论纳西族史诗《黑白战争》的多元文化表征

The Naxi Epic The Black-White War as a Multi-cultural Presentation

史诗《黑白战争》被称为纳西族文学史上的“三大台柱”之一,其完整而宏大的叙事和丰富的文化内涵都在纳西文学中独树一帜。与另外两部作品相比,《黑白战争》显然表现出受多元文化影响的印记,古埃及文明、中原道教、藏族苯教的影响都可以在其身上找到印证,呈现出东西文化、民汉文化混融的特征,并且这种“杂糅”景观,在史诗文本既有碎片化的意象表现,也有整体情节和审美风格的隐秘表征,可以说,它是多元文化交流和传播的结果,具有极为显著的多元性、兼容性文化内涵。

Acclaimed as one of the“three pillars of Naxi literature”and renowned for its grand narrative scope and rich cultural connotation,The Black-White War is most characterized by influence of multiple cultures– ancient Egyptian civilization,Taoism of Central China and Tibetan Benzenism,to name just a few.In short,it is a hybrid work showing both the oriental and western civilizations as well as the Naxi and the Han cultures,a characteristic presented in the epic text as both fragmented imagery and continuous aesthetic metaphor.As a result,the epic is a highly diversified and open system.
