An Analysis of the Integration of Family and Nation in “Great China” from the Perspective of Conceptual Integration Theory

This study employs Conceptual Integration Theory as its theoretical framework, supplemented by optimization principles and model types. It focuses on the characteristic nation-family construction elements within the lyrics of “Great China”, conducting an integrated analysis of its conceptual bundles to reveal the philosophical conception of “nation-family unity”within mainstream musical works. Findings indicate that “Great China” intertwines “family” and “nation” through themes of ethnicity, destiny, growth, and emotion, demonstrating the powerful ideological shaping function of mainstream works in the contemporary era. The family-nation perspective permeating such works not only reflects ancient wisdom but also lays the foundation for the unity and collective resolve of the Chinese nation today, further propelling the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
