多学科视角下的侗族家谱研究

Multidisciplinary Approaches to the Study of Traditional Genealogies of the Kam People

侗族民间家谱储藏量大,内容丰富,形态多样。侗族家谱可称为侗族社会历史发展的百科全书,对其进行研究意义重大。然学界以往对侗族家谱的研究却相当薄弱。已有研究只限于对简单套用汉族家谱范式的研究,而遗存于民间的诸多原始形态口传家谱和简单谱单还未能引起学界应有的关注和重视,同时随着保存有家谱资源的巫师、老人的相继离世,侗族传统形态家谱已处于极度濒危状态,故对其进行抢救性研究刻不容缓。侗族家谱所涵盖的内容极其丰富,所关涉的方法颇为广博,所涉猎的学科领域相当复杂,而当前对侗族家谱研究的视角却极为单一。鉴于此,应努力打破学科界限,整合历史学、民族学人类学、语言学和文献学等学科的理论和方法,在侗族家谱研究中取长补短,以实现研究上的突破。

Traditional genealogies among the Kam People are voluminous in quantity,rich in content,and various in forms. These records have great social-historical significance to the Kam communities. However,currently the study of Kam genealogies is rather weak and much constrained by the paradigm of Han genealogy studies,without attention to traditional Kam geneaologies existed in oral and listing forms that have been gradually endangered.Therefore,there is an urgent need for scholars in the field of Kam Studies to undertake serious work in rescuing,collecting,collating and analyzing the traditional Kam genealogies in multidiscinlary perspectives.
