当代村落民俗志书写中学者与民众的视域融合

Fusion of Horizons of Scholars and the Folk in Contemporary Writing of Village Minsuzhi

近年来兴起的村落民俗志书写热潮,体现出我国乡村社会发展过程中文化自觉意识的增强,但在民众自发行动与政府合理施政之间,迫切需要搭建公共话语平台。当代学者应继承古代知识精英"为民请命""以礼化俗"等所表征的神圣传统,通过与民众的视域融合,促进对村落民俗传统的准确认知与表达,赋予村落民俗志书写以多层级的文化意义,助推当代乡村振兴战略,发挥对国家和地方社会发展的葆育作用。这种实验式村落民俗志书写,还应注意在深描之中提炼理论话语,发掘中国文化的民间表达形式与传承机制,以小见大地阐述中国社会的人文传统、基本国情与发展道路。

The writing boom of village minsuzhiin recent years shows the enhancement of cultural self-awareness in the process of rural social development in China.However,between the spontaneous actions of the folk and the rational administrations of the government,there is an urgent need to build a public discourse platform.Contemporary scholars should inherit ancient intellectual elites’ sacred tradition represented by "plead for people"and"make etiquette to change customs",to promote the accurate recognition and expression of rural folk tradition,give the writing of village minsuzhi multi-level cultural significance,forward the strategy of revitalizing contemporary villages,and exert the conserving role for the development of the state and local society through fusing horizon with the folk.This kind of experimental village minsuzhi writing should also pay attention to the refining of theoretical discourse in thick description,explore the local expression form and inheritance mechanism of Chinese culture,and interpret the big picture of the humanistic tradition,basic national conditions and developing path of Chinese society in detail.
