摘要
刀在西南山地民族生产、生活中广泛运用,形成西南少数民族多姿多彩的刀文化,其中尤以景颇族刀文化内涵丰富,最具特点。景颇刀作为男性、法师、生命力的符号象征,在出生礼、婚礼、丧礼等人生礼仪中,发挥着保护婴儿、婚姻纽带以及护送亡魂的功能;在驱鬼仪式、祭祖仪式和目瑙纵歌等集体性祭祀仪式中,发挥着驱鬼辟邪、保卫村寨以及构筑神圣空间的功能。从仪式象征视角分析西南少数民族的刀文化,对理解西南少数民族的生产生活、民族习俗、信仰观念与民族精神等具有启发意义。
Dao,Chinese for knife,sword,or sabre,is used so widely in the production and life of the ethnic minorities in southwest China that a colorful dao culture has developed,especially with the Jingpo whose dao culture has rich connotations and special features.As a symbol of masculinity,wizardry and vitality,Jingpo dao has the functions of protecting babies,maintaining marriages and escorting the deceased in life rituals such as birth,weddings and funerals.It also functions to expel evil spirits,protect the village and build a sacred space in mass sacrificial ceremonies such as exorcism ceremonies,ancestor-worshiping celebrations and a local traditional ceremony called munao zongge.Analyzing the dao culture of the ethnic minorities in southwest China from the perspective of ceremonial symbol is instructive to understand their production activities,ethnic customs,beliefs,ideology and ethnic spirit.
