Linguistic culturology belongs to the linguistic field between linguistics and culturology, a comprehensive discipline that studies mutual relationship and interaction of language and culture in using language process. The development of linguistic culturology can be divided into three periods. The first period is the gestation years of the discipline development in which the works of Humboldt, Benveniste, Bojiepuniya, Sapir and others laid the premise of the discipline development. The second period is the formative years as an independent discipline. In the1990s, the Moscow idiom school led by Chik lee (Teлйя) published a series of books, and then Stepanov, Maslova and other scholars’ writings appeared. Chik lee made huge contribution to the discipline establishment as a serious discipline. The dynamic development of science shows us the arrival of the third period. In the period, the dynamic performance of linguistic culturology is interdisciplinarily studied. The interdisciplinarity and comprehensiveness of linguistic culturology determine the complexity of its research object and scope, and the multidimensional nature of research point of view. Since the discipline establishment, five genres, four schools and seven research directions so far have appeared. While scholars find available relying on the theoretical basis, it does not mean that linguistic culturology has established the basis of its own ontology and epistemology, and the methodological research of linguistic culturology still appears to be very weak. From the1990s to the present, China has held a dozen of linguistic culturology seminar. A number of articles seen in academic journals and more than ten monographs available can be described as fruitful, but they can not support the creation of linguistic culturology system.With the expansion and updating of research perspective, the new trend in the development of linguistic culturology is to begin the language analysis with synergy method. Since its advent in1977, the synergy theory as the research methodology of different properties of complex systems self-organizing process is widely used in various fields of academic knowledge research. Language is a complex, dynamic and self-organizing system, and its internal meaning space is the object of linguistic culturology studies, including the image world generated by language personality along with meaning and value. To reveal the evolution of complex linguistic culturology system and the value cognitive characteristics of total-phase self-organization mechanism, the use of synergy theory is imperative.This paper attempts to use synergy theory to study the nonlinear process of perception, memory and creative thinking in the meaning space of linguistic culturology. The research object is the language phenomenon associated with meaning space with national cultural characteristics, including poetry, idioms, proverbs, slang and the formation of discourse. More analysis will be done on the meaning generating process of indirectly derived idiom, because it not only stores the plain meanings of national culture phenomenon, but also presents the synergistic unity of thinking, consciousness, language and speech, reflecting the creative ideal composition of meaning space and emotional evaluation. As an important part of meaning space, language symbol system can guarantee the heuristic dynamic development of meaning space, so it is conducive to further interpretation of the symbolic mechanisms of language significance and cultural meanings. Therefore, it is also one of this study’s focus. Through research, this article will explain the sudden qualitative leap in the overall structure of language and culture, as well as the impromptu ordered object of language and culture, and reveal the implicit mechanisms of cultural event correlation and the formation of cultural speech act and creative thinking. The dissipation, branch, attract principles of synergy theory will be used to analyze the synergisic mechanisms of meaning space, and reveal the relationship between conditional and open components in cultural cognitive process, as well as the selection mechanisms closely associated with value meaning orientation within the national cultural space. This article will also reveal that language symbol is an important means of the formation of cultural meaning space as a national culture community, and the formation of symbolic meanings is the crystallization of synergies of national language and culture. In today’s scientific development, the integrated approach is very realistic in the framework of non-linear thinking, so this article attempts to explain rich ethnic connotation implied in the language by synergy theory, try to use a new perspective to look at the relationship between language and culture with synergy theory to study cultural facts at language level, and lay language and culture in an open, non-linear and self-organization space, do the dialogue with the past, present and future, and try to contribute to the Construction of linguistic culturology system as a whole.
