汉字文化学的科学定位--读王宁等《汉字与文化丛书·总序》

汉字文化学是以汉字为研究对象的 ,而且是以汉字形体结构作为根本依据的 ,所以它应该属于汉字学的一个分支。汉字学与语言学既不是同一的学科 ,彼此也没有从属关系 ,因而汉字文化学与语言文化学也不应该有从属关系

Position the Cultural Research of Chinese Character Scientifically

As its object is Chinese character, and its foundation is the structure of Chinese character, so the cultural Research of Chinese character must be regard as a embranchment of Chinese graphitic. Chinese graphitic and linguistic are not the same subject. They would never be appurtenants to each other. Hence the cultural research of Chinese character and the cultural research of Language would never include each other too.
