摘要
摘要:本文研究了等级差异和偏见如何影响缅甸中部城市精神占有仪式(nat kana pwe)社区。通过对缅甸社会中普遍存在的佛教宗教价值观、性别角色、艺术地位和经济成功等观念的研究,作者认为,等级思维规范了专业灵媒(纳特卡达)、纳特赛(锣鼓合奏)音乐家和灵媒信徒之间的社会互动。根据参与者自己的叙述,本文讨论了偏见如何有助于塑造仪式演员的地位和声望,以及他们如何能够扭转正常的权力关系。文摘:
Status, Prejudice, and Hierarchical Differences in the Communities of the Urban Burmese Spirit Cult
Abstract:This essay investigates how hierarchical differences and prejudices shape communities of nat kana pwe, urban spirit- possession ceremonies, in central Burma/Myanmar. Looking at the widespread ideas surrounding Buddhist religious values, gender roles, artistic status, and financial success in Burmese society, it argues that hierarchical thinking regulates the social interactions between professional spirit mediums (nat kadaw), musicians of the nat hsaing (drums and gongs ensemble), and spirit devotees. Drawing on the narratives of the participants themselves, the essay discusses how prejudice contributes to modeling the status and prestige of the ritual actors and how they are able to reverse the normal relationships of power.Abstract:
