Jiarong Dance Guozhuang: Dances, Rituals and Ethnic Expressions at the Foot of the Mordor Mountains
by Li Fei
About This Novel
At the foot of the Mordo Mountain, the Jinchuan River and the Jinchuan River meander through the Jiarong Tibetan area. In this ancient land, there are the mysterious Mani in Jiaju, the dancing Zhuo and Badi in Suopo and the middle road, and the sacred and solemn Dalga at Taiping Bridge... These vivid local ethnic traditions and the well-known Chinese term Tiaoguozhuang are not only the difference between my pronoun and his pronoun in folklore, but also cannot be easily understood as an analogy between a general term and an individual term. The generic relationship between proper names, and the difference between them is fundamental, is a set of ethnic cultural expression patterns practiced by a community called Jiarong between the sacred and the secular: in the physical practice system represented by song and dance, Jiarong's historical memory and current reality can be connected, and the differences and similarities, distance and proximity between me and him can be distinguished. For Jiarong people, Tiaoguozhuang is not a cultural display under the gaze of tourists, but one of the fundamental ways to understand and express tradition and self, how to adjust identity in the practical context of social processes, and move from the past to the future.
