
而在西方,在罗马时代最流行的色彩是白色和紫色。白色象征纯洁、正直、神圣，也代表魅力。这也是西方人喜欢选择白色作为婚纱礼服的原因。人们也曾对服饰上充满宗教气氛的色彩也十分向往。欧洲文艺复兴以来,随着服饰奢华程度的升级,明亮的色彩受到人们的欢迎。
法国人钟情于丁香色和蔷薇色,也很迷恋含蓄的天蓝和圣洁的白色;西班牙人却崇尚高雅的玫瑰红和灰色调;在英国,黑色有意想不到的复杂及强烈感，因为黑色被认为是神秘、高贵的色彩,但有时也被用于沉默、不吉利或悲哀的丧服。
2、外形
从外形特征上来讲,中国传统服装的外形强调纵向感觉,常用下垂的线条、过手的长袖和筒形的袍裙。中国传统服装形式以前开型的大襟和对襟式样为主。上衣下裳制和衣裳连属制为中国服装的两种基本形制，两种形制在中国几千年的历史中交叉使用，相容并蓄。
西洋服装在样式上有一个演变过程，由古希腊时的披裹式到中世纪的以披裹式的非成型类衣和前开式的半成型类衣为主。中国传统服装的外形自衣领部位开始自然下垂，不夸张肩部，常用下垂的线条、过手的长袖、筒形的袍裙强调纵向感觉，使着装人体显得修长。
而西洋古典服装的外形强调横向感觉，常采用横向扩张的肩部轮廓、各种硬领、轮状领、膨胀的袖型、庞大的裙撑、重叠的花边和花朵以及浆过的纱料和各部位的衬垫，使服装线条产生夸张和向外放射的效果。
而且从结构特征看，无论袍、衫、襦、褂，通常只有袖底缝和侧摆相连的一条结构线。中式服装采用中国传统的平面直线裁剪方法，无起肩和袖窿部分，整件衣服可以平铺于地，结构简单舒展。
西方服装为了最终取得与三维人体相吻合的具有立体效果，多采用立体裁剪方法，立体裁剪方法视人体为多面体至少是四面体，细心对待人体从上到下、从前到后各个方面的凸凹起伏关系，利用打褶和省道处理等服装工艺手段。
3、图案
中西服饰在对图案的选择上也呈现五花八门之势。从古到今,从高贵绸缎到民间印花布,吉祥图样运用极为广泛。人们都喜欢运用各种图案来隐喻对图腾崇拜，表达对美满生活的希望，如龙凤呈祥、九龙戏珠、喜鹊登梅等图样。这表明中式服装喜好运用图案表示吉祥的祝愿。
西欧服装上的图案随着历史的变迁而不断变化。
古代多流行花草放样,意大利文艺复兴时期流行华丽的花卉图案,法国路易十五时期,受洛可可装饰风格的影响,流行表现S形或旋涡形的藤草和轻淡柔和的庭院花草放样。野兽派的杜飞花样、利用几何绪视原理设计的欧普图案等则是近代流行的图案花样。

中国服饰的历史源远流长，从原始社会、夏商周、春秋战国、秦汉、魏晋南北朝、隋唐、宋辽夏金元、明、清，到近现代，都以鲜明特色为世界所瞩目，主要以汉服为主，另外还有胡服、旗装等。
“西方”，沿用了关于区域范畴的习惯称谓，与亚洲一带的“东方”相对。西方服装史，即是以西欧国家为主，上溯至美索不达米亚和埃及的服装发展史。西方服装体现出与东方服装相迥异的风格，特别是其中所蕴含的文化元素，代表了人类服装史的一个重要组成部分。

二、导致中西方服饰差异的原因分析
1、中西服饰文化的差异
中国几千年来的历史进程中，我们的祖先创造了底蕴深厚的宽衣服饰文化，形成了特有的美学与哲学观念，与西方截然不同。
西方则强调主观世界与客观世界分离，明确提出主观为我，客观为物，“物”与“我”是相对立的，不容混淆的，致使他们习惯于理性观察世界和探讨规律，并形成一种追求自然法则以获得真理的作法。因而，表现出以一种理性的或科学性的态度对待服饰。
2、中西方美学观念的差异
中国服饰美学观念表现在女装造型上的是意象的结构。
这种平面的直线与曲线的裁剪方法使衣服适体又不完全合体，不裸露张扬也不尽力束缚，在遮体的隐约之中含蓄地显现了流畅婉约，温情流动的人体曲线美，造型意识是节奏化的，让视点随着自己的心愿移动，使生命之体在宽衣的帖体与离体之间流露气韵。
我国传统的服装空间造型是借“虚与实”、“明与暗”的节奏表达出来。西方的服装空间意识是在中世纪以后形成的，反映了西方人对空间的探求心理，渴望占据更多的空间，于是增大服装造型的体积，将服装视为扩大自我肉体的一种工具。
这种夸张的服装造型使人与自然整体之间，人与人的个体之间保持着一定的距离，反映了西方人的宇宙观，也反映了人与自然万物、心灵与环境、主观与客观的对立性。由于东方与西方不同的哲学美学观念在服装上创造了不同的基本造型，体现了不同的精神气韵。
3、中西服饰文化中的着装理念的差异
在中国传统的社会及家庭教育中，服装行为规范被看作是修身的一个重要内容，并长期影响着中国人的着装生活。人们在着装上注重伦理内容，用服装掩盖人体，竭力超越人体的局限，以达到儒家的道德要求。服装美注重表现人的精神、气质、神韵之美，并不强调形体。
西方服装文化属于多元化的范畴，其中最显著的特点是服装突出个性，显示个性。

中西服饰文化对比总结 通过做这次作业，我对中西方服饰文化有了一些更深入的了解与感悟。用一句话来总结就是时代在发展、社会在进步、中西服饰在融合。越来越国际化。下面我就来总结一下中西方各自服饰文化的特点以及进行一下差异对比。 中国服饰的特点： ①式样，女子穿上衣下裳式样的较多，男子多穿上下连属的袍衫。 ②外形，外形强调纵向感觉，使着装人体显得修长，特别是使四肢有拔长感。 ③结构特征，外形强调纵向感觉，使着装人体显得修长，特别是使四肢有拔长感。 ④图案，喜好运用图案表示吉祥的祝愿。 西方服饰的特点： ①古波斯服饰，披挂、直筒紧身式 ②古希腊服饰，优美、典雅 ③古罗马服饰，豪华富丽、庄严 ④拜占庭服饰，造型呆板、僵硬 ⑤哥特式服饰，新奇、怪诞和大胆 ⑥文艺复兴时期服饰，人体曲线成为了服装的审美关键 ⑦巴洛克服饰，男装最艳丽最疯狂的时期 ⑧洛可可服饰，将女人推到繁华至极的盛装 中西服饰文化的共同点： ①社会功能，中国人很早就以服装来“辨等威、显贵贱”，用森严的服饰制度来规范各色人等的社会行为和权限。西方人也同样重视这种社会功能，进入封建社会后，虽然西方的封建官员还没有中国历代那样完整的章服制度和区分级别的“制服”，但王宫贵族的穿戴与一般平民是有鲜明区别的。 ②装饰审美功能，服装的装饰审美功能已经越来越受到人们的重视，已成为推动服装改进创新的一大源动力。 ③形态构成，从造型理念和造型意识上看，都是平面的。从裁制方式上看，都是直线裁剪的。 对于中西服饰的发展与交，流相信在将来会有更大的进步空间 。作为人类文化的组成部分，两种服饰文化之间也有许多相似甚至相同的地方，这是两者之间相互融合，共存、共荣的基础。未来中西双方的服饰文化会有质的飞越。

Abstract: Dress culture is a cultural phenomenon unique to human beings. As it has different aesthetic ideas, different dressing concepts and different dress etiquette in China and west, it forms Chinese and western dress culture of the different connotation and characteristics.

The second part describes cultural differences between Chinese and western clothing. The third part gives an analysis of Chinese and western dress culture. The last part describes Chinese and western dress aesthetic culture and dress concept. Based on the analysis, the thesis finally draws a conclusion. Chinese and western dress culture each has rich connotation and distinct characteristics, which are precious cultural legacy which is left by human ancestors and are the world culture heritage.

The rapid development of advanced technology makes multiculturalism stand out and also makes conflicts between China and the West increase. In that case, it becomes more and more important to recognize the similarities and differences of costume culture between China and the West. Nowadays, the whole world is, to some extent, dominated by the western costume culture, which has wound its way into the daily life of the whole world, together with technology, life style and values from the West. Quite popular in China, it’s nominally called “internationalization” or “globalization”. In recent years, the costume industry of China has developed swiftly. The “international” costume, featured by the western costume culture, has become a pretty important part of our daily life. However, as our economy takes off, international status rises and living standard improves, a wave of national costume