“杂吧地儿”:中国都市民俗学的一种方法

Zabadir:As a Method of Urban Folklore in China

"杂吧地儿"是旧京土语,专指前门外那个三教九流汇聚而称作天桥的地方。从市场、市声、剧场、博物馆、地铁等不同空间观之,今日北京城的生机正在于其不断试图清理、消除的"杂吧地儿"属性和市井小民不断刷新的"杂吧地儿"之韧性。目前,以百老汇为模版,在天桥地界纷纷耸立的诸多豪奢建筑,并不仅仅是景观、剧场。它们在不停地强行嵌入、叠写天桥,又力求全方位覆盖以刷新。作为"老街",杂吧地儿天桥更是一种思维方式,是一种方法,至少是一缕永难泯灭的"念想"。将杂吧地儿视为一种方法,就有可能重新评估世界范围内类似地方与其所在城市之间的关系。古今中外,各色人等可能生存的杂吧地儿才是一个空间、一座伟大城市真正的生态和常态,是一座城市前行的动力与助力。

Zabadir which refers to the place called the Sky Bridge is a dialect of Old Beijing.From the perspective of market,sound from the market,theatre,museum,and subway,etc.,the reason of Beijing′s vitality today is that it constantly attempts to clean up and eliminate the Zabadir attribute and the tenacity of the Zabadir renovated by the folk people.At present,with Broadway as a template,many luxurious buildings have been erected in the Sky Bridge,which are not just landscapes and theatres,but constantly forcibly embedding,overlapped,and striving for omni-directional coverage to get refresh.As an"old street",Zabadiris a way of thinking,a method,at least a wisp of indelible memory.When treating Zabadir as a method,we can reassess the relationship between similar places around the world and their cities.Zabadiris a space and a great city of true ecology and normality,where all kinds of people,ancient and modern,can survive.And it is also the power and impetus for a city to move forward.
