论格萨尔史诗的中华传统文化

On the Traditional Chinese Culture of Gesar Epic

文章从政治神话功能、“人地结合”身份表达模式、叙事细节的原型几方面,探讨格萨尔史诗蕴藏的中华传统文化。政治神话是中华民族的古老智慧之一,格萨尔史诗不论是神化格萨尔王天神下凡、拯救人间的主题,还是表现主题的天人感应等艺术手段,都具有中华传统文化的精神品质,显示了中华民族共同体意识。“人地结合”身份表达模式源自中华民族古老的封地社会治理模式和“用国为姓”家园情怀,格萨尔史诗继承了中华农耕传统文化创造的人地结合身份表达模式,并依据生存环境和游牧生活对身份言说方式进行了创造性改造,形成了赞美草地和崇拜山水的家园情怀,体现了地方化的“人地结合”身份意识。格萨尔史诗叙事细节诸如女性崇拜、动植物喜好、习俗以及情节设置等,都能找到中华传统文化原型。
