this mid autumn festival, because only two days time, many people give up back home and family reunion, let people sigh that the Mid Autumn Festival taste is more light. In the traditional impression, the Mid Autumn Festival is a day of family reunion, but now it can no longer find its former feelings. Does the traditional festival leave only the holiday and the meal? The folk custom experts believe that the Mid Autumn Festival is originated from the local festival. With the urbanization process, the festival is the inevitable thing because of the lack of ground gas. The key to the restoration of the traditional folklore of the Mid Autumn Festival is to restore its inheritance and improve the national identity of the Mid Autumn Festival. What attracts the next generation of traditional culture has become an urgent issue.
two days holiday makes the mid autumn festival very embarrassing
at the beginning of the two day holiday of the Mid Autumn Festival this year, which has caused doubts in the society. But because the long holiday is too close to the National Day holiday, the two day is also a reasonable arrangement, but because it overlaps with the weekend and has no rest, the two day holiday becomes dispensable. Do not take the mid autumn holiday, the weekend is not the normal rest of the two days?
the sound of the Mid Autumn Festival is more desalination, many outsiders have given up back home and family reunion, but choose to stay in Ji'nan. Still busy seems to be the only business, like all legal holidays, the mid autumn holiday once again become a business day, a variety of business activities, the holiday sales economy shows its magic magic again.
this seems to be more in accordance with the original meaning of the Mid Autumn Festival. At first, the Mid Autumn Festival was the appearance of the daughter's day and the festival of appreciation of the moon, and the festival of family reunion began in the Ming Dynasty. In the view of Zhang Congjun, vice president of the Shandong folk custom society, the taste of the Mid Autumn Festival is the inevitable trend of urbanization. In ancient China, it was a farming culture. The Mid Autumn Festival was actually a typical farming culture festival. With the development of urbanization, many young people leave the native land, and the scientific and technological progress makes the agricultural harvest no longer difficult, the heart of people's worship of worship and reverence gradually fade, the Mid Autumn Festival, which originated from the local culture, lost its original sense of sanctity, and the taste of the festival is also unavoidable. Zhang Congjun also gave an example of an old Ji'nan. In Ji'nan, the past moon cakes were made by themselves. After the worship of the queen rabbit, the whole family divided their food. The moon cake at that time still has a meaning for people, because it is a sacrificial thing, the identity of moon cake is no longer common, but it has the role of prevention and security, and the moon cake is now basically production line, commercial operation let the moon cake lack the sacred sense, the mid autumn Festival in the eyes of young people is not so sacred as the old man seems so sacred. That's right.
old Ji'nan, the Mid Autumn Festival is quite beautiful
Ji'nan moon cake example let a lot of old Ji'nan think of the mid autumn festival scene, Ji'nan palace rabbit king, fresh goods basket, moon cake, these things are the fifteen necessary things of my childhood in August, called.Amp; lsquo three large pieces of.Amp; rsquo, very rare now Sometimes, I miss it very much. Mr. Zhao, a more than 50 year old citizen, told reporters this year.
Mr. Zhao, the Ji'nan palace rabbit king, the fresh basket, and the moon cake are the necessary things for the old Ji'nan to pass the Mid Autumn Festival. Mr. Zhao told reporters that when he was young, there was a sale of the Ji'nan palace rabbit king on the street, and it was known that fifteen was coming in August. Zhang Congjun said, these items of rabbit king reflect the emotional sustenance of ancestors, and let the Mid Autumn Festival live with the way of folk creation. The popularity of rabbit king at that time benefited from the belief of the people in the king of rabbit. But with the improvement of the knowledge and culture of the masses, people no longer believe in the rabbit king, but as an appreciation of the folk art, the connotation of the Mid Autumn Festival of the rabbit king itself has been infinitely desalinated.
family springs, household Yang, this is the true portrayal of Ji'nan in the spring city, and this kind of humanities also has the unique charm of the Mid Autumn Festival in Ji'nan. Zhang Congjun told reporters that the old Jinan people like the mid autumn festival because Ji'nan has the innate advantages that other places do not have. In the past, the family had spring water. Mid Autumn Festival is the brightest year of the moon, the past conditions are poor, no electric lights, but it is such conditions in the invisible magnification of the advantage of the Mid Autumn Festival, every household spring can reflect the moon, a family in the yard to eat to enjoy the moon do not have fun, and go out to play also do not worry about dark, because the big moon is Hanging in the sky, such a scene, children today is unthinkable.
, in addition, the old Ji'nan also has many interesting customs in the Mid Autumn Festival. For example, the two should go home and visit the old people in the festival. It is generally the fifteen home in August and the sixteen home in August. For many young people who quarrel with their families now, this kind of wisdom is worth learning.
restoring traditional folklore is a long way to go.
since 2008, Qingming, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid Autumn Festival and other traditional festivals have been added as national statutory holidays. Zhu Zhenhua, a teacher at Qilu Normal University, is the origin of the doctor of folklore. In his view, holidays and festivals are two different concepts. The state sets traditional festivals as legal holidays to allow people to enjoy the atmosphere of the festival better than a simple holiday.
traditional festivals are less and more festive, is folk custom changed? In Zhu Zhenhua's view, the content of the festival has not changed, but some traditional folklore is gradually lost. When we study Festival folklore, we will mention a word,.Amp; lsquo human emotion is the soul of the Chinese festival.Amp; rsquo, the culture needs to be presented in a certain way, and the festival is one of the media, the festival is the culture, the carrier of culture, the Chinese civilization pays attention to the human, and the western culture values religion. Therefore, we can see that western festivals are basically religious festivals, and human feelings can be regarded as the soul of Chinese traditional culture. The loss of traditional folklore is a serious problem. Folklore is the soul of a nation and a collective of excellent historical and cultural traditions. Although.Amp; the survival of the fittest, the survival of the fittest, the survival of the fittest,.Amp; rsquo is a cruel fact, but it is a mistake to let it go away.
Zhu Zhenhua works in Colleges and universities. In the long term teaching practice, he found that the death of the traditional folk custom is actually more a human reason. For example, the Mid Autumn Festival is the reason for the busy people, but not the fundamental reason. The basic reason is that the modern people have not received the traditional folk custom education from childhood. It has a sense of awe and a lack of awareness of folk festivals. Zhu Zhenhua and other folkloric scholars have been trying to improve the people's knowledge of traditional culture. This Friday, we had a folklore exhibition at University of Jinan. Many children and even many college students were interested in the display of the Mid Autumn Festival folk utensils. Many people surrounded the instructors about the moon cake and asked this, I think this It is a good phenomenon that the Mid Autumn Festival, by holding the traditional activities of the Mid Autumn Festival and the Moon Festival, can gradually restore the people's understanding of the traditional culture. Some cultural heritage is far from listening to people and reading books.
