论南海传统文化资源体系

On Traditional Cultural Resources System of the South China Sea

中国人民在漫长的历史进程中,在环南海区域、南海海域和南海诸岛,留下大量认识南海、利用南海、改造南海的文化资源,既有历史文物、文化遗址、文化建筑群等物质文化资源,也有以海为田的海耕文化、以海为商的海洋商业文化、南海海神崇拜和宗教信仰、南海海洋文学艺术等精神文化资源,更有包括制度化的文化、民俗、民风文化等在内的制度文化资源。从文化类型角度对南海文化资源进行分析,对南海文化资源的整体性、系统性认知,是从事南海传统文化资源保护与开发、实现南海文化发展和繁荣的基本前提和条件。

In the long course of history, the Chinese people have left a large number of cuhural resources in the South China Sea islands and their adjacent waters, which are reflections of their knowing, utilizing and recon- structing the South China Sea. Those cultural resources include material ones such as relics and buildings, spir- itual ones such as sea reclamation culture, maritime business culture, sea god worship and religious belief, mari- time literature and arts, etc. , and institutionalized ones such as institutionalized culture, folk -ways, and folk customs, etc. Analyzing the cultural resources of the South China Sea from the viewpoint of cultural topology and cognizing it wholly and systematically is the basic premise and condition of protecting and developing the South China Sea cultural resources.