culture resurgence is rising. Moreover, people from the West pay more and more attention to the giant dragon in the East——China. Western costume designers constantly introduce Chinese costume cultural elements to their latest designs. Those phenomena arouse a series of thoughts: what distinguishes Chinese costume culture from the western one? Are there any similarities between them? What kind of costume culture will we Chinese hold as the mainstream in the future, the so-called “international” western one, the Chinese one or the fusion of the two? To obtain the answers to these questions, we are supposed to study and contrast carefully the characteristics and developing processes of them, and then draw some regularity. To contrast the costume culture between China and the West, it is necessary for us to master a good knowledge of the Chinese and western costume cultural 1 Chinese and western dress The different features of Chinese and western dress China is known as “Xia” as it’s a land of propriety, and it’s also known as “Hua” with the beauty of its costume. (①《左传》p83) Our national costume is Hanfu. It originated in the Yanhuang era, formed in the Spring and Autumn Period and officially took form in Han Dynasty. That’s the reason why it’s called “Hanfu”. Since then, in spite of historical evolutions of all ages, their basic characteristics have never changed. Hanfu, on the whole, can be divided into four developing stages: Zhou Han Hanfu, Wei Jin Hanfu, Sui Tang Hanfu and Song Ming Hanfu. Zhou Han Hanfu was featured by dignity and simplicity, while Wei Jin Hanfu by chic and elegance, Sui Tang Hanfu by dignified, graceful, elegant and poised style. Hanfu in Song and Ming Dynasties epitomizes the characteristics of the past-simple, dignified, elegant, etc. In Qing Dynasty, Hanfu was forbidden by the government and disappeared from the land of China. The main features of Chinese clothing are focusing on the right collar’s overlap, the band deducted hidden, big sleeves, no buttons and using string binding, giving the impression of free and easy flowing. These characteristics are obviously different from those of other ethnic costumes. Hanfu is divided into uniform and common clothing. With strict standards, uniform is dressed on formal occasions while the common clothing, without long sleeves, is very convenient to people’s daily life. However, the western clothing is different form the Chinese clothing. The West belongs to Marine civilization, it emphasizes the subjective and objective separation and that we should rationally treat clothing, advocate releasing personality, stress dress effect and be good at showing beautiful the posture of the body. Besides, we use various clipping, color collocation means to perfect bodily curve and give a person with visual comfort in the modeling. A suit, also known as a business suit, comprises a collection of matching clothing consisting of: a coat﹙commonly known as a jacket﹚,a waistcoat﹙optional﹚﹙USA vest﹚for men, a pair of trousers﹙USA pants﹚, or for women, a shirt or trousers. A suit is generally accompanied by torment, a shirt and tie or for women, a blouse. Why people wear clothingChinese people are concerned more about its social function of helping to rule a country well than that of keeping warm or decorating. It has a lot to do with ruling a country to regulate the dressing way of the common people. Nevertheless, the westerners pay more attention to its wealth value and function. Therefore, people put on clothing for functional and social reasons. The functional reason The first use of clothing is to resist the cold and cover the body. Functions of clothing include providing the human body protection against extremes of climate (extreme heat, icy winters, and drenching storms) and protection against insects, noxious, chemicals, and contact with abrasive substances. In sum, clothing protects human beings against anything that might injure the naked, unprotected human body. The social reason Clothing also delivers social messages to other humans. Social messages sent by clothing, accessories, and decorations can involve social status, occupation, ethnic and religious belief, marital status, cultural degree and sexual availability, etc. For example, only Roman citizens can wear “Toga” in Rome while dragon robe can only be dressed by the emperor in China.
