Investigation into the Cultural Dissemination of Zhenyi Academy through the Utilization of Cultural and Tourism Integration as a Vehicle

Abstract

As China ushers in a new era, there is a continuous improvement in people's spiritual and cultural lives, drawing societal attention to the role of cultural dissemination and integration. The development of stele culture has similarly garnered increasing focus. In the context of the ongoing deepening of Chinese culture, accelerating the orderly dissemination of culture holds immense significance in bolstering the influence of traditional Chinese culture. Academies serve as crucial hubs for contemporary individuals to experience traditional culture and as spaces for perpetuating the excellent traditional culture of the Chinese nation. The dissemination of academy culture aids in transforming these academies into effective spaces for preserving civilization, fostering cultural innovation, and disseminating cultural values in the new era, thereby enriching people's intellectual and cultural landscapes, inspiring introspection, and achieving spiritual enlightenment. This article takes stele culture as its starting point and uses Wenzhou's iconic cultural representative, Zhenyi Academy, as an exemplar to elucidate the historical evolution and the cultural connotations embedded within its stele inscriptions. It further delves into the contemporary value and advantages of disseminating stele culture within the academy.
