【摘要】 20世纪以来,西方社会的物质资料需求在很大程度上得到满足的同时,人本主义精神、技术理性批判、大众文化批判、日常生活批判等关注文化和意识形态的理论思潮成为显学。宗教作为西方精神发展所依赖的基础之一,与文化密不可离,要探究和解决现代文化危机,宗教的维度不可或缺。蒂里希是20世纪横跨哲学与神学并在两个领域都做出突出贡献的思想家,他高度重视宗教与文化的关系,以“终极关怀”为旨趣的宗教文化观应答了现代人的生存境遇和当代文化的精神困境,其宗教哲学思想内容丰富、见解深刻,具有重要的理论价值和现实意义本文试图从文化与宗教关系的基本理论入手,系统分析蒂里希的宗教文化关系的相关理论和方法,探求现代文化危机的根源,进而全面地考察其思想的理论价值和现实意义,突出体现蒂里希文化理论解决现代文化危机问题的独特意义。笔者认为蒂里希运用关联法提出了宗教文化观,就其理论价值而言,一方面,在对宗教与文化二者关系的分析中,凸现了宗教的本体意义;另一方面,他将宗教界定为“终极关怀”的理论,使文化的各个领域找到了统一的理论根基。就其现实意义而言,为西方社会摆脱文化危机提供了神学出路。更多还原

【Abstract】 Since the 20th century, human beings’material needs have been satisfied to a considerable extent. More problems centered on spiritual and cultural aspects, and more and more modern cultural crisis has become the focus of people’s concern. Therefore, various theoretical ideas such as humanism,critique of technological reason,critique of mass culture,critique of daily life pay close attention to the study on culture and ideology. As one of the basis on which western spiritual development depends, religion is inseparable from culture. In order to probe into and resolve modern cultural crisis, religion should be involved as an indispensable dimension. Tillich is a thinker who made outstanding contributions to both philosophical and theological areas in the 20th century. He attaches great importance to the relationship between religion and culture. His religious cultural perspective aiming at“ultimate concern”addresses the matters of modern people’s survival circumstance and modern culture’s spiritual plight. The religious philosophy is rich in content and deep in thought, which has important theoretical value and practical significance.Beginning with the basic theory of relationship between culture and religion, this paper attempts to analyze relevant theories and methods of Tillich’s religious and cultural relations, explore the causes of modern culture crisis, so as to study its theoretical value and practical significance, and embody particular significance of Tillich’s cultural theory dealing with modern culture crisis.This paper consists of four parts: The first part mainly reviews and explores the background and the theoretical origins of Tillich’s religious cultural perspective.The second part elaborates Tillich’s religious cultural perspective in a systematic way. First of all, some important concepts of Tillich’s thought about God, religion, culture and ultimate concern are clarified. Then, a detailed analysis of Tillich’s cultural stratification theory is conducted. Finally, it is pointed out that the disconnection of cultural surface and bottom layer causes the crisis of western culture. The third part analyzes Tillich’s methodology of religious cultural perspective, namely the interrelated method. The fourth part mainly discusses the theoretical value and limitations of Tillich’s religious cultural perspective.Tillich put religious cultural perspective forward in the interrelated method. On the one hand, in the relationship between religion and culture analysis, he pay more attention to the religious Ontology ; the other hand, he defined religion as "ultimate concern" theory, so made all areas of culture to find a unified theory of the foundation. In significance, from culture to Western society provides the theological way out of crisis.更多还原
