Some time ago, the Department of Culture and Tourism of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region announced the list of representative inheritors of the seventh batch of representative projects of intangible cultural heritage at the autonomous region level, and a total of 28 people in Guilin City were selected, ranking first in the region! As early as mid-September 2021, in the fifth batch of national intangible cultural heritage representative projects, Guilin rice noodle making technology and Yao oil tea customs were successfully listed. So far, a total of 6 intangible cultural heritage projects in our city have been selected into the list of national intangible cultural heritage representative projects.
Why has Guilin's "intangible cultural heritage" inheritance achieved such impressive results? What are the characteristics of the team of non-hereditary inheritors in Guilin? Guilin's "intangible cultural heritage" inheritance of the future road, how to move forward... With these questions in mind, the reporter tried to find out the answer by interviewing the staff of the Guilin Intangible Cultural Heritage Protection and Inheritance Center, the representative inheritors of the newly promoted district-level intangible cultural heritage representative projects, and ordinary citizens.
Good news: 28 new district-level "intangible cultural heritage" inheritors have been added
"Huang Xuexue, congratulations, your name has been included in the list of representative inheritors of the seventh batch of representative projects of intangible cultural heritage at the autonomous region level." In early January, Huang Xue, who was busy making Lipu taro button meat at a banquet, received a good news call from the staff of the Lipu Municipal Bureau of Culture, Radio, Television, Sports and Tourism.
Along with the name of Huang Xuejie, there are 27 other Guilin people who are included in the list of representative inheritors of the seventh batch of representative projects of intangible cultural heritage at the autonomous region level. These newly added representative inheritors of the autonomous region-level intangible cultural heritage involve six categories, including traditional drama, qu art, traditional skills, traditional medicine, traditional art, and folklore.
A few days ago, the reporter saw the notice of the Department of Culture and Tourism of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region on announcing the representative inheritors of the seventh batch of representative projects of intangible cultural heritage at the autonomous region level in the Intangible Cultural Heritage Department of the Guilin Intangible Cultural Heritage Protection and Inheritance Center (hereinafter referred to as the Ministry of Intangible Cultural Heritage). Looking at the attachment behind the notice, the reporter saw that Guilin City added 28 representative inheritors of the seventh batch of autonomous region-level intangible cultural heritage representative projects, and the new number ranked first among the cities in the region with absolute advantages. At this point, the number of representative inheritors of intangible cultural heritage at the autonomous region level in our city has increased to 106.
Non-genetic inheritors at the autonomous region level are important bearers and transmitters of intangible cultural heritage, and have mastered the rich knowledge and exquisite skills of intangible cultural heritage. We have reason to believe that this batch of new non-genetic inheritance projects and non-genetic inheritors will add fresher strength to the work of inheriting and promoting excellent traditional culture in Guilin.
Highlights: Guilin's non-hereditary inheritors show a trend of rejuvenation
Looking at the list of representative inheritors of the seventh batch of representative projects of intangible cultural heritage at the autonomous region level, the reporter saw that 3 of the 28 people selected in Guilin City were "post-90s", in addition, there were 1 "post-85" and 7 "post-75".
The team of non-hereditary inheritors in Guilin shows a trend of rejuvenation, which makes many citizens who have learned of this news have some doubts while being happy: young people, especially the "post-90s", and the traditional old treasures of "intangible cultural heritage" are still a problem, how can they bear the heavy responsibility of inheritance?
Take Huang Shuxue, the representative inheritor of the Lipu taro button meat making technology, as an example: he is only 31 years old this year, and the skills of making Lipu taro button meat for several generations in his family are very famous in the local area, and he has heard about it since he was a child, and has a good understanding and mastery of the production technology and cultural origin of Lipu taro button meat. "Although Huang Xuexue is young, his time in the grinding process of Lipu taro button meat is not short, and he even has more advantages than some representative inheritors of intangible cultural heritage projects who have been halfway out of the family." A staff member of the Ministry of Intangible Cultural Heritage said.
Li Yun, director of the Literature, Art and Intangible Cultural Heritage Unit of the Lipu Municipal Bureau of Culture, Radio, Television, Sports and Tourism, told reporters that she saw more hope for non-genetic inheritance from the "post-90s" Huang Discipline. "The first is that he loves this skill, and the second is that he is young and willing to combine the characteristics of the times to 'reform and innovate' the intangible cultural heritage projects inherited." These characteristics of his are more likely to help the inheritance and development of local 'old treasures' and 'old traditions'. ”
The reporter checked the list of representative projects of the seventh batch of municipal intangible cultural heritage in Guilin and learned that among the 56 representative inheritors, there are 5 "post-90s". After a period of time, this group of municipal non-genetic inheritors will successively become non-genetic inheritors at the autonomous region level and even at the national level. It can be said that the trend of rejuvenation of the contingent of non-genetic inheritors in Guilin has been "unstoppable".
