《母与子》中的民俗语词与民俗文化

Folklore Words and Folk Culture in Mother and Son

《母与子》不仅刻画了沈明贞这样的革命母亲和英雄母亲形象,同时也反映了当时的风俗人情。小说描述了“请春酒”习俗、做满月习俗、婚礼习俗、“吃讲茶”习俗等。这些习俗反映了当时中国的饮食文化、婚育文化和诉讼文化,依然影响当今的社会生活。其中“请春酒”习俗有利于留存和发扬传统的美食文化,也能给该习俗存留区带来一定的经济价值。“吃讲茶”是旧时民间解决纠纷的形式之一,与当今的庭外和解有一定的相似之处。现今新兴的“吃讲茶”,目的不再是解决纠纷,它已成为邻里之间相互传递信息、沟通情感的主要形式。这些习俗的存在有利于人们相互交流、增进了解,对构建和谐社会有着潜移默化的促进作用。
