Today, cultures around the world are facing the tests and challenges of globalization. As a great nation with a five-thousand-year history, we must also ponder how to respond to the strong impact of foreign cultures while preserving and promoting the vitality of our indigenous culture, ensuring that our national spirit remains youthful and dynamic. Emerson's works can offer us some insights and answers.
