古希腊哲学是古代希腊文化的重要组成部分,属于古代地中海文化,而不是后来才形成的“西方文化”和“欧洲文化”。由于近代西方文化以“文艺复兴”的形态出现,资本主义的商品经济和城市自治与古希腊以雅典为代表的工商经济和城邦民主制的近似关系,希腊文化遗产在西欧迅速现代化,从而也造成一种假象,似乎古希腊文化也属于西方文化范畴。从全球化时代跨文化视野考量,古代文化遗产都是世界性的。文化研究者应持公共伦理观念和胸怀是:客观和全面地介绍自己所在国家或地域的文化,同时尊重和学习他域的文化。古希腊哲学所展现的理论思维能力和思维方法、在分析和论证中所体现的平等的对话方式以及执着追求真理的精神,对于当今中国的文化建设和对外文化交流仍有其现代意义。 Ancient Greek philosophy is an important part of ancient Greek culture, belonging to the ancient Mediterranean culture, rather than later formed “Western culture” and “European culture.” Due to the appearance of modern Western culture in the form of “Renaissance”, the capitalist commodity economy and urban autonomy are closely related to the close relationship between business and industry and the city-state democracy represented by Athens in ancient Greece. The Greek cultural heritage is rapidly modernized in Western Europe, Also created an illusion, it seems that ancient Greek culture also belongs to the category of Western culture. From the cross-cultural perspective of globalization, ancient cultural heritage is worldwide. Cultural researchers should hold the view of public ethics and their minds as objectively and comprehensively introducing the culture of their own country or region while respecting and learning the culture of other countries. The theoretical thinking ability and thinking method demonstrated by ancient Greek philosophy, the equal dialogue mode demonstrated in analysis and demonstration as well as the spirit of persistent pursuit of truth still have modern significance for the cultural construction and foreign cultural exchange in China today.