Exploration: Why can Guilin's "intangible cultural heritage" inheritance work be continuously successful?
Why has Guilin's "intangible cultural heritage" inheritance work been able to achieve continuous results?
As we all know, Guilin is one of the first batch of historical and cultural cities announced by the State Council. The city is rich in intangible cultural heritage. How to excavate intangible cultural heritage, how to find suitable intangible cultural heritage items, and suitable representative inheritors are the top priorities of the "intangible cultural heritage" inheritance work. In recent years, under the guidance of national policies, Guilin has carried out the construction of a system for the protection of the Representative List of Intangible Cultural Heritage in depth. Guilin Has invested a lot of manpower and material resources to basically establish a system for the protection of the representative list of intangible cultural heritage at the national, autonomous regional, municipal and county levels. In the excavation of intangible cultural heritage projects, the declaration of inheritors, and the creation of other non-genetic inheritance platforms, a fairly complete ecological chain has been formed.
In order to let the "treasures" left by these ancestors emit more brilliant brilliance in the spring breeze of the new era, Guilin Has been committed to the work policy of "protection first, rescue first, rational utilization, inheritance and development", and sorted out and declared projects with greater impact. Up to now, the city has listed 6 representative projects of national intangible cultural heritage, 105 at the autonomous region level, 207 at the municipal level, and nearly 600 at the county level; The construction and completion of 42 autonomous region-level intangible cultural heritage protection work platforms (including 7 inheritance demonstration households), 1 autonomous region-level intangible cultural heritage poverty alleviation employment workshop, 3 autonomous region-level traditional craft workstations, and 30 municipal intangible cultural heritage protection work platforms have been completed. At the same time, Guilin City has also strengthened the team of "intangible cultural heritage" inheritors through various efforts such as project census.
The team of "intangible cultural heritage" inheritors has grown, and how to make these inheritors recognized at all levels has become an important "link" for the declaration work.
It is understood that in the seventh batch of autonomous region-level non-genetic inheritance declaration stage, a total of 48 representatives in our city have made declarations, which is obviously more than the number of declarations made by other cities in the region. "The 'large' number of declarations is based on the expansion of the team of 'intangible cultural heritage' inheritors in our city." Pang Jianning, a staff member of the Intangible Cultural Heritage Department of the Guilin Intangible Cultural Heritage Protection and Inheritance Center, said.
Pang Jianning opened a completed "Recommendation Declaration for Representative Projects of Intangible Cultural Heritage at the Autonomous Region Level". The reporter noted that the declaration is divided into several major items, of which the first "basic information of the project" includes more than a dozen contents to fill in, and the entire completed declaration form has a total of more than 8,000 words. Such a declaration takes several months from the beginning to the final completion. Many applicants for intangible cultural heritage items are "only doing and will not express", and the staff must go to the scene to communicate with them, and continue to help the declarants to accurately express and standardize the language in the process of filling in the report until they are completed.
"All the materials, whether at the municipal level or the autonomous region level, we are required to do it in accordance with the national standards." All material content must be based on solid fieldwork and literature combing to draw relevant conclusions or results, so as to better show the historical and cultural heritage of these projects with more standardized words. Pan Xuemei, vice minister of the Ministry of Intangible Cultural Heritage, said that the rigor and standardization of the entire declaration process can even be comparable to academic papers. The purpose of this is to improve the quality of the declaration and help the successful declaration of the city's intangible cultural heritage projects.
"The reason why I have successfully completed the declaration of representative inheritors of intangible cultural heritage at the municipal and district levels is very much related to the patience and continuous guidance of the intangible cultural heritage declaration staff." Liang Zhiqiang, a representative inheritor of Guilin's rice noodle making skills who has just been included in the list of the seventh batch of non-genetic inheritors at the autonomous region level, said, "Behind the successful declaration, the staff who helped us declare are indispensable. ”
Outlook: How will Guilin's "intangible cultural heritage" inheritance work move forward?
Looking forward to the future, how will Guilin's "intangible cultural heritage" inheritance continue to advance? Different respondents gave different ideas and suggestions.
Over the years, Liang Zhiqiang, as a representative inheritor of Guilin's rice noodle making skills, has passed on his traditional rice noodle skills to more people by opening rice noodle shops, training classes, and studios. In his view, as a non-genetic heir, in addition to enjoying the aura brought by this honor, it is also necessary to inherit and carry forward the intangible cultural heritage projects that he has mastered through practical actions.