服饰文化是一种整体文化。它是指服装、饰物、穿着方式、装扮，包括发型、化妆在内的多种因素的有机整体。服饰文化是一个民族、一个国家文化素质的物化，是内在精神的外观，是社会风貌的显示。由于历史条件、生活方式、心理素质和 文化观念的差别，中西方的服饰文化有着较大的差别。中国传统服饰文化观念的特色1、善于表达形与色的含蓄朦朦胧胧,藏而不露,隐含寓意,给人以审美的感受。这种含蓄,有时通过款式展现, 有时也可通过造型、布局、色彩、线条等手段给人以整体和谐之美。2、注重精细的艺术手法和工艺表现大量采用刺绣、飘带、图案和其它装饰手法,表达丰富的想象,以浪漫主义情调达到现实主义的效果。3、注重气派稳重的氛围效果服装的整体配合给人以秩序和谐美感,严肃庄重,美观高雅,能起到烘托月之效,服饰文化与环境相配合,更具鲜明的时代感。4、注重服饰文化的民族性服饰文化是一个民族个性的重要标志之一。服饰作为一种民俗现象,具有鲜明的民族性。不同民族长期交往,服饰文化互相影响和渗透,甚至有意借鉴和模仿。但是中华民族有自己的审美趣味,伦理道德,因而有自己的着装规范。5、受中国传统文化的影响A、 注重营造和平统一的气氛孔子曰：“见人不可不饰,不饰无貌,无貌不敬,不敬无礼,无礼不立。”时过千年,在以孔孟之道为核心的大一统思想指导下,中国服饰也力求稳重、平静,有助于安宁、融洽和礼让之先的人际关系。B、“文质彬彬”——儒家对服饰的审美观文是指一个人服饰的美,质是指一个人资质的美。C、“披褐怀玉”一一道家对服饰的审美观“清水出芙蓉,天然去雕饰”，若不以论诗,而以论人,正可为道家对服饰的审美观。西方服饰文化观念的特色1、 崇尚人体美从古希腊时代至今，西方艺术包括服饰在内，常把讴歌和显示人体自然美当作无上的典型。因 此服饰在西方人的身上成了“副件”：女性通过裸露或挂丝尽显其形体之美,男性则更赤裸地表现肌肤的健康和力量的强大。2、 服装是为了吸引异性对自己的注意西方服饰通过对人体曲线和对某些敏感部位作裸露处理,最大限度地发挥服饰吸引力,给人以不可言状的美感,以此产生心理效应,使人迅速进入纯粹的审美境界。3、突 出表现个性西方人着装重在表现自我,寻求对平衡的突破和片面性的掘进,自我设计、自我表现、自我创造而别具一格；通过着装充分表明自我的理想境界和各种观念,借以标明自我。4、 追求感官刺激西方服饰时刻使欣赏者能顿发性感,形成不寻常的感官剌激。设计大师通过精心设计,独特的色彩搭配组合和特殊的线条分割,充分体现性的心理、生理特征。因此在西方,性感明显的服饰比比皆是。

1、衣服颜色的选择有所不同
自古以来，中国就有一种倡导红色的民族心理。在中国服饰文化中，红色是最吉祥，最节日，最昂贵的颜色。在古罗马时期，西方服饰以白色意义建立，纯粹和紫色象征着高贵的色彩偏好，这意味着注重赋予色彩一定的情感意义。
2、服装特征的差异
与中国相比，西方服装的色彩更具个性，主要体现在突厥人的性别人格和自我个性。性别人格主要表现在男性要穿平静的颜色，而女性则应穿着色彩斑斓的礼服。自我个性主要表现在“三不”：无论性别，无论季节，不论年龄。
3、衣服结构的差异
中式服装结构是整体扁平型，强调立体空间的效果，服装直而松散。西式服装结构分为立体，强调立体效果，服装更贴切。

导致中西方服饰差异的原因分析
1、中西服饰文化的差异
中国几千年来的历史进程中，我们的祖先创造了底蕴深厚的宽衣服饰文化，形成了特有的美学与哲学观念，与西方截然不同。
西方则强调主观世界与客观世界分离，明确提出主观为我，客观为物，“物”与“我”是相对立的，不容混淆的，致使他们习惯于理性观察世界和探讨规律，并形成一种追求自然法则以获得真理的作法。因而，表现出以一种理性的或科学性的态度对待服饰。
2、中西方美学观念的差异
中国服饰美学观念表现在女装造型上的是意象的结构。
这种平面的直线与曲线的裁剪方法使衣服适体又不完全合体，不裸露张扬也不尽力束缚，在遮体的隐约之中含蓄地显现了流畅婉约，温情流动的人体曲线美，造型意识是节奏化的，让视点随着自己的心愿移动，使生命之体在宽衣的帖体与离体之间流露气韵。
我国传统的服装空间造型是借“虚与实”、“明与暗”的节奏表达出来。西方的服装空间意识是在中世纪以后形成的，反映了西方人对空间的探求心理，渴望占据更多的空间，于是增大服装造型的体积，将服装视为扩大自我肉体的一种工具。
这种夸张的服装造型使人与自然整体之间，人与人的个体之间保持着一定的距离，反映了西方人的宇宙观，也反映了人与自然万物、心灵与环境、主观与客观的对立性。由于东方与西方不同的哲学美学观念在服装上创造了不同的基本造型，体现了不同的精神气韵。

