论文化人类学视野下的乡土文艺观

The Idea of Local Literature and Art with the Viewpoint of Culture Anthropology

乡土文艺已经成为当代文化变迁与文化守成的现代化进程中,世界各民族所面临的文化诀择与生存选择的叙事符号。我国的乡土文艺也在这种文化复兴的时代潮流中成为当下文学艺术界研究的一个热点问题,其普遍把地方色彩、风俗人情、农村农民等题材或风格特征视为乡土文艺的本质特征,从而以文艺的题材、风格、表现形式等形式特征,来取代乡土社会的文化形态特征,这样研究和界定乡土文化,势必背离了乡土文艺的文化本质。本文拟从文化人类学的范畴内涵来界定乡土文艺的内容与特征,为当下的乡土文艺研究提供学理建构的理论平台。

In the course of modernization of contemporary cultural changes and cultural conservatism,the local literature and art has become narrative symbols of the cultural choice and survival selection faced by all nations.In this cultural renaissance trend,local literature and art in China inevitably becomes a hot research issue.Studies focus on local features,customs,and rural farmers as research objects.Generally,they attempts to demonstrate the locality through literary theme and style as the shape of local endoplasmic,and to replace the culture symbol of local characteristics with formal features of literature and art,resulting in a departure from the cultural essence of the local literature and art.This paper defines the connotation and characteristics of local literature and art from the cultural anthropology category,in hope to provide a theoretical construction platform for current local literary studies.
