关于民俗志书写的几点思考

Some Considerations about Writing Folklore Ethnography

随着民俗学研究范式的转变,民俗志书写逐渐成为民俗学的基本研究方式之一。然而,当前民俗志书写中存在诸多问题与不足:书写样式"八股化",书写中看不到"人"的在场,没有"情境"的呈现,弃用生动的"民俗话语",缺乏"地方感"。一篇成功的民俗志应该以深度描述、深度解释为基础,力求整体性叙事,具有反思精神,讲究生动的写作风格,从而立体化地呈现出民俗生活的本质和意义。

With the transformation of folklore research paradigm,the writing of folklore ethnography gradually become one of the basic methods of ethnic study.However,current folklore writing exists many problems and deficiencies： writing style is rather rigid,there is no ‘person ’ presented,no situation described,no vivid ‘folk discourse’,lack of ‘local sense’,and so on.The article pointed out that a successful folklore writing should take deep description,deep interpretation as its foundation,strive to wholeness narration,have the reflective spirit,seek for vivid style of writing so as to vividly and stereoscopically present the folk life essence and significance.
