摘要
包括民俗学在内的社会人文学科,应该都有一个指向于造福民众、建设美好社会的目标,因此,对于何为美好社会的追问自然就成为重要的研究课题。最大多数的人民心情舒畅、对生活有希望、有信心,可以感受到生活和生命的意义,亦即人民能够感受到“幸福”的社会才堪称是美好社会。但是,何谓“幸福”,“幸福”都有哪些标准,这却是又一个难题。在人类社会的不同文化和语言中,“幸福”这一概念既有通约之处,但又不完全通约,例如汉语中的“幸福”或“福”就与英语的happiness有所不同,它除了指称美好生活,同时也指称好的运气以及有意义的人生。很多社会人文学科都对“幸福”相关问题深感兴趣,但从民俗学的视角探讨中国民众“幸福观”的研究还显得较为薄弱,故本文不揣浅陋,拟对此问题展开一些初步的论述。
The concept of“happiness”is usually considered a sociological or philosophical subject of study.However,the author of this article suggests a folkloristic approach to the study of issues related to the concept of“happiness”.This thesis is a preliminary but a systematic scanning and summarizing of the“concept of happiness”of the common people as reflected in the rich and varied folklore of China.It is believed that“concept of happiness”is one of the key words for understanding the basic values of Chinese folk culture.The author points out that,for the current Chinese folklore,it is indeed of great significance to seriously consider the maintenance and change of the general public’s“concept of happiness”after the occurrence and development of the“revolution of life”.
