BEIJING, May 20 (Xinhua) — The book “Open Course on Chinese Culture,” a thematic volume on the inheritance and development of culture from the “Hundred Forums on Core Values” series, was recently published by the People’s Publishing House and is now available nationwide. It was compiled under the joint auspices of the Publicity Department’s Bureau of Public Education and Guangming Daily.

This book is grounded in the “Centennial Forum on Core Values” series, which focuses on the inheritance and development of Chinese culture. It brings together leading domestic scholars and experts, selecting iconic elements of Chinese civilization—such as Hongshan, Liangzhu, Erlitou, the Grand Canal, Dunhuang, Yungang, the Forbidden City, and classical Chinese texts—and, with a broad and inclusive civilizational perspective, vivid historical artifacts and documents, and clear yet profound cultural interpretations, guides readers to explore in depth the multifaceted yet unified trajectory of Chinese civilization. Through this journey, readers can appreciate the distinctive character of Chinese civilization—its commitment to upholding fundamental principles while embracing innovation, and its openness and inclusiveness—and come to understand the intellectual, moral, and spiritual power embedded in the outstanding values of the Chinese nation.

This book excels in its scholarly rigor, readability, and intellectual depth, featuring a rich array of illustrations and videos and profound cultural insights. It presents nearly 260 carefully selected photographs of real-world sites and cultural relics, along with links to nearly 50 compelling videos and key historical documents, enabling readers to engage more intimately with Chinese history and appreciate the enduring flow of its cultural heritage. By fostering resonance and shared values among the public, it helps reinforce socialist core values within the broader context of cultural inheritance and development, and will undoubtedly play a positive role in empowering cadres and the general public to strengthen their confidence in history and culture and to actively contribute to the building of a modern Chinese civilization.
