节日文化实践中的民族交往交流交融——以云南澜沧拉祜族九皇会为例

Ethnic Communication, Exchanges and Integration in the Practice of Festival Culture:Taking the Jiu Huang Hui of the Lahu Ethnic Group in Lancang, Yunnan as anExample

民族节日庆典和仪式操演既是民族文化展示的窗口,又是民族文化不断交融、创新和再生产的过程。九皇会最初与道教和佛教文化有关,自明末清初传入云南澜沧赛罕拉祜族地区后,逐渐与拉祜族文化融合,形成了具有地方特色的祈福祭祀活动和年俗礼仪。随着时代的变迁,九皇会也从单纯的民间祈福祭祀活动演变成了大众化的民俗节日庆典,实现了民族节日文化习俗的共享与文化赓续,成为当下拉祜族、汉族、哈尼族、佤族等民族交流互动的平台。作为跨越村落和族群的多民族共享的传统节日,九皇会及其文化实践为各民族交往交流交融提供了一个生动的案例。

Ethnic festival celebrations and ritual performances are not only windows for showcasing ethnic culture,but also a process of continu-ous integration,innovation,and reproduction of ethnic culture. The Jiu Huang Hui was initially related to Taoism and Buddhist culture. After being introduced to the Saihan Lahu ethnic area of Lancang,Yunnan in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties,it gradually merged with the culture of the Lahu ethnic group,forming local characteristics of prayer and worship activities and customs. With the changing times,the Jiu Huang Hui has evolved from a simple folk prayer and worship activity to a popular folk festival celebration,realizing the sharing and cultural continuity of ethnic festival cus-toms,becoming a platform for communication and interaction among ethnic groups such as the Lahu,Han,Hani,and Wa. As a traditional festival that transcends ethnic boundaries and is shared by multiple ethnic groups,the Jiu Huang Hui and its cultural practices provide a vivid case for ethnic communication,exchanges and integration.
