THE CULTURAL VALUE OF THE INFANT-RAISING ROOM SCENE IN HUNAN DURING THE QING DYNASTY FROM A HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE

Abstract

From a historical point of view, the Infant-Raising Room in Hunan during the Qing Dynasty has an important cultural value. This cultural value can only really play a positive role under specific conditions. This paper utilizes the historical perspective and combines the “scene theory” of the New Chicago School to provide a new theoretical direction for studying the cultural value of the Infant-Raising Rooms in Hunan during the Qing Dynasty, starting from the space's symbolic significance and value orientation. Through the analysis and argumentation of the historical facts of the infant-raising room in Hunan Prefecture in the Qing Dynasty, this paper reveals that the local authenticity of the cultural connotation of the infant-raising room needs to be excavated in depth from multiple perspectives. It emphasizes the synergy and localization of different cultural elements to solve the problem of precise matching between comfortable facilities and the needs of a good life.
