摘要
水族有自己的传统民族文字,也有丰富多彩的文字起源神话。这些神话有不同的类型,但又蕴含着统一的叙事结构,包含了水书来源、利用水书斗法、水书受损、形成反书等元素。水族文字起源神话反映了水族先民创造文字时的一些情况和他们对于文字起源的观念。
The Shui people have their own traditional characters with wonderful myths.These myths are of various types with uniform narrative structure,including the origin of the Shui characters,the conflicts between the Shui character creator and saints,the damage done to Shui Scripts,and the formation of reverse writing of Shui characters.It is assumed that the tales show some of the ancient Shui people＇s social conditions and concepts in creating their own language.