服饰文化是一种整体文化。它是指服装、饰物、穿着方式、装扮，包括发型、化妆在内的多种因素的有机整体。服饰文化是一个民族、一个国家文化素质的物化，是内在精神的外观，是社会风貌的显示。由于历史条件、生活方式、心理素质和 文化观念的差别，中西方的服饰文化有着较大的差别。中国传统服饰文化观念的特色1、善于表达形与色的含蓄朦朦胧胧,藏而不露,隐含寓意,给人以审美的感受。这种含蓄,有时通过款式展现, 有时也可通过造型、布局、色彩、线条等手段给人以整体和谐之美。2、注重精细的艺术手法和工艺表现大量采用刺绣、飘带、图案和其它装饰手法,表达丰富的想象,以浪漫主义情调达到现实主义的效果。3、注重气派稳重的氛围效果服装的整体配合给人以秩序和谐美感,严肃庄重,美观高雅,能起到烘托月之效,服饰文化与环境相配合,更具鲜明的时代感。4、注重服饰文化的民族性服饰文化是一个民族个性的重要标志之一。服饰作为一种民俗现象,具有鲜明的民族性。不同民族长期交往,服饰文化互相影响和渗透,甚至有意借鉴和模仿。但是中华民族有自己的审美趣味,伦理道德,因而有自己的着装规范。5、受中国传统文化的影响A、 注重营造和平统一的气氛孔子曰：“见人不可不饰,不饰无貌,无貌不敬,不敬无礼,无礼不立。”时过千年,在以孔孟之道为核心的大一统思想指导下,中国服饰也力求稳重、平静,有助于安宁、融洽和礼让之先的人际关系。B、“文质彬彬”——儒家对服饰的审美观文是指一个人服饰的美,质是指一个人资质的美。C、“披褐怀玉”一一道家对服饰的审美观“清水出芙蓉,天然去雕饰”，若不以论诗,而以论人,正可为道家对服饰的审美观。西方服饰文化观念的特色1、 崇尚人体美从古希腊时代至今，西方艺术包括服饰在内，常把讴歌和显示人体自然美当作无上的典型。因 此服饰在西方人的身上成了“副件”：女性通过裸露或挂丝尽显其形体之美,男性则更赤裸地表现肌肤的健康和力量的强大。2、 服装是为了吸引异性对自己的注意西方服饰通过对人体曲线和对某些敏感部位作裸露处理,最大限度地发挥服饰吸引力,给人以不可言状的美感,以此产生心理效应,使人迅速进入纯粹的审美境界。3、突 出表现个性西方人着装重在表现自我,寻求对平衡的突破和片面性的掘进,自我设计、自我表现、自我创造而别具一格；通过着装充分表明自我的理想境界和各种观念,借以标明自我。4、 追求感官刺激西方服饰时刻使欣赏者能顿发性感,形成不寻常的感官剌激。设计大师通过精心设计,独特的色彩搭配组合和特殊的线条分割,充分体现性的心理、生理特征。因此在西方,性感明显的服饰比比皆是。
至于汉服的基本样式我不用说你也应该知道了，直接切入正题了：礼服 用于祭祖、大典等国事时，尺寸可依旧制 如：袖长过手尺余；也可最长至掌，袖宽最宽只可至尺，以便活动。 常服 传统“常服”袖长不应强迫“过手尺余”，应仅限过掌，或最长仅限至半掌及腕部；袖宽最窄如现代装、最宽只可至尺，以便日常劳作。
中国古代服装分汉服和胡服，双分常服、礼服和朝服。各个时期都不相同。西方服装各民族之间、不同时期也有差异，现在所能去了解的最直观的就是传世画作与雕塑，看看就知道了。
首先，希望你不要以电视电影为准。中国古装片大多是考据不严苛的，所以“创新”多了去了。传统的汉服与西方服饰最大的差别就是汉服采用的是平面裁剪，而西方服饰采用的是立体裁剪。从五官身材上来说，东方人的比较“平”。汉服重重叠叠的式样，更能够凸显出立体感；汉服中一些款式的宽袍博带，则更能掩饰人的身体缺憾。而西式立体裁剪则更为贴身，修身显身材。衣服的大袖，是体制造成的，贵族不需要劳动，于是有了大袖、广袖。东方有贵族，西方一样有，不论是东方西方，都是一样的。正如同东方武者的短袖、箭袖、绑腿，和西方的武士一样，共同发展，其实还是有着共同点的。这是正常的发展趋势。发型问题，首先，抛去电视剧的现代“创意”不说，不论东方西方，发型都是从披发向束发发展的。中国上下五千年历史， 西方那么大，有相同的地方很正常。 但是，发饰是不同的，根据不同的矿物产地，，，，啊哈。~ 还有，气候原因，环境原因，等等等等，对发型都是有影响的。所以呢，你说的中西方，太泛了。不好说。
中西方服饰差异主要有以下几点:
1、衣服颜色的选择有所不同
自古以来，中国就有一种倡导红色的民族心理。在中国服饰文化中，红色是最吉祥，最节日，最昂贵的颜色。在古罗马时期，西方服饰以白色意义建立，纯粹和紫色象征着高贵的色彩偏好，这意味着注重赋予色彩一定的情感意义。
2、服装特征的差异
与中国相比，西方服装的色彩更具个性，主要体现在突厥人的性别人格和自我个性。性别人格主要表现在男性要穿平静的颜色，而女性则应穿着色彩斑斓的礼服。自我个性主要表现在“三不”：无论性别，无论季节，不论年龄。
3、衣服结构的差异
中式服装结构是整体扁平型，强调立体空间的效果，服装直而松散。西式服装结构分为立体，强调立体效果，服装更贴切。
中西服饰差异的原因：
1、审美
如上所述，中国传统服饰的特征之一就是“阴影”，这与中国传统美学密切相关。就像一个美丽的女人不应该在人们面前露出裸体，但应该更加含蓄，带着一点内疚感，“仍然抱着半张脸”是最美丽的状态。
西方传统服饰往往在身体线条上脱颖而出。在前面，女性的胸部被紧身胸衣抬起，腹部变平。后臀部用臀垫抬起，整个形状的特征是正面和背面。整个服装的设计非常女性化和其人物的特征。
