consider the interactive development of science， technology and social culture， deeply consider

the construction basis and historical value of printing culture and publishing culture， and

explore the contemporary significance of the two cultures. It is found that printing culture is the

crystallization of the interaction between printing reproduction technology and social culture for

thousands of years， and it is the ideological basis for the birth of publishing. Publishing culture

is the foundation and core of human knowledge production and cultural inheritance. It leads

publishing to be embedded in knowledge production and has a profound impact on human

knowledge activities. The two cultures endow the publishing system with the natural endowment of

storing， standardizing production and stably spreading knowledge， and anchor the publishing in

the era of artificial intelligence in the field of knowledge production and knowledge service.
