電影《刮痧》

電影《刮痧》自上映以來(lái)一直好評(píng)如潮，很大的原因是，該影片表現(xiàn)出的中美文化差異和沖突引人深思。許大同的老父親為孫子丹尼斯刮痧，結(jié)果許大同被美國(guó)兒童福利院的官員指控虐待兒童。因?yàn)楣勿疬@件事，許家差點(diǎn)家破人亡。在第一次聽(tīng)證會(huì)上，當(dāng)許大同第一次說(shuō)出“刮痧”“經(jīng)”“氣”等詞的時(shí)候，法官和在場(chǎng)所有美國(guó)人都認(rèn)為他在胡說(shuō)。Case

Study

美國(guó)人認(rèn)為，把兒童的背部弄得傷痕累累，這不是虐童是什么。在中國(guó)，“刮痧”是一種傳統(tǒng)的中醫(yī)療法，是十分正常的事情。這就是問(wèn)題所在，因?yàn)榇嬖谖幕拿c(diǎn)和誤區(qū)，所以大家都不能很好地了解對(duì)方，認(rèn)識(shí)對(duì)方。雙方各執(zhí)一詞，誤會(huì)越來(lái)越大。所幸許大同的老板桑蘭最后去了一趟中國(guó)，親身體驗(yàn)了一回刮痧，才消除這個(gè)巨大的文化誤會(huì)，并化解文化沖突。Case

Study

分析點(diǎn)評(píng)

中國(guó)和西方的醫(yī)學(xué)理念存在差異。中國(guó)傳統(tǒng)醫(yī)學(xué)將人看成一個(gè)整體，刮痧作為一種傳統(tǒng)的經(jīng)絡(luò)治病方法早已被東方文化所接受。西方醫(yī)學(xué)將人體分割成運(yùn)動(dòng)、神經(jīng)、消化等幾大系統(tǒng)，不認(rèn)可中醫(yī)經(jīng)絡(luò)的存在。因此，在跨文化交際中，我們要更好地了解其他國(guó)家和其他民族的文化，不誤解，不扭曲，給予充分的尊重。Translation
