到海上去:传统春节与海上主题(二

无可置疑的是,单单是我们现在正一年又一年在过的传统春节,其中所有的仪式,所有凝固的形式,所有的内容,都是基于农耕文明的,基于土地的依赖,包括对故乡回忆,对亲人的信赖,等等都是属于农耕文明中心化的力量。

今天,我再次沿着,莆田兴化人过传统春节的时候,要在正月初四重补上过除夕的这一传统,回溯1562年左右的那段历史。

在那段历史中,我找到了一个冲突。就是来上海上的去中心化力量,与明朝的农耕文明的中心化力量之间的冲突。

这一段的冲突空间,刚好就在于我从小生活的这个海边小城市的地域里。这一段长达几十年的力量冲突,后来留下了“海禁”“片板不得出海”“海域划界”等等的坚壁清野,然后是闭关锁国,然后就是错过了一个时代“大航海时代”。

It is indisputable that only the traditional Spring Festival, which we are celebrating year after year, all the rituals, all forms of solidification and all the contents are based on farming civilization, based on land dependence, including memories of our hometown, trust in loved ones, and so on, all of which belong to the centralization of farming civilization.


Today, when I celebrate the traditional Spring Festival along Putian again, I have to make up for New Year's Eve's tradition on the fourth day of the first lunar month, dating back to the history of about 1562 years.


In that history, I found a conflict. It is the conflict between the decentralized power coming to Shanghai and the centralization force of the farming civilization in the Ming Dynasty.


This period of conflict space happens to be in the area of this small seaside city where I grew up. This period of power conflict, which lasted for decades, later left behind the strong walls of the "sea ban", "no sea ban,"maritime demarcation," and so on, followed by the closure of the country, and then missed an era of "great sailing era."
