创世神话英雄传说与事功记忆——华夏创世叙事与人本主体性的确立

English Abstract:This appendix provides a complete textual demonstration of the "embedded subjectivity" thesis advanced in Chapter One of the General Outline. Through a systematic reading of Chinese creation myths, heroic legends, and the genealogies of sage-kings, it demonstrates that Chinese civilization established human subjectivity at its very origins—the universe is "humanized," humanity is "manufactured," and the value of the human person lies in the complete unity of "capability + will + practical achievement," with the ultimate direction of the community being the establishment of order in the human world. The appendix includes a brief comparative survey of creation narratives from four major civilizations, illustrating the unique position of the Chinese "humanistic narrative" within the global civilizational spectrum. Throughout the text, a methodological principle is consistently applied: textual facts are strictly distinguished from theoretical interpretation—mythological texts provide the imagery, while political-philosophical interpretation translates these images into theoretical propositions, with the boundary between the two clearly marked in each instance. Keywords:Creation Myths; Humanistic Narrative; Embedded Subjectivity; Pangu; Nüwa; Kuafu; Jingwei; Houyi; Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors; Four Great Civilizations; Textual Fact and Theoretical Interpretation.

Through a systematic reading of Chinese creation myths, heroic legends, and the genealogies of sage-kings, it demonstrates that Chinese civilization established human subjectivity at its very origins—the universe is "humanized," humanity is "manufactured," and the value of the human person lies in the complete unity of "capability + will + practical achievement," with the ultimate direction of the community being the establishment of order in the human world. The appendix includes a brief comparative survey of creation narratives from four major civilizations, illustrating the unique position of the Chinese "humanistic narrative" within the global civilizational spectrum.
