摘 要
谈及西方吸血鬼和中国的僵尸形象时，年龄大的人们常常觉得他们恐怖吓人，与此相反，年轻一代表示出感兴趣和好奇。众所周知，中国僵尸形象与西方吸血鬼形象在中西文化中分别有着悠久的历史，在艺术著作中各自都表现出一道独特亮丽的风景线。虽然两者文化在许多方面有着相似点，但在现代的发展近况中却各不相同。
吸血鬼变成了一个热门词，英语论文范文，其文化在全世界范围内广泛传播, 这使它成为流行文化中不可缺少的一部分。中国僵尸文化也有自身的特点，特别是80年代僵尸电影的繁荣，但那段时期过后，英语论文题目，僵尸文化开始慢慢从人们的视野中消失。因此，越来越多的国内外探讨把注意力放在吸血鬼的形象改变及内涵的略论上，或者以香港80年代僵尸电影的特点为切入点进行略论。当前很少学者把西方吸血鬼文化与中国僵尸文化差异当作主题探讨，这就为本篇论文的撰写提供了可行性。
本文通过多个角度略论对比中西两种特殊文化的差异，目的在于引发人们对当代中国特色文化的发展近况产生思考，同时，也有助于学会略论掌握对两种不同地区文化进行对比的措施。
