白族社会“绕三灵”中性的阈限

The Sexual Limen in the Rao San Ling of the Bai Nationality

本文在田野调查的基础上,围绕白族社会中的"绕三灵"盛会,讨论洱海地区白族社会朝圣仪式过程中性的阈限。认为白族社会绕三灵朝圣的过程,表现出通过仪式所具有的阈限阶段的特征,性的行为也在朝圣的仪式过程处于阈限的状态,突破了白族社会在日常生活中建立起来的人与神的等级界限以及婚内性与婚外性的界限。白族社会中性的"阈限"机制表现出性的非节制特点,是白族在特定历史过程中建构出来的行为逻辑。白族社会绕三灵中性的阈限为人类社会文化中宗教与性的组织机制提供了独特的案例。
