黄河电影的文化意义地图

Map of the Cultural Significance of Films about Yellow River

河流书写是中国文明史中一个古老且恒久的艺术主题,以“黄河”地理空间为叙事支点的电影,将地理景观、社会语境、风俗习惯、文化信仰等方面交织起来,共同构成中国电影发展史中“黄河电影”的独立篇章。本文借助地理“制图”的方式反向阐释黄河电影的文化意义建构,确立了以黄河地理景观为坐标轴,依托人物情结归属为原点的核心要素,并在时空变迁中完成了书写流动中的黄河文化意义地图的题旨。

Writings about rivers is an ancient and eternal artistic theme in the history of Chinese civilization.The film taking the geographical space of "the Yellow River" as the narrative fulcrum interweaves the geographical landscape, political context, customs, cultural beliefs, and other aspects, forming an independent chapter of "the Yellow River Film" in the history of Chinese film development. With the help of "cartography," the cultural significance of the Yellow River film is inversely explained. By establishing the geographical landscape of the Yellow River as the coordinate axis, those films take the characters’ complex as the origin and draw maps about Yellow River’s cultural significance in the process of temporal/spatial transitions.
