Title: Practice of Identity Signification:An Anthropological Analysis of Miao Song Square Performance in Xiangxi
Abstract: Influenced by such multi-layered cultural logics as society,culture,capital and media,Miao songs originally existing in the traditional Miao living space have changed their traditonal cultural functions and got rid of their thick colour of cultural customs and placed themselves in the metrolipolitan sqaures which are symbolic of modern cultural forces.Having changed in the formula of lyricism,form of performance,content of performance which are quite different from the tradtional genres,Miao songs in Xiangxi have taken on the features of stage performacne and mass aesthetic culture and acquired the cultural significance of square entertainment.Simultaneously,Miao songs in Xiangxi have remoulded a kind of new subject awareness,realized the unification of culture and aestheticism and ultimately a modern fancy in displacement of traditional and modern time-space condensation as well.
