V. Results of the survey:

Ningbo is the "hometown" of bamboo weaving. Ningbo area is rich in bamboo, so the wisdom of the working people to use this rich resource woven into a bamboo product. Ningbo bamboo weaving contains the crystallization of the people's hard work, cohesion of the rich Ningbo culture.

Ningbo has a long history of bamboo weaving, the second generation of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Jiangnan literati to Beijing to take the examination basket and food basket are made of bamboo. Yinxian, Fenghua, Yuyao mountainous areas have dozens of countryside to run the bamboo weaving factory bamboo weaving workers, can skillfully use the gabion and gabion, the preparation of a variety of gods and god-shaped cool Xiaozhuo, the interest of all kinds of animals, and the traditional cans, baskets, boxes, trays combined, made of chicken cans, ducks tray, owl box, etc., both practical and ornamental, and become a good gift for friends and relatives.

Bamboo handicrafts are divided into fine silk handicrafts and coarse silk bamboo handicrafts. Different styles of bamboo weaving works are exhibited in the traditional skills block, both the long history and skillful Qing Shen bamboo weaving, and Liu's bamboo weaving, which combines modern fashion with traditional Chinese culture and craftsmanship, drawing on a wide range of strengths.

The bamboo weaving process can be roughly divided into three processes: starting, weaving, and locking. In the weaving process, the warp and weft weaving method is the main. On the basis of the warp and weft weaving, can also be interspersed with a variety of techniques, such as: sparse weaving, inserting, wearing, cutting, locking, nailing, tying, set, etc., so that the pattern of the woven color variations. Need to match the other color products with dyed bamboo or bamboo wire inserted into each other twisted to form a variety of contrasting colors, bright and bright patterns.

Six, the investigation of the experience:

The investigation is my use of free time on weekends back home, went to the ancient village of Xijiang field shooting. This trip to harvest a lot.

In fact, to be honest, I did not know that our hometown craft of bamboo weaving has been included in the intangible cultural heritage, and I did not even know about it. This time, I realized that although I am a Ningbo citizen, I don't know much about the traditional culture of my hometown, so I will pay more attention to the traditions and culture of my hometown in the future. In the process of shooting the video, we talked with Master Ye Liangkang.

(Ye Liangkang is currently the only heir to the intangible cultural heritage of craft bamboo weaving in Ningbo, and his craft bamboo weaving project is listed on the municipal intangible cultural heritage protection list. "At the age of 17, I began to learn how to do bamboo weaving, and it's been 47 years now." (The old man's persistence, dedication and love for bamboo weaving has infected many people.) Because of the same family name, I learned by chance that my ancestors were from the same village as Mr. Ye, what a marvelous destiny! I couldn't help but feel proud of my surname "Ye". Mr. Ye told us with a smile on his face that he finally had a successor for his 47-year old craft. Tongxi Township, Tong Shifeng, the principal of the elementary school know that the bamboo weaving process is facing the inheritance of the dilemma. After the dilemma, in the name of Dongshan Village declared Yinzhou District, the first intangible cultural heritage inheritance base, and will be based in the city elementary school. At the same time, the school funded more than 50,000 yuan to establish a craft bamboo weaving showroom and production room, and set up a full-time art teacher Zhu Shuangyang as the leader of the bamboo weaving heritage group. From September 2009 onwards, Ye masters will spend half a day every week into the city elementary school, hand in hand to teach 10 "apprentices" do bamboo weaving. From this incident of Master Ye, I reflected: not only bamboo weaving, how many traditional handicrafts are facing the crisis of loss in Ningbo, not to mention China? So as a contemporary college students, we, the task of protecting traditional culture is a long way to go!

The main purpose of this survey is to systematically form the text of the rural New Year's Day customs in the Northeast to show them, as a way to stimulate people to pay attention to New Year's Day customs, but also for the cultural loss of alarm bells.

A rural area in the Northeast region

Object of the survey:

Middle-aged and elderly people in the rural areas

Scope of the survey:

On the taboos during the New Year's first month in the rural areas, as well as the weather conditions, the diet of the meanings given to.

I grew up in the Northeast, has been living in this region, for the region's customs have not cared, since studying in the field only to find that each region has its own unique human customs, especially the New Year's Eve is even worse, the difference between the north and south regions is particularly obvious, for example, in the southern region of Fujian Province, the New Year's Day, do not eat dumplings on the thirtieth day of the New Year, the first day of the year does not pay tribute to the New Year also do not go to the relatives, collectively waited until the second day of the New Year to be The differences between the north and the south are especially obvious. In the Sichuan region, dumplings are not eaten on New Year's Eve, but rather soup dumplings and their homemade hot pots. China's culture is profound and profound, just because of the different customs and culture of each region to frame a colorful picture of folklore. The following is an overview of the Northeast New Year's Eve social practice survey report.

In my hometown there is such a saying, the first month of the taboo cut hair, cut hair square maternal uncle, meaning that the first month of the cut hair on their uncle no good. The first month of the new year is a day of celebration, some people say that if you do a matchmaking during the new year, this is not a happy addition to the happy? But in the Northeast region is not allowed, matchmaking has the meaning of asking for bad luck, so it is forbidden to do matchmaking in the first month. At the same time the new month is also not allowed to buy shoes, buy shoes and "buy evil" homophonic, that is to say, to bring the evil home, is an omen of bad luck. A New Year's month everywhere hidden in the New Year's "organs" a little inattention will be tricked. From the first to the fourth day of the first month, it is forbidden to use needles and threads indiscriminately, but on the fifth day of the first month, you can use them, which is called sewing and breaking, meaning that the trivialities and shortcomings of the past year are all sewed up. In our new year here, the weather conditions are also particularly concerned about, if the weather from the first day to the first six are sunny, then it is a sign of prosperity in the new year, six animals, and vice versa, disaster constantly. Some of these customs seem to have become people's hope for the new year, and every day they look forward to the sun, full of confidence and hope for a better life.

In the Northeast during the first month of the diet also has a rich meaning, the first three days of the first month is called the crop will, if the day to eat dumplings, in the new year, grains, grain warehouse. The fifth day of the first month is known as Yuanbao Day, and if you eat dumplings on this day, you will be rich and prosperous in the new year. The seventh day is known as the "human seven days" this day to eat noodles to predict the new year, adults and children in good health without disease and suffering.

These in the simple but the New Year's custom has been subconsciously become the hope of people's lives. When people follow it without realizing it, they also have a better life in the future

a yearning, which generates motivation to create a life to create happiness. The adjusted report is short and plain, but for me, who has been living in this environment, I have already discarded it before I did the survey report, so this survey report is a kind of revision of my own attitude towards customs and culture. At the same time, the systematic collection of information on rural New Year's Eve in the Northeast, our simple New Year's Eve culture into the text, as a way to inspire more people, to pay attention to New Year's Eve, pay attention to the ordinary culture around us, to defend the native culture, to avoid a large number of cultural loss.
