Abstract

Chinese export porcelain was a great wonder in the long history of the world. During Ming and Qing dynasty, it was exported in large quantity beyond China, which led to a taste for Chinese designs and made different cultures encountered, exchanged and integrated. At the same time, Chinese export porcelain actively influenced passively recipient foreign consumers, which made the world civilization be promoted. The utensils are used to convey Daoism. While spreading Chinese culture, Chinese export porcelain carried the world's religious culture such as Christian culture, Islamic culture, Buddhist culture and Chinese local Taoist culture, bursting with colorful light. By collecting a large number of images of the Chinese export porcelain in religious culture during Ming and Qing dynasty, this article uses historical research method and the method of anthropology to make a specific and comprehensive analysis of the religious culture on exported porcelain so as to reappear the splendid global history. This article also elaborated on the design semantics, acceptance, and innovative development of religious culture on exported porcelains during the Ming and Qing Dynasties under the environment of the source language and target languages in China and beyond China. This article also analyzes the transportation routes and specific loading methods of porcelains during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, which better reflects the movement of Chinese Ceramics and its appropriation in world history. The methods of iconology are used in this article and the narrative stories on porcelains are analyzed. Chinese exported porcelain is functional and its spiritual enlightenment is appreciated by human-beings. The world civilization, human-being’s wisdom, spiritual connotation, communication integration and mutual development of all the world’s nations are witnessed by Chinese export porcelains in Ming and Qing Dynasties.
