族群文化记忆的再现——试谈史诗写本《苗族古歌》中的民俗文化描述

The Representation of Ethnic Cultural Memory: Discussing the Description of Folk Culture in the Epic of “Hmong Ancient Songs”

史诗《苗族古歌》是一种古老的民间叙事诗,也是一种活态的民间文学。作为写本的《苗族古歌》是某一时空的产物,是族群文化记忆的再现,饱含着挥之不去的民俗文化,具备民族志特征。不过,呈现在史诗写本中饱含着民族志信息的民俗文化既有客观真实的一面,又有时代性和个人性烙印,其价值有待进一步探究。

The Epic of Hmong Ancient Songs is an ancient folk narrative poem, but also a living folk literature. As a writing context, The Hmong Ancient Songs is a product of a particular time and space, also a representation of ethnic cultural memory, fully lingering folk culture with ethnographic characteristics. However, this epic with full folk culture information in the ethnography, not only includes the objective and real side, but also the individual and epochal features. Its value is needed to be further explored.
