【摘要】 人类文化自产生以来,就具有可以被理解的特点。同时,文化借助象征符号得以创造和呈现。因此,对文化象征符号的观察和阐释成为人类学家积极追寻的方向。本文以水东蜜枣为研究对象,梳理了国内对枣文化的研究和西方人类学家关于神话-仪式的理论,采用参与观察、文献分析、深度访谈等方法,获得了丰富的资料,旨在对水东蜜枣文化进行微观描述,并对其中的文化符号进行解读,发现并理解其在当地社会中的文化功能和意义。对素有“蜜枣之乡”的水东之枣文化进行深刻解读,离不开对其展开深入详实的实地调查。只有将水东蜜枣文化放置于它存在的当地社会生活中,才能获得对水东蜜枣文化的深刻阐释。此外,通过对水东蜜枣文化的解读,笔者希望为“如何在现代化影响下,既保护水东蜜枣的历史文化,使它不失活力地传承下去,又促使当地形成文化产业”提供思路。本文由引言和四个章节组成。引言部分简要阐述了本文的研究缘起。第一章导论主要梳理了国内枣文化研究概况以及国外关于仪式研究的理论范式及研究领域,阐明了研究意义、研究方法,并界定了相关概念。第二章介绍了水东镇的地理环境和文化环境,包括气候、资源、当地主要经济方式、方言、饮食等多方面情况。第三、四章为本文的主体。第三章主要介绍了水东蜜枣文化中的制枣文化、食枣文化以及有关蜜枣的民间传说。虽然水东蜜枣制作经历了由家庭手工作坊到蜜枣合作社、现代工业化枣产品加工企业的历史过程,但是水东镇上当地的传统制作工艺和工具至今仍保留着,即使是在现代加工工艺中也渗透着一些传统气息。在食枣文化中,对当地比较典型的春节、婚礼这两个场合中关于枣的运用进行了细致的描述。水东当地关于蜜枣起源的民间传说有几个版本。在这些传说情节不但引人入胜,而且与当地社会事实紧密联系。第四章结合上一章对蜜枣文化的描述,重点分析了和尚帽子、茶枣、“枣归传说”作为象征符号在当地社会生活中的意义。结语部分对水东镇蜜枣文化进行了小结,并通过对水东蜜枣的文化符号阐释为其未来发展提供了一些思路。更多还原
