中西方传说有许多有趣共同点,比如都有最先使用火的神话人物,然而其中的意味却不尽相同。西方神话更多地中将神的本身作为信仰的核心,而在中国,大多以先贤故事为核心。研究这一差异所引起的结果,能更好地梳理神话故事背后东西方文化和民族理念的不同。 There are many interesting things in common between Chinese and Western legends, such as the mythical creatures that first used fire, but the meanings are different. In Western mythology, God uses God itself more as the core of faith. In China, most of them are based on the stories of the sages. Studying the result of this difference can better sort out the differences between East-West culture and national ideas behind myths.