2、文化概念
儒家服饰的要求或概念之一是“风格的温柔”，而道教的概念则是“棕色和玉”。两者都是对服装的优雅和庄严的态度。中国一直关注道德，服装反映了自我修养的水平，尊重那些看待它的人。
西方则相反。他们的概念是人与自然的对立，突出了人的个性。西方人认为服装是自我个性的重要组成部分，他们也热衷于通过服装表达自己并做广告。
3、中西方人民自身条件的差异
与西方人相比，东方人的身材和面部特征相对平坦。在形状不是三维的情况下，衣服也相对平坦以掩盖其自身的缺点;西方人的面部特征和身体更加饱满饱满。服装将为美丽增添价值。

不同的文化传统，使得人们价值观念，行为准则和生活方式等方面也存在着相当的文化差异。下文是我为大家整理的关于中西方文化差异论文的范文，欢迎大家阅读参考!
中西方文化差异对日常交际的影响
【摘要】文化是一种社会现象，同时又是一种历史现象,是人们长期创造形成的产物。中西方文化存在许多差异：整体性和个体性的差异;价值观与道德标准的差异;社会礼仪的差异;社会习俗的差异等。本文分析了文化差异对日常交际的影响。了解这些差异有助于更好地实现跨文化交际，避免出现文化休克。
【关键词】中西方文化;差异;交际;教学
1中西方文化的差异
不同的文化传统，使中西方在思维方式，价值观念，行为准则和生活方式等方面也存在着相当的文化差异。在中国封建社会历史的过程中，儒家思想一直占据着根深蒂固的统治地位，对中国社会产生了极其深刻而久远的影响。中国人向来以自我贬仰的思想作为处世经典，接人待物，举止言谈以谦虚为荣，以虚心为本，反对过分地显露自己表现自我。因此，中国文化体现出群体性的文化特征，这种群体性的文化特征是不允许把个人价值凌驾于群体利益之上的。
西方国家价值观的形成至少可以追溯到文艺复兴运动。文艺复兴的指导思想是人文主义，宣扬个人主义至上，竭力发展自己表现自我。生活中人们崇拜的是“强者”“英雄”。有本事，有才能的强者得到重用，缺乏自信的弱者只能落伍或被无情地淘汰。因此，西方文化体现出个体文化特征，这种个体性文化特征崇尚个人价值凌驾于群体利益之上。
文化的不同带来价值观念的不同。如old一词，中国人历来就有“尊老敬老”的传统。“老”在中文里表达尊敬的概念，如老祖宗，老爷爷，老先生,老张，老王等等。中国人往往以年龄大为荣。和别人谈话时，年龄越大，资格越老，也就越会得到别人的尊敬。“姜还是老的辣”。在我们看来，长者不仅是智慧的化身，也是威望的象征。然而，西方国家极少有人愿意倚老卖老而自称”old”。在他们看来，“old”是“不中用”的代名词，是和“不合潮流”“老而无用”的含义连在一起的。英美人不喜欢别人说自己老，更不会倚老卖老。在西方文化中，他们把年龄作为个人极为重要的隐私看待。尤其是女士，更忌讳别人问自己的年龄。即使愿意谈论自己的年龄，也要别人猜测其年龄，而此时，他们的真正目的是期望别人恭维他们看上去比实际年龄小，是多么年轻。又如，中西方两种文化在某些单词所带有褒贬色彩上有差异。如：ambition一词，本身具有褒贬两种含义。中国人用其贬义，表示“野心勃勃”，而英美人则取其褒义，表示“雄心壮志”。Aggressive一词，中国人常用来形容某人“挑衅”“好斗”，而美国人则用来形容某人“进取上进，有开拓精神”。
2跨文化交际的重要性
由于各种各样的原因，导致了中西方有如此多的文化差异，而文化差异又是跨文化交际的障碍。社会的发展将各个不同的国家纳入到一个共同的“地球村”中，跨文化交际成为每个民族生活中不可缺少的部分。例如，一个企业如果想让自己的产品畅销国际市场，不仅需要优质的产品质量，而且需要深入了解不同国家的文化，使该产品在包装设计和实用性方面符合对象国民众的心理需求。如，在中国，“龙(dragon)”是我们的精神图腾，是吉祥和权力的象征，中国人也以作为龙的传人而倍感自豪，然而在西方人眼中，对“龙”就没有这份特殊的情感，甚至将“龙”理解为一种张牙舞爪的可怕怪物。如果某一企业家对此不甚了解，将印有“龙”图案的产品推向国际市场，试想这种产品能否刺激西方人的购买欲?能否给企业创造高效益。所以，克服文化差异造成的交际障碍已经成为面临的问题。在英语教学中在重视语言能力的教学的同时，特别要注意在日常教学中发展学生的交际能力，将语言的文化差异在英语教学中作为一个重要问题对待。
3日常交际中应注意的问题
中西方的文化差异在日常交际中体现在很多方面，在英语学习中应充分地了解这些差异。
日常问候
中国人日常打招呼习惯于问：“你吃饭了吗?”，如果你跟英语国家的人这样说，他们会产生误解，认为你是想请他们吃。，英语国家人打招呼通常以天气，健康状况，交通，体育以及兴趣爱好为话题。又如，中国人见到熟人习惯问：“去哪里?”，如果对西方人也这样问候，他们可能会很不高兴地回答：“不关你的事。”西方人问候时常说:”Goodmorning/afternoon/evening”,”How are you doing?”，熟人间也可以说：“Hello”或“Hi”.
