中国地方道教仪式学术史回顾与前瞻

Retrospect and Prospect:Studies on Local Taoist Rituals in China’s History

百余年来,经过中外学者的不懈努力,中国地方道教仪式研究在研究资料、研究方法、研究理论等方面均有所建树,大致呈现出仪式搜集整理、醮仪本体研究、打醮与地方社会研究、信仰实践研究等多种路径。展望今后,地方道教仪式的研究应返归本体,从田野现场与纵深历史语境中考察仪式的具体实践,尤要加强少数民族道教仪式研究、不同地域道教仪式比较研究、民间道教经籍搜集整理研究、仪式专家群体研究等基础性工作。

For more than a hundred years,with the unremitting efforts of Chinese and foreign scholars,the research on local Taoist rituals in China has made some achievements in research materials,research methods,research theories,etc.,and it roughly shows several research paths,such as ritual collection and arrangement,the noumenon of the Jiao Festival,the Jiao Festival and local society,and folk religious practice.Looking forward to the future,the research of local Taoist rituals should return to the noumenon,and the concrete practice of rituals should be examined from the field and historical contexts.In particular,it is necessary to strengthen the basic work,such as the research of Taoist rituals of ethnic minorities,the comparative research of Taoist rituals in different regions,the collection and research of folk Taoist scriptures,and the research of expert groups of rituals.
