文化记忆与族群认同:基于妈祖文化的民族情感共同体建构

Cultural Memory and Ethnic Identity:Constructing a National Emotional Community based on Mazu Culture

在海峡两岸文化交流实践中,妈祖信俗作为共享的文化记忆,塑造了两岸同胞的集体认同,在民族情感共同体的建构中发挥了重要作用。通过媒介化的感性叙述,妈祖文化诉诸族群成员的情感需求,有效推动了自身的历史传承。妈祖信仰所蕴含的情感能量,基于族群认同的共享叙事,生动阐释了仪式与文本的互动关系。以妈祖文化为例,透过文化记忆的理论视角,可以深入探析两岸民众在共享的民间信俗中创构共生记忆的机制,为民族情感共同体的建构提供有益启示。

In the practice of cultural exchange across the Taiwan Strait,Mazu rituals and beliefs,as shared cultural memories,have shaped the collective identity of people on both sides,playing a significant role in constructing a national emotional community.Through mediated emotional narratives,Mazu culture addresses the emotional needs of ethnic group members and effectively promotes its own historical continuity.The emotional power inherent in Mazu belief,based on shared narratives of ethnic identity,vividly illustrates the interaction between rituals and texts.Taking Mazu culture as an example,this study explores the mechanisms of co-constructing shared memories in folk customs among people on both sides of the strait from the perspective of cultural memory theory,providing valuable insights into the construction of a national emotional community.
