Summary: | A cultural image is a kind of cultural symbol and cognitive schema, which can make the national wisdom and historical memory get together. From the view of literary anthropology, the article applies quadruple-evidence approaches to interpret cultural images of rainbow multi-dimensionally and systematically in the field of the great tradition. Meanwhile, in order to break through the concealment and misleadingness of ancient documentary records, we need rely on the multi-ethnic living ethnography from generation to generation and jade Huang (玉璜, semi-annular jade pendant) narrative in the form of hierophany. So we can find that the rainbow represents luckiness, a bumper harvest, and sexual intercourse. Moreover, we conclude that faith in rainbow culture in ancient times is the headstream of faith in dragon culture that rooted in the heart of all Chinese. Hence, quadruple-evidence approaches play more significant roles in the reconstruction and rebuilding of Chinese great tradition’s view of culture than before. |