日常称呼
汉语中的亲属称谓有泛化使用的倾向，常用于非亲属之间：年轻人对长辈称“叔叔”“阿姨”;对平辈称“大哥”“大姐”。但在英语中，亲属称谓不广泛地用于社交。如果我们对母语是英语的长辈称“UncleTom”，对方听了会觉得非常奇怪。英语文化中只有关系十分密切的情况下才使用此类亲属称谓。又如中国学生经常把“王老师”称为“Teacher Wang”。其实，英语中teacher只是一种职业;而中国人有尊师的传统，“教师”已不仅仅是一种职业，而成为一种对人的尊重，西方人听起来却感觉不可思议。英语中称呼人一般用Mr.,Miss,等。
感谢
一般来说，我们中国人在家族成员之间很少用“谢谢”。如果用了，听起来会很怪，或相互关系上有了距离。而在英语国家“Thank you.”几乎用于一切场合，所有人之间，即使父母与子女，兄弟姐妹之间也不例外。送上一瓶饮料，准备一桌美餐，对方都会说一声“Thank you.”公共场合，不管别人帮你什么忙，你都要道一声“Thank you..”这是最起码的礼节。
请客
在请客吃饭时，主人会问是否要再吃点或喝点什么时，我们通常习惯于先客气一番，回答：“不用了”“别麻烦了”等。如果与西方人交往时也这样说，对方就不会坚持再劝你，很可能你都吃不饱。按照英语国家的习惯，你若想要，就不必推辞，说声“Yes,please.”若不想要，只要说“No,thanks.”就行了。这也充分体现了中国人交往中的含蓄和西方人直率的不同。
隐私
中国人初次见面经常问及年龄，婚姻，收入，表示关心，而英语国家却对此比较反感，认为这些都涉及个人隐私，因为英语国家人都希望自己在对方眼中显得年轻，对自己实际年龄秘而不宣，妇女更是如此。再如中国人表示关心时，经常问“你在干什么?”，在英语中就成为刺探别人隐私的审问，监视别人的话语而使人很不高兴。
节日及接受礼物
中国和英语国家的文化差异还显著地表现在节日方面。除中国和英语国家共同的节日外，双方还各有自己独特的节日。中国有春节﹑元宵节和端午节等，英语国家有情人节﹑复活节﹑愚人节﹑感恩节﹑圣诞节等。中西方节日的风俗习惯也很不
相同。在节日里，对于别人送来的礼物，中国人往往要推辞一番，表现得无可奈何地接受，接受后一般也不当面打开。如果当面打开并喜形于色，可能招致“贪财”的嫌疑。而在英语文化中，人们对别人送的礼品，一般都要当面打开称赞一番，并且欣然道谢。
4结语
在英语教学中，文化知识的教学方法是多种多样的，教师应该采用不同的方法提高学生对文化的敏感性，培养文化意识，例如：加强中西方文化差异的比较，将中西文化在称呼，招呼语等等谈话题材和价值观念等方面的差异渗透到教学中。总之，中西方的文化存在着很多差异，在英语教学中不能只单纯注意语言教学，而必须加强语言的文化导入，重视语言文化差异对语言的影响。只有这样，才能在日常生活中不仅能说出正确的英语句子，而且知道面对西方人的时候应该说什么，避免出现交际中的尴尬。

论从餐桌礼仪看中西文化差异
[论文摘要]从比较中西餐桌礼仪的餐具使用差异、座次安排差异、就餐氛围差异、及餐桌话语差异四个方面来看跨文化交际中的文化差异，旨在说明坚持自己的优秀文化传统的同时，要采用一个客观、宽容、尊重的心态对待异国文化以便能在跨文化交际中能恰当地、得体地进行交际。
[论文关键词]餐桌礼仪
易中天先生曾经在《餐桌上的文化》里对中西文化进行了精妙阐释中国文化的思想内核是“群体意识”，的思想内核则是“个体意识”。所以西方人即使请客吃饭，也是各点各的菜、各喝各的酒，以免把自己的意志强加于人。中国文化则认为个人的意志，必须服从群体的共同意志。其目的既然意在人情，意在血缘，则其方式礼仪，自然也就以和为贵了，因此中国人爱聚餐、喜共食、讲和合。笔者认为在跨文化交际中，面对陌生文化，因思维方式、生活习惯和行为方式不同，交往过程中难免发生文化冲突。笔者从如下四个方面对中西餐桌礼仪进行简单的比较，以便在跨文化交际中能恰当地、得体地进行交际。
一、从餐具使用上看中西文化差异
