摘要

語言與文化有著極爲密切的關連，文化影響語言，而語言反映文化。本文以學際整合之理念，破除語言教育與社會學、文化人類學之藩籬。首先依據前輩學者上說，闡述語言與文化之關連，並論述外國文化在學習該外語、理解該外語過程中之重要。然後以：1、「文化是複雜的整體」(E.B.Tylor)。2、「社會具有生命」（二宮哲雄、Niklas、Luhman）。3、「文化研究必然是比較文化研究」（Mattei Dogan、中田光雄）等社會學、文化人類學之理論爲指標，檢討「外國語文學系」的「文化教科書」，並提出改善方法。期望能夠對於外國文化教科書之編纂注入新觀點，對於外國文化教學方法提供新的思考方向，並引導更多學者以本文作爲基礎，展開更廣泛更深入的相關探討，以收充實外國語文教育之效。

There is a very close connection between language and culture. Culture may influence languages and languages can be a reflection of culture. This study tries to eliminate the barriers among language education, sociology, and cultural anthropology, We first elucidate the connection between language and culture and the importance of foreign culture in learning and realizing the target foreign language on the basis of former theories, Then we examine the culture textbooks in foreign language departments and propose to improve them on the basis of the following theories.
1. Culture is a complicated integration.
2. The society is animate.
3. Culture studies must be comparative culture studies.
We hope to implant new viewpoints in compiling foreign culture textbooks and provide new ideologies in foreign culture teaching approaches and methods. Also. we expect more extensive and further studies and discussions based on this study for better foreign language teaching efficiency.
