从象征到符号:维吾尔文化中的斑鸠

From Symbol to Sign:Turtle Dove in Uyghur Culture

斑鸠在维吾尔文化中具有"怕老婆"的象征含义。文章通过对维吾尔文化中斑鸠象征含义的探讨,建构了此象征的清晰轮廓。构成斑鸠象征含义的"核心要素"是随时代的变化而产生转变的,同时更与维吾尔族的社会分工及认知结构有密不可分的关系。文章认为,人类在象征含义建构的过程中离不开自身的社会文化实践和认知结构体系,社会文化实践过程与人们的认知结构体系是建构象征含义的重要基础。

Turtle dove has the symbolic meaning of 'being afraid of one's wife'in Uyghur language. The paper explores the symbolic meaning in Uyghur culture, and constructs a clear outline of this symbol. The 'core element'of forming the turtle dove symbol changes according to social changes; it is, at the same time, closely linked to the Uyghur social specializations and cognitive structures. The paper interprets that the construction process of human symbolic meanings cannot be separated from its social cultural practices and cognitive structures. Social cultural practices and human cognitive structures are the important foundations of constructing symbolic meanings.