筷子刀叉是中西餐桌礼仪最基本差异。浙江大学游修龄教授认为：东西方出现进食工具筷子和刀叉的不同，和有关系。筷子要发源于有竹子的地方。我国北方多木，南方多竹，祖先就地取材，竹木均成为我国最原始的筷箸原料。刀叉的出现比筷子要晚很多。据游修龄教授的研究，刀叉的最初起源和欧洲古代游牧的生活习惯有关，他们马上生活随身带刀，往往将肉烧熟，割下来就吃。大约15世纪前后，为了改进进餐的姿势，欧洲人才使用了双尖的叉。到18世纪才有了四个叉尖的叉子。刀叉和筷子，不仅带来了进食习惯的差异，还影响了东西方人生活观念。游修龄教授认为，刀叉必然带来分食制，而筷子肯定与家庭成员围坐桌边共同进餐相配。西方一开始就分吃，由此衍生出西方人讲究独立，子女长大后就独立闯世界的想法和习惯。而筷子带来的合餐制，突出了老老少少坐一起的家庭单元，从而让东方人拥有了比较牢固的家庭观念。笔者提醒在使用餐具时中西均有不同的规范。如中餐进餐时不可玩弄筷子(把它们当鼓槌是非常失礼的做法)，更不可以用筷子向人指指点点或打手势示意。当然，绝对不可吸吮筷子或把筷子插在米饭中，这是大忌(这好像葬礼上的香烛，被认为是不吉利的)。在使用刀叉时也有一些禁忌。如 手里拿着刀叉时切勿指手画脚。发言或交谈时，应将刀叉放在盘上才合乎礼仪。忌用自己的餐具为别人夹菜。餐具掉落不要弯腰拾捡。餐品不要一次性切好，尤其带汤汁的餐品，要一小块的逐一切食等等。
二、从座次安排上看中西文化差异
中西都讲究正式的宴请活动的座次安排。中国人请客传统上用八仙桌。对门为上，两边为偏座。请客时，年长者、主宾或地位高的人坐上座，男女主人或陪客者坐下座，其余客人按顺序坐偏座。西方人请客用长桌，男女主人分坐两端，然后按男女主宾和一般客人的次序安排座位，即男女穿插安排，以女主人的座位为准，主宾坐在女主人的右上方，主宾夫人坐在男主人的右上方，讲究“女士优先”的西方绅士，都会表现出对女士的殷勤。在中国，左为尊，右为次;上为尊，下为次;中为尊，偏为次。而在西方，右为尊，左为次。
笔者特别提示西餐入座礼仪：最得体的入座方式是从左侧入座。手肘不要放在桌面上，不可跷足。不可在进餐时中途退席(如有事确需离开应向左右的客人小声打招呼)。用餐时，坐姿端正，背挺直，脖子伸长。上臂和背部要靠到椅背,腹部和桌子保持约一个拳头的距离。记得要抬头挺胸着吃，在把面前的食物送进口中时，要以食物就口，而非弯下腰以口去就食物。
三、从就餐氛围上看中西文化差异
中国人餐桌上的闹与西方餐桌上的静是中西餐桌礼仪最根本差异。餐桌气氛上的差异，中国餐桌上动，西方餐桌上静。中国人以食为人生之至乐，排场之大，气氛之热闹常常令人叹为观止。中国人一坐上餐桌，便滔滔不绝，相互让菜，劝酒，尽情的享受山珍海味，美味佳肴。这样的宴客方式才能体现主人的热情和诚恳，餐桌上的热闹反映了食客发自内心的欢快。这种“闹”能从某种程度上折射中国人家庭温馨、邻里和睦、国人团结的“一团和气”。西方人一坐到餐桌上便专心致志的去静静的切割自家的盘中餐。喝汤时不能发出响声，如汤菜过热，可待稍凉后再吃，不要用嘴吹。吃东西时要闭嘴咀嚼。不要舔嘴唇或咂嘴发出声音。进餐时可以与左右客人交谈，但不要只同几个熟人交谈。左右客人如不认识，可先自我介绍。别人讲话不可搭嘴插话。音量保持对方能听见的程度。咀嚼食物不要说话，即使有人同你讲话，也要等咽下食物后再回答。
四、从餐桌话语上看中西文化差异
中国人请客吃饭时，摆在桌上的菜花样繁多，至少有七、八道菜，如果是盛宴，主菜会更多，越名贵、越奇特的菜会越显示主任的殷勤和客人的身份。而主人却往往要说“今天没有什么好菜招待大家”、“菜做得不好，多吃一点” “多多包涵”、 “怠慢了您”之类的话。而西方盛宴一般四至五道菜，份量以吃完或稍有剩余为最佳。如果在家里，最好是吃完所有的菜，这样女主人会很高兴，认为大家喜欢她做的菜。面对丰盛的宴席，主人会说“已经倾其所有来招待大家” 的话。对中西主人的餐桌话语进行推理，很容易得出：中国人遵循了“贬己尊人”的原则。而西方人强调效率和实用主义价值观，在交际中十分注重自身面子的需要。如在宴席上西方人不议论令人作呕之事，会千方百计采用含蓄文雅的词来替代toilet，如：“Where can I wash my hand?”、“I wonder if I could go somewhere.”、“ Can I add some powder?”等。另外，在西方国家不要问“吃饭了吗?”等我国习惯的问候语。“您吃饭了吗?”容易使人莫名其妙，甚至会出现误会。如在英国，你若问人吃饭没有，其含义是你有意请对方吃饭;这对于未婚男女，则表明你有意约会对方。
五、结语
