The comparative study of Long and dragon_英语毕业论文
The comparative study of Long and dragon
Introduction
Chinese people like talking about “Long”, and often consider themselves as “the descendants of the Long”. But if we talk to our friends from western countries that this year is “the year of dragon”, they will be surprised, even feel uneasy. The reason is that the legendary Long, found in the ancient folklore of many cultures, not only occupies a special position in Chinese mytheology, but also is deeply rooted in the country’s culture with a very different symbolic meaning, and it is not the dragon in western people’s opinion.

What is the detailed difference between “Long” in Chinese and “dragon” in English in view of culture? Is there any change now? These questions make a focus of the discussion in this essay through exploring the connotative meaning of the word “Long” and “Dragon”.
