Lesson 4
A Tribute to Maternal Devotion:
Exploring Motherhood in Chinese Culture
班级： 姓名： 小组号：
The idea of a mother’s selfless love is a repeated theme in Chinese literature, especially the ancient poems. One of the most famous one is written by Meng Jiao, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, whose representative work, “Song of the Parting Son”, is still a must on the curriculum for Chinese teenagers.
Meanwhile, there are many stories and fables of great mothers throughout the Chinese history. For instance, nearly every Chinese child has heard about Mencius’mother who moved homes three times in order to provide the best living conditions and education for her son,who grew up to become a great Chinese philosopher known by the Chinese as the “second sage”, coming after Confucius.
In recent years, there have been occasional debates over whether or not China should have its own version of Mother’s Day. Some argue that the second day of the fourth lunar month of a year, which is marked as the birthday of Mencius’ mother should be designated as the Chinese Mother’s Day.
However, there are different voices as well. Many say it is too narrow-minded as limited to reject such an exported festival like Mother’s Day. “Respect and love for parents can have various forms and ways of expression, which is far more profound than what a festival could express,” argued by opponents. It is the love that matters, not the festival itself.