世界上各种文化都是平等的。文化无优劣之分。应该避免用自己的文化、、价值观作为标准去衡量、评判而应采用一种客观的、宽容的态度对待异国文化;同时，又要避免盲目的追随、模仿异国文化，而应坚持自己的优秀文化传统。

中西审美差异及原因中国美学和西方美学是两种不同思想文化体系的美学。他们各有其不同的社会土壤和文化环境,各有其不同发展史,中西美学是最为古老、最具特色而至今最有影响和活力的两大美学理论体系。以孔子和老子为代表的中国传统美学是经验美学、伦理美学和社会美学。以柏拉图和亚里士多德为代表的西方美学是理性美学、宗教美学和心理美学。中西方在审美方式上、审美心理上和审美理想上存在着种种差异。一、在审美方式上中国古代在审美思维方式上是实用理性,“贵悟不贵解”②主张审美主体要进入“悟”的心理状态去体验美和创造美,要求审美主体在“心与物会”、“神与象交”、“情与景合”的浑然统一中,去体悟宇宙万物的生命意蕴和美的性质。因此,主体在审美观照中,只注重事物内在的规律性和一致性,对阴晴晦明、风霜雨雪、月落乌啼、水流花谢等种种自然现象,都不采取细致分析的态度,而是以心灵去冥和自然,畅我神思。西方古代在审美方式上是思辨理性,“贵解不贵悟”,强调理解、思辩,主张审美主体要注重理性自身的逻辑性、严密性和完整性。二、在审美心理上中国审美心理偏重于情感和理智的统一,偏重于内容的和谐。中国儒家美学将美看作是美和善的和谐结合,就是要在审美活动中用来束缚情感,从而将审美情感纳入特定的伦理轨道,让情在理智的约束下有限的活动,从而使先天的情感欲求符合后天的伦理规范。西方审美心理偏重于心灵与理智的统一,偏重于形式的和谐。西方传统美学将美看作是真与善的和谐统一,强调在审美活动中,要用灵魂束缚肉体,用理性压抑感情,认为“最高的美不是感官所感觉到的,而是要靠心灵才能见出的”。中国在审美体验中,往往以理节情,注重向内心和向无限的超越:渴望从有限中发现无限,所以中国人喜欢登高远眺,喜欢极目抒怀,强调澄怀观道,带有很强的主观色彩。西方更讲人的天才禀赋,而中国更重积学修身。中国讲“养气”,重“虚静”,协调内心,不致过度激烈。中国审美体验的最高范畴是“畅神”、“悦志悦神”,更重视内在美的人格修养。西方最高的美是上帝,是神,更重视非理性的外在美。三、在审美理想上中西方在审美理想上都以“和谐”为美的最高理想,然而不同的是:中国人对儒家的“中和之美”表示认同,从而侧重审美主体的心理属性；西方人对柏拉图的超验的和谐理想表示认同,从而侧重审美对象的物理属性。其实,无论在中国的心理结构还是在西方的物理结构的背后,都还隐藏着深刻的思想内容,这就是中国的“人人之和”和西方的“人神之和”。中国受孔孟儒家思想的影响,历来把协调人心、稳定社会看成是审美活动的最高理想。西方受柏拉图和亚里士多德美学思想的影响,强调只有当灵魂受到宗教的洗涤与净化之后,才可能透过物体和谐直观上帝的和谐,从而在精神上与上帝融为一体,这种最高的审美理想,就是人与神的和谐统一。在中国与西方审美文化剧烈碰撞之际,审美意识彼此相互融通之时,进行中西审美差异的比较,进而探索中西方人格的差异,不仅有助于我们了解西方的美学思想体系,而且也有助于我们反思自身,从而建立起既符合经验传统,又具有现代水平的马克思主义美学体系。中西审美差异产生的原因产生中西审美差异的原因要从中西不同民族的传统文化以及审美理想的发展演变来看。儒、道思想集中代表了汉文化不同于世界其它民族文化的基本特质。儒家美学的中心概念即是“中和之美”，强调以文权体制为中心的宇宙间的一切的普遍和谐，“中和”的宇宙是一个以现实政治和人伦社会为中心的整体和谐的宇宙，它作为儒家文化的理想是美的极致。儒家美学的最大贡献是为中国文人提供了一种普遍关怀一切存在的心灵，正是这种心灵决定了中国诗画中的那种“提神太虚”“散点透视”的空间构造和它的宇宙感，人生感。道家所尊崇的是天地万物的自然而然的生成之道。道家美学的贡献是为中国艺术提供了一种审美的境界，它的基本特征是“虚静”和“空灵”。庄子主张把自我同化于自然整体，最高的艺术境界是同于自然的一片无我而又充实的虚灵，一种“淡然无及而众美从之”的境界。在西方美学中，希腊文明向西方艺术提供了一种以神圣的形式为中心概念的美学价值，基督教文明则向西方艺术提供了一种以光和色彩为特征的美学价值，二者相互渗透和彼此共同构成西方美术在美术风格上的总体面貌。
