文／杜瑋 常檣

靜安癡迷于中國文化，特別是中國的民間文化。Jan Zywczok is obsessed with Chinese culture,especially Chinese folk culture.

百聞不如一見

“淘寶粉絲一號就是我”

2021年10月，靜安在山東曲阜參加“漢學青年學者研習營”活動并獲結業證書。In October 2021,Jan Zywczok participated in the “Sinology Young Scholars Training Camp” in Qufu,Shandong Province and received a certificate of completion.

無用之用，方為大用

不辭長作濟南人

靜安目前身在上海，便利的生活和快樂的工作，讓他感到很是滿足。Jan Zywczok now lives in Shanghai,where he is content with his convenient life and pleasant work.

談到最喜歡的山東城市，他脫口而出——濟南！他的理由是：“這座城市真的太合我口味，有山有水，啥都不缺，我實在想不出來有什么感到不滿意的地方。”說完這些略顯絕對的話，他還幽默地補充道：“如果有長期定居山東的機會，恐怕我拒絕不了。好像唯一欠缺的就是，那里沒有人招聘我！”

文化多樣才寶貴

Jan ?ywczok,a young sinologist from Poland,is a “China Hand” obsessed with Chinese culture,especially Chinese folk culture.

Jan ?ywczok said that Chinese culture enjoyed great popularity in Poland.Every time he returned home,he had to answer a string of questions raised by his relatives and friends,which were even not common knowledge in his view.On account of this,he believes that it is his duty and mission to publicize China,especially Chinese culture in such a minority language country as Poland.

Jan ?ywczok said that after coming to China,he participated in many cultural activities,but most activities were designed for foreigners to experience Chinese culture,e.g.making Zongzi,making dumplings,singing the Peking Opera,and trying calligraphy.However,he prefers to naturally experience traditional Chinese culture.

Jan ?ywczok is greatly impressed with the hometown of Confucius and Mencius,Shandong.“I always felt happy there.There werefriendly people,delicious food,splendid scenery,and rich history.It seemed that lots of celebrities had a connection with Shandong.Such famous figures as Lu Ban,Confucius and Mencius were widely known.We could not fully understand their thoughts if we do not learn about the environment that nurtured them.”

Jan ?ywczok firmly believed,“Humans exist as a community.Sometimes,there should be no distinction between ‘our country’ and‘foreign countries’.Humans need to work together.This is mainly focused on economic and scientific &technological development.On the other hand,diversity is precious in terms of culture.”

To introduce China and Chinese culture to Poland,Jan ?ywczok has made a future plan to be a good translator.He has planned to be a student first,“striving to understand the extensive and profound cultures of the two countries”;then to be a translator,“making a contribution to the friendly relations between the two countries”.
