土家族民间舞蹈的民俗文化研究——基于清江流域人生仪式的调查

The Study of Tujia Folk Dance:Base on the Fieldwork of Life Rituals in Qingjiang Valley

以岁时节日、人生仪式、信仰习俗为主的民俗活动,为民间舞蹈提供了广阔的传承空间,尤其在少数民族地区这一特征尤为明显。文章基于清江流域土家族人生仪式的田野调查,以诞生仪式中的"花鼓子"和丧葬仪式中的"撒叶儿嗬"为个案分析,指出民族民间舞蹈是族群情感的集体化表述,是人们用身体语言记录下来的社会文化史,它是在民俗活动中产生、传承和发展起来的,因此应重视民族民间舞蹈的民俗文化研究价值。

Folk activities provide a wide inheritance space for folk dance, which include traditional festivals, life rituals and belief. This characteristic finds an echo in minority areas. This paper studies Tujia folk dance and is based on the fieldwork of life rituals in Qingjiang valley, such as "Hua Gu Zi","Sa Ye Er He" and so on.
