Feasibility Trial Of Yuelu Academy's Application For World Heritage

In recent years,the protection and development of Cultural Heritage,cultural relics and historic sites have attracted more and more attention from all walks of life,and to be among the World Cultural Heritage is considered to be an important sign of the affirmation of the value of cultural relics and historic sites.It is not only beneficial to enhance the popularity of cultural relics and historic sites,to promote their protection and development,but also to enhance the cultural self-confidence and comprehensive influence of the countries where they are located.Academy(??)is an important part of Chinese ancient education system with its own characteristics,and it is also an important carrier of Chinese traditional culture and scholarship.Yuelu Academy,as the first of the four major academies in ancient China,not only has its architecture preserved intact,but also its academic research and teaching activities continue until the present day.Which is the most powerful competitor to declare the world cultural heritage on hehalf of the Chinese Academy.The revival of China's outstanding traditional culture,supported by the government and all sectors of society,has provided a valuable opportunity for the Yuelu Academy to apply for World Heritage Status.The similar experience of applying for cultural heritage at home and abroad provides a good reference for the Yuelu Academy to apply for World Heritage.Most of the existing ancient buildings of Yuelu Academy were built in the Ming and Qing dynasties.The main buildings of Yuelu Academy,such as Lecture Hall,Imperial Study Hall,Confucian Temple and Study Hall,maintain the traditional layout and constitute a complete architectural system of the academy,It also has both historical reference value and artistic aesthetic value,Which is the authentic foundation(???)of the Yuelu Academy's application for World Heritage.In the course of more than one thousand years,Yuelu Academy,As a place of strategic of neo-confucianism,Confucian classics and the base of Hu-xiang School,has an important position in the history of Chinese culture.Many outstanding figures who werecultured by Yuelu Academy or who had been active in Yuelu Academy had great influence on academic,cultural and political fields.There is no doubt about the universal value of Yuelu Academy as a cultural heritage.To sum up,the application of the Yuelu Academy has both historical basis and practical feasibility.However,there are also many difficulties,such as not yet entered the reserve list,the newly increased number of World Heritage sites each year is limited and competitive,limited size and so on.Therefore,the joint application with other projects is a more realistic approach.At present,the feasible joint application(????)schemes include the joint application of Chinese Confucian Academy and Confucian Architecture(????????),the joint application of Yuelu Academy and Yuelu Mountain as part of the Nanyue project(????),the joint application of international cooperation(????)and the joint application of Korean and other academies,etc.