The inheritance of intangible cultural heritage is the inheritance of people, and representative inheritors, as important bearers and transmitters of intangible cultural heritage, play a vital role in the process of protecting, inheriting, promoting and revitalizing intangible cultural heritage. Mr. Gao, a staff member of the Ministry of Intangible Cultural Heritage, believes that after the successful declaration of intangible cultural heritage projects, it will effectively improve the effect of non-genetic inheritance by continuing to pay attention to the representative inheritors of intangible cultural heritage projects and give them some policy help and support. In addition, he also believes that after the successful declaration of intangible cultural heritage projects, these projects should be developed in moderation, "so that these cultural traditions derived from life can be better preserved in our lives."
Mr. Jiang, a citizen living in Qixing District, has been paying close attention to the declaration of intangible cultural heritage in Guilin for many years, and has also actively participated in some experience activities of intangible cultural heritage projects. He said that letting more intangible cultural heritage projects enter the lives of ordinary people is a "correct way to open the 'intangible cultural heritage' treasure box."
Whether it is to continue to promote the construction of the team of non-genetic inheritors, or to carry out the protection of intangible cultural heritage in many ways, or to strive to let more "intangible cultural heritage" enter the lives of the people, they are providing more possibilities and brewing more wonderful things for telling the story of Guilin and doing a good job in the inheritance of Guilin's "intangible cultural heritage".
Opinion: It is everyone's responsibility to cast a new era of Guilin's "intangible cultural heritage"
Guilin's "intangible cultural heritage" inheritance work, the achievements are obvious to all. For the macro vision of how to cast a new era of Guilin's "intangible cultural heritage", relevant scholars, industry insiders, etc., are full of expectations in the expression of their respective views.
Xie Fei, a professor at the School of Culture and Communication of Guilin Tourism University, said in an interview that the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China once again emphasized the need to "promote the creative transformation and innovative development of China's excellent traditional culture" (hereinafter referred to as the "two innovations" policy), and proposed to "dig deep into the ideological concepts, humanistic spirit and moral norms contained in China's excellent traditional culture, combine the requirements of the times to inherit and innovate, and let Chinese culture show its permanent charm and the style of the times." In her view, adhering to the "two innovations" policy is also the direction of efforts to create a new era of Guilin's "intangible cultural heritage".
She said that in recent years, Guilin has made many gratifying achievements in the protection and inheritance of intangible cultural heritage. At the same time, there is still a lot of room for development in the inheritance and development of Guilin's intangible cultural heritage. In the end, how to let Guilin's intangible cultural heritage be inherited and developed, in fact, can not only stay in the inheritance of these invisible and intangible ancient technologies and experiences, nor can it just stay in the hard work, but also in combination with the development of the times, think about how the intangible cultural heritage is integrated into modern social life, and creatively expand the development path and development space of "intangible cultural heritage".
We can learn from the development experience of "intangible cultural heritage" projects in the same region. For example, the development of Guilin lacquerware, which is an intangible cultural heritage at the autonomous region level, is quite distinctive. Guilin lacquerware is the only precious cultural heritage in guangxi's ancient lacquerware varieties that has been restored, and there are currently special group enterprises that integrate Guilin lacquerware with other products. This is actually with the help of the power of some large enterprises, so that the "intangible cultural heritage" products on a broader stage. We can also look at other cities across the country and learn from the experience. Take the traditional handicraft blue dyeing of Our "neighbor" in Guangxi Province, Qiandongnan Prefecture, Guizhou Province. In recent years, Qiandongnan Prefecture has fully combined blue dyeing art and culture with local poverty alleviation, cultural governance, and tourism industries, and built a diversified development pattern of intangible cultural heritage. Not only did it keep the nostalgia, but it also made the ancient blue dye "live".
She believes that adhering to the "two innovations" policy of "creative transformation and innovative development", the inheritance road of Guilin's "intangible cultural heritage" will become wider and wider, and the more "lively" it will be.
Li Yun, who has been engaged in the protection and inheritance of intangible cultural heritage in counties and districts for some years, believes that we all have the responsibility to inherit intangible cultural heritage.
She said that whether it is Guilin rice noodles, Gongcheng oil tea, etc. in the national intangible cultural heritage, or the Yao costumes in the autonomous region-level intangible cultural heritage, the production technology of Lipu taro button meat, the guilin tuan fan making technology, etc., in fact, they have come from a long history, but they are so close and peacefully integrated into our ordinary lives. However, if we do not pay attention to and pass on these intangible cultural heritages that are no longer distant from our lives, they are likely to disappear inadvertently in the dust of history. At that time, what we lose will no longer be a technology, an experience, but a traditional art that cannot be reproduced, and it will be a great loss of human civilization.
In recent years, with the attention of the state and the government to non-genetic inheritance and protection, more and more people have paid attention to and participated in intangible cultural heritage. However, the protection and inheritance of "intangible cultural heritage" is not the mission and responsibility of some people. If we want these "intangible cultural heritage" to enrich our lives and enrich our history forever, everyone must take action, and everyone should also have the ability to do their part.
