Abstract

Chinese paper-cut has thousand years of history. It is belongs to folk symbol and is the result of symbolic thought which is expressing Chinese tradition and collective inner mentality. Chinese paper-cut act as expressing most Chinese people’s same feeling and wish. and also act as the sign of national consciousness and succession of nation. I'd like to explore the public of China's appreciation of beauty according to semeiology theory. Which is based on finding out the beauty of combination and the combination has it's own meaning and expression. Because semeiology is the learning of image's meaning and expression based on human being's whole thinking process and knowledge hierarchy. In this thesis, I will crystallize the symbolic meaning of Chinese paper-cut which is classified by distinction of Peirse’s symbol type. According to Peirse’s semiotic theory, Chinese people is familiar with generalized paper-cut's symbolistic symbol and often used picture character paper-cut and feel amiably. They can find out familiar explanation of the object and know well about the representation of that paper-cut. This study divided the way of paper-cut's expression into three kind based on Bense's theory. Which are sign’s adjunction, combination, and replacement. And analysed it with example. We can approach the meaning and expression of Chinese paper-cut's formation and combination with semeiology. With analysing the example, we can know about what Chinese want and wish. We also can find out that Chinese paper-cut brings times thought and sensibility and it is the expression of the sight of the public of Chinese. And I think this thesis analysed Chinese paper-cut's meaning and expression based on Peirse and Bense's semeiology theory. So that Chinese paper-cut's artistry and the public appreciation of the beauty can be highly valued.
