Lingnan Lion Dance vs Jiangnan Dragon Dance, whose DNA moved as soon as the child stretched out his hand? (Theme).
During the Spring Festival, a short ** swipe screen - on the streets of Jieyang, Guangdong, a 7-year-old girl practiced lion dance at the door of the store, and it happened that a truck carrying the lion dance team passed by, and the team members improvised gongs and drums and shouted to cheer ......The whole neighborhood seems to have become a stage for their interaction, and the warm scene of surprise and the same frame touched many netizens. Coincidentally, many ancient towns, business districts and communities in Shanghai staged their own dragon and lion dances in the New Year, full of positive spirit; Yesterday, on the first day of school, primary and secondary school students in Shanghai danced the Year of the Dragon gesture dance, tried the Year of the Dragon paper-cut rubbing, etc., and felt the charm of the New Year in a festive and warm atmosphere.
Lingnan Lion Dance vs Jiangnan Dragon Dance, as soon as the children stretch out their hands, whose DNA moves? To help intangible cultural heritage folklore enter the public eye, what does it rely on to "put the finishing touch" on its inheritance? After the Spring Festival, can folk culture continue to be integrated into contemporary daily life?
From the popularity of the girls' lion dance** to the appearance of British singing and dancing on the streets of London, the influence of Chinese festivals and folk customs is increasingly out of the circle. Efforts should be made to explore the essence of traditional culture, leverage the Internet social platform to attract fans, and let intangible cultural heritage live in the present and be popular in the present, so as to effectively promote exchanges and mutual learning among civilizations. Bi Xuling, director of the Folklore Research Office of the Institute of Literature of the Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences, said in an interview that coinciding with the Year of the Dragon in the lunar calendar, the image of the dragon and the lion not only contains the ideal pursuit of human beings, but also transcends the ordinary real life, can resonate with people from different cultural backgrounds, and is a three-dimensional and rich carrier of national culture. In the Internet era, tapping "large traffic" to generate positive energy is an effective path for the development of intangible cultural heritage.
The warm-hearted same frame is on fire, opening a new path of "out of the circle" and "breaking the wall".
Instant tears! The little girl bowed her head three times to express her respect and gratitude to her predecessors, which was too heartwarming in the same frame, and cultural inheritance flowed naturally between generations. "Cultural self-confidence is not false, it is ...... on the dragon that leaps highThe highly praised comments in the message area convey the spontaneous national pride of netizens.
The dragon, symbolized by the land of China, represents auspiciousness, sacredness and power; The lion is a symbol of bravery, strength and heroism. The images and characteristics of these creatures occupy a pivotal position in Chinese civilization. "In the process of creating the image of the dragon and the lion, the ancient Chinese instilled various concepts, including aesthetics, world view, outlook on life, etc., and also created many myths and legends, which contain ideals that belong to the common human race. Bi Xuling said that the Rui Beast after the eye is endowed with life energy, which embodies the longing for a better life. Lion dance techniques such as head swinging, tumbling up and down, winding and falling, etc., are both rigid and soft, which is very ornamental and artistic.
It is undeniable that most of the traditional intangible cultural heritage skills rely on family inheritance and hand-to-hand transmission, and more and more inheritors realize that it is very important to master the "traffic password" in order to solve the bottlenecks such as lack of successors and the loss of faults, so that excellent cultural heritage can last for a long time. In recent years, it is not uncommon for similar "out of the circle" and "breaking the wall" to explore. When the intangible cultural heritage is moved to the "cloud", craftsmen such as bamboo weaving, root carving, and lacquer art show off their skills in the live broadcast room; The mountain village is an umbrella man who "touches the net" and shares the behind-the-scenes story of the birth of an oil-paper umbrella with netizens; A number of documentaries and short ** use the lens to tell the ...... of skills and ingenuity that have been inherited for thousands of yearsAs a result, the traditional skills have gone from little known to countless "circle fans", rejuvenating themselves at the moment and finding new acquaintances.
Industry insiders believe that rather than being "out of the circle" of intangible cultural heritage, it is better to understand it as a kind of "return" - with the help of the power of the Internet, traditional folk customs can return to public life and rejuvenate the value of the times. If the previous period of "return" was mostly an original display and presentation, now more "mix and match" innovations are budding. For example, the mini program customizes personalized patterns, the thousand-year-old Shu embroidery transforms into trendy clothes, and the ......intangible cultural heritage elements are embedded in the two-dimensional gameBehind the "new" content, it is also the update of marketing concepts and Internet thinking, so that the ancient intangible cultural heritage can approach Generation Z with a light and flexible attitude.
Rooted in regional characteristics, interpreting the new temperament and new strength of Dragon and Lion.
As a form of folk culture that the people have always liked to see, the dragon and lion dance had the meaning of praying for rain, relieving disasters, rewarding the gods, and praying for peace in the early years. "The dragon dance is prosperous, the lion dance is harmonious", this is the bearing of the Chinese nation. Whether it is the lion dance dragon boat race in Lingnan culture or the Jiangnan dragon dance in Shanghai culture, how to root different regional characteristics and profound heritage, and excavate and amplify them is a proposition facing the renewal of folk culture.
The Chinese dragon dance and lion dance have obvious regional characteristics, such as the lion dance is divided into northern lion and southern lion. The regionality of the dragon dance is even more obvious. Compared with the lion dance, the Jiangnan dragon dance is more developed, and ancient documents such as the "Historical Records" and the "Book of Han" all describe the dragon worship of the Jiangnan ancestors who cut off their hair and tattoos, and its sacrificial rituals are the prototype of the Jiangnan dragon dance that has been inherited to the present day.
As an important part of the Jiangnan Dragon Dance, the Shanghai Dragon Dance reflects the openness and tolerance of Shanghai-style culture, and also shows the awareness of harmonious coexistence between man and nature. Among them, the traditional dance carp jumping over the dragon gate in Minhang District is the result of the fusion of folk literature and art of the Northern Jiangsu Gang and the Anhui Gang; The Songjiang Yexie Dancing Grass Dragon Worship Han Xiangzi and the Divine Dragon, as well as the rain prayer ceremony reflect the idea of praying for gratitude to nature; Pudong Sanlin Town's "Dragon Lantern" was selected as the third batch of national intangible cultural heritage, inheriting the essence of traditional dragon dance, but also incorporating domestic and foreign skills, integrating the body language of dance, the pace of opera, the spirit and charm of martial arts, and the tumbling and moving of acrobatics, forming the characteristics of modern dragon dance.
In the eyes of the industry, the protection of precious cultural heritage should not only pass on the form, but also attach importance to the understanding of its tradition and spirit, which reflects the Chinese's pursuit of a better and happy life, the praise of the spirit of bravery, and the respect for "Taoism and nature, the unity of nature and man".
There are voices reminding that some folk customs are mostly scattered and phased, such as the dragon and lion dance during the Spring Festival, and the dragon boat to eat zongzi during the Dragon Boat Festival, but many people do not understand how the festival is produced and why its customs can be preserved. "We need more opportunities and more systematic narration to build a genealogy that can reflect the unique cosmology and family and country views of the Chinese, so that the ins and outs of traditional festivals can gradually become clear." Cultivate the atmosphere of traditional culture for the whole people to value and enjoy, and combine folk intangible cultural heritage with contemporary life through various innovative forms, so that intangible cultural heritage can take root and blossom upward. Bi Xuling said. (Wen Wei Po reporter Xu Yang).
