摘要

转型节日中的传统表达方式与个人转型密切相关。然而，现有的研究主要集中在探索刺激非常规自我表达的环境因素，而忽视了个体通过这种表达实现自我转化的过程。本研究以火人节为例，探讨了个体如何通过非传统的自我表达实现个人转变，从而解决了这一理论缺口。具体来说，本研究利用了来自火人节官方Instagram账号的视觉材料，并运用巴赫金对怪诞意象的分析来探讨非传统的自我表达与个人转变之间的联系。研究结果表明，个人转变是通过非常规自我表达的持续变革实践发生的，包括外部和内部转变。此外，个人转换在集体参与中茁壮成长，使个人能够在转换实践的集体景观中培养他们独特的转换风格。本研究通过探索非传统的自我表达实现个人转变的途径，有助于对转型节日进行新的理论认识。它也提出了巴赫金怪诞理论在这一背景下的创新应用，增加了现有的知识体系。此外，本文还为节日组织者提出了切实可行的建议，以提升参与者的节日体验，促进他们的个人转变。关键词:变革性节日变革性经验变革性实践怪诞火人节披露声明作者未报告潜在利益冲突。本研究得到国家自然科学基金资助[批准号:42171221]。

Grotesque and transformative practices: a new understanding of transformational festival experience

ABSTRACTUnconventional expression styles in transformational festivals closely link to personal transformation. However, existing research has mainly focused on exploring the environmental factors that stimulate unconventional self-expression, neglecting the process through which individuals achieve personal transformation via such expressions. This study addresses this theoretical gap by investigating how individuals achieve personal transformation through unconventional self-expression, using Burning Man as a case study. Specifically, the study utilises visual materials from Burning Man's official Instagram account and applies Bakhtin's analysis of grotesque imagery to probe the link between unconventional self-expression and personal transformation. The findings indicate that personal transformation occurs through continuous transformative practices within unconventional self-expression, encompassing both external and internal transformation. Furthermore, personal transformation thrives on collective participation, enabling individuals to cultivate their unique transformation style within the collective landscape of transformative practices. The study contributes to a new theoretical understanding of transformational festivals by exploring the pathways to personal transformation through unconventional self-expression. It also presents an innovative application of Bakhtin's theory of grotesque in this context, adding to the existing body of knowledge. Additionally, practical recommendations for festival organizers are made to enhance participants' festival experiences and foster their personal transformation.KEYWORDS: Transformational festivaltransformational experiencestransformative practicegrotesqueBurning Man Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis work was supported by National Natural Science Foundation of China [grant number 42171221].

期刊介绍： Journal metrics are valuable for readers and authors in selecting a publication venue. However, it's crucial to understand that relying on any single metric provides only a partial perspective on a journal's quality and impact. Recognizing the limitations of each metric is essential, and they should never be considered in isolation. Instead, metrics should complement qualitative reviews, serving as a supportive tool rather than a replacement. This approach ensures a more comprehensive evaluation of a journal's overall quality and significance, as exemplified in Current Issues in Tourism.
