构建中国特色的民俗谱系学

An Analysis on Constructing Folklore Genealogy with Chinese Characteristics

民俗谱系学是建立中国民俗学派和中国民俗学自主话语体系的重要理论探索,对解释民俗的知识生产、传承发展和民俗知识内在关联体的结构具有创新意义。民俗作为谱系性的生活实践,在时间延续性和空间整体性基础上呈现以区域生活与文化认同为核心的知识层累性、内容建构性、社会聚合性等特征。围绕民众生活的血缘、地缘、语言等要素形成的民俗谱系在社会历史、生态环境、民众需求的作用下展现不同时期的民俗生活样态,形塑民俗生活的多元结构关系。民俗谱系遵循家庭—家族—村落—国家的时空逻辑,围绕民俗生活核心要素生成的民俗谱系在树干、树枝、树叶的关系中有机联结从而形成民俗生命树形结构图谱。民俗谱系学是纵横交织的社会关系、生活关系、文化关系和空间关系的聚合,其构成的民俗生活实践共同体成为铸牢中华民族共同体意识的具体行动。
