湘黔桂边区少数民族稻俗与日本稻俗的比较研究

Comparative Study on the Rice Culture between Japanese and the Ethnic Minorities in the Border Regions of Hunan,Guizhou and Guangxi Provinces

湘黔桂交界之地少数民族稻作民俗与日本稻作民俗文化共性高,两国稻作民族民间信仰具有认祖功能、标志功能和平安心理的文化特征。同时还具有集体性、地域性、历史性、传承性和规范性。日本稻作民俗无不打上湘黔桂交界之地稻作民俗的文化烙印。源于三省交界的南方水上丝绸之路,可能是中国稻作文化最早传播到日本的主要通道之一,而湘黔桂交界之地可能是这条通道的起点。

The folk belief of the both two rice nationalities is culturally characterized by ancestor recognition, function of symbol and psychology of peace. Meanwhile it has the collective, regional, historical, inheriting and standard features. The Japanese rice culture bears the cultural mark of those prevailing in the border regions of Hunan, Guizhou and Guangxi provinces.
