摘要
新文化地理学提倡关注文本中的地理。运用内容分析与文本分析相结合的方法对《更路簿》与潭门地方性的建构和再现进行案例分析,探究文本与地方性之间的关系和作用。研究发现:①内容记载是文本与地方性作用的首要维度,独特地方性内容的再现是地方性挖掘的必要前提;②价值表征是文本参与地方性构建的象征基础,文本的价值基于且超越于文本的内容,与其所处的社会环境密切相关;③象征解译是文本参与地方性构建的重要方式,文本的意义价值体系不仅内含创作者或创作群体的语气,还包括"他者"群体对于文本价值的认知和阐释;④文本与地方性建构和再现之间的作用是相互的,地方文化符号和品牌的形成反之可促进对文本的保护。
New cultural geography advocates that geography exists in the text. This paper regards 13 transcripts of Genglubu found in Tanmen Town as the research text, and uses the content analysis method as well as the textual analysis method to do the research. This paper presents a case study which analyzes the relationship between 'Genglubu' and the construction and reproduction of Tanmen’s placeness through three dimensions. Here are some findings as follows. First, fishermen in Tanmen have geocoded the South China Sea’s seascape in their own distinctive way according to the records in 'Genglubu' which constitutes the unique local knowledge system of the text. Then, 'Genglubu' was created by local fishermen in Tanmen on the need of navigation in ancient times. Nowadays, this document material has been regarded as the representation of the local knowledge about the South China Sea accumulated by the fishermen in historical period. What’s more, different groups of people identify and interpret 'Genglubu' in diverse ways. The meaning of 'Genglubu' not only plays a role in the fishermen’s identity construction, but also makes itself a cultural symbol and takes part in the reproduction of Tanmen’s local landscape. There are some conclusions about the new relationship or the interaction between text and placeness enlightened by this case study as follows: Firstly, the text content itself is the primary dimension while analyzing how the text takes part in the construction of placeness. Only the distinctive content recorded in the text can make it unique as one of the local characteristics, and a tool to identify local place’s personality.Secondly, the meaning system of text is the essential element to construct and reproduce the placeness of a place. Whether the text has historical or cultural meaning is based on, rather than determined by its content. The value of the text is not just the literal denotation, but a special connotation in a certain social context. Thirdly, the interpretation of the text’s symbolic meaning by different groups of people is an important way for people to make use of the text in constructing and reproducing the placeness. It is worth noting that the value system of the text not only contains the voice of the inventor or creative group, but also involves how other people or cultural groups identify, recognize, and interpret the text meaning. Finally, the text interacts with the placeness’ construction and reproduction. The text with local distinct historical records can construct and represent the placeness, and the development of placeness impacts the meaning of local text conversely. As a cultural symbol or a local historical attraction, the text makes a difference in contributing to the local economic development. In return, the text can gain more attention from local groups and be better protected due to its economic value.
