论《格斯尔》史诗研究旨趣转向——敬贺北京木刻本《格斯尔传》出版300周年

A Turn of the Research Interest regarding Geser Studies:In Celebration of 300th Anniversary of Beijing Woodenblock Geser

本文在简要回顾《格斯尔》学术史基础上,认为《格斯尔》研究虽然历经300年,但有个现象尚未得到学界充分认知,那就是蒙古语族其实并没有一个全知全能的总体《格斯尔》传统。事实上,各地区各部落《格斯尔》传统都是真实局部的多样化存在,各有各的微型构造,在一些特定社区经历着不尽相同的流变,保持着本土底色和不拘一格的生命活力,有着各自存在的意义和价值。当前《格斯尔》研究中,亟需引入"内部知识"学术视角,把研究旨趣从《格斯尔》宏大框架的描述转向微型构造的阐发,揭示《格斯尔》本土活态传统,并借助个案高度类化功能,对《格斯尔》总体状况做出真实的描述与阐释,以破解《格斯尔》到底是怎样一个庞然大物这一核心命题。

Based on a review of the history of Geser studies,the present paper points out that,although with over 300years＇ history,there is still an issue which has not yet been consented,that is,there is not an all containing Geser tradition that belongs to all Mongolian language speaking peoples.The Geser tradition of the different areas and different tribes differ in their contents and structures,and are transmitted and changed in their unique ways,keeping in themselves local features and unique value and significance.Present Geser studies are in urgent need of inner knowledge perspectives,a turn of perspective from all-over view on grand constructions to the micro structures,so as to reveal the local live traditions,and to give a practical description and interpretation of the Geser through case studies,and thereby implore the key issue regarding the grandiosity of the Geser.
