摘要:
三献礼是一种隆重的祭奠仪式, 旧时见于巴蜀各地,今则较为少见,但在新都客家族群中仍有流传。新都三献礼沿袭了古代“初献、亚献、终献”的结构模式,加入了“讲书、歌诗”等颇具民间特色的环节。通过近十年来在新都及周边地区的田野调查所得,结合文献材料,可从新都三献礼源远流长的历史、隆重持久的仪式中窥见其所蕴涵的情感宣泄与心理调适、身份认同与族群凝聚、追思亡者与追忆历史、民众教化与文化传承等功能。
Abstract:
San Xian Li, a religious ritual activity, is rare at the moment. It was practiced in Ba-Shu region, Sichuan. However, the ritual in the Hakka ethnic group of Xindu is a different matter. The procedures of the sacrificial rituals include the traditional worship for three times, the storytelling, songs with the distinct local features. Based on both ten years' fieldwork in Xindu and beyond and documentation, this paper reveals different functions of the grand ceremony, including emotional release, social integrity, mourning, recollection, the edification of the ethnic group and cultural inheritance etc.
