文化多元与邂逅:电影作品中的华裔社区地方营造

Cultural diversity and encounter: The place making of Chinese community in film works

经过艺术加工的影视作品反映现实的同时也高于现实,不断重构、书写现实空间。本研究援引邂逅地理及地方感等理论,以5部华裔社区空间题材的电影作品为主要分析对象,以文本分析法为主要研究方法,探讨五部影片中关于华裔社区的选择再现及其背后蕴涵的社会文化意义。研究发现:①影视文本首先从民俗仪式与风水文化两个空间文化符号出发,构建地方性;在此基础上,电影文本以景观符号为切入口再现华裔社区的物质空间,实现新的地方营造。②文化多元的背景下,华裔社区成为“我者”文化与“他者”文化邂逅的重要场所。③非表征理论通过强调人的“身体”与族裔社区的相互关系从而在地方协商和情感融入框架下探索新的邂逅。研究还进一步探讨了电影文本中族裔社区的文化多元性与地方治理的关系,为族裔社区在未来实现更好的地方治理提供参考与建议。

Art-processed film works reflect reality and surpass reality, constantly reconstructing and writing real space. This study cites theories of encounter geography, sense of place and Non-Representational, focusing on the film works of four Chinese communities. With text analysis as the main research method, this paper is attempt to explore the selective reproduction of Chinese community in four films, and, more importantly, the social and cultural significance behind it. The findings are as follows:(1) The film texts first start from the two spatial cultural symbols of folk rituals and geomancy culture, and make placeness. On this basis, the film texts use the landscape symbol as the entrance to reproduce the material space of the Chinese community and realize the new place-making.(2) Under the background of cultural diversity, the Chinese community has become an important place for "the self" culture encountering "the other" culture.(3) Non-representational theory explores new encounters within a framework of local negotiation and affective integration by emphasizing the interrelationship between people and ethnic communities.(4) The study further explores the relationship between the cultural diversity of ethnic communities and local governance in the film texts, and provides references and recommendations for ethnic communities to achieve better local governance in the future.
