我国的传统节日形式多样,内容丰富,是我们中华民族悠久的历史文化的一个组成部分。
The traditional festivals in China are various in forms and rich in contents, which are an integral part of the long history and culture of the Chinese nation.
节日的起源和发展是一个逐渐形成,潜移默化地完善,慢慢渗入到社会生活的过程。它和社会的发展一样,是人类社会发展到一定阶段的产物。我国古代的节日,大多和天文、历法、数学,以及后来划分出的节气有关,这从文献上至少可以追溯到《夏小正》、《尚书》,到战国时期,一年中划分的二十四个节气,已基本齐备,后来的传统节日,全都和这些节气密切相关。
The origin and development of festivals is a process of gradually forming, imperceptibly improving and gradually infiltrating into social life. Like the development of society, it is the product of the development of human society to a certain stage. Most of the festivals in ancient China were related to astronomy, calendar, mathematics and the solar terms that were later divided. This can be traced back to Xia Xiaozheng and Shangshu in the literature at least. During the Warring States period, the 24 solar terms that were divided in a year were basically complete. Later traditional festivals were all closely related to these solar terms.
节气为节日的产生提供了前题条件,大部分节日在先秦时期,就已初露端倪,但是其中风俗内容的丰富与流行,还需要有一个漫长的发展过程。最早的风俗活动是和原始崇拜、迷信禁忌有关;神话传奇故事为节日凭添了几分浪漫色彩;还有宗教对节日的冲击与影响;一些历史人物被赋予永恒的纪念渗入节日,所有这些,都融合凝聚节日的内容里,使中国的节日有了深沉的历史感。
