桂西"长住娘家"习俗来源新探

A New Research into the Origin of the Custom of Long-living in Mother's Family in West Guangxi

笔者通过对桂西"长住娘家"习俗深入的剖析,结合原始遗俗、史籍文献,提出了汉壮文化互动说,作为"长住娘家"习俗产生原因的新见解。即在汉文化的南传中,壮侗语族先民具有原始对偶婚特点之恋爱婚姻观与汉族具有"重礼"特点的婚姻礼节文化碰撞而产生了"长住娘家"习俗。

This paper analyzes the custom of longling in mother's family in west Guangxi, the related historical records and ancient customs, and puts forward the new theory of interacting Han and Zhuang cultures to account for the custom. In the process of Han culture spreading towards the south, the merger of the love concept that Zhuang ancestors held and the marriage custom of Han people which stressed etiquettes led to the custom of longliving in mother's family.
