| Han Yuefu was a kind of comprehensive performing art,which included poetry,music,dancing,and singing.Thousands of years later,what we can see only are some simple clues of the records of music and performance today.In today’s subject classification,the yuefu,as a part of the han dynasty poetry,has already entered the scope of literature,and frequently been called as the "yuefu poems".However,we cannot ignore the fact that Han Yuefu was used as a comprehensive art in han dynasty。This way of existence has a profound impact to its text and literature characteristics.So we have to trace its way of performing to obtain a kind of correct and comprehensive understanding of the poems and the art.This paper put the yuefu songs on a big background of performance,make full use of the unearthed cultural relics,and research the Han Yuefu systematically.Although the research is impossible to fully show the prototype and the whole picture of the Han Yuefu,we hope to be able to get some breakthrough and progress in the study of Han Yuefu.The introduction part of the thesis discusses the basic problems such as Han Yuefu,performance,the unearthed cultural relics.Then it summarizes the academic achievements about the Han Yuefu research for the current,especially about the yuefu performance research and the achievements gained in combination with the unearthed relics.On this basis,it introduces the research space,research significance and research method.The first chapter of this paper focuses on the plot performance research of Han Yuefu There were many stories,pictures,songs on the same theme.As the text of female story,Lie Nv Fu should be one of the important materials of Lie Nv Zhuan.The "Lu Qiu Jie Woman" story should be the record of singing.The singing form of"Qiuhu Xing" should be that there was one lead singer,and others accompanied.The singer need to imitate the two roles and their dialogue and made dramatic performance.The whole show was a combination of entertainment and the glorification of moral behavior.In the Han Yuefu songs,there were many special songs about birds on behalf of the love of the hero and heroine.In the love storiesthere were many fragments about birds and these stories were also used to sing or tell.The songs about birds were not telling the stories directly,but also could be a part of a story,which were sang before or after the telling.The second chapter is the unearthed cultural relics and the study on the Performance of the han dynasty ritual songs.The ancient ritual and music culture get a lot of inheritance and development in han dynasty which has a lot of ritual songs.An Shifang Songs and Dengge had been played on a huge scale.Tangshan lady’s An Shifang Songs is used as sacrificial music and sometimes used for treats.The research on the Ancient Emperors Ritual Music of the han dynasty fully proves that metal and stone instruments were often used in the playing of the songs of the Suburban Imperial Sacrificial Rites.There are some contradictions on Ceremony music of Han Dynasty in the handed-down documents of han dynasty.The Ceremony music of Han Dynasty hadn’t declined,but had formed a new system which got some criticism from the ministers,but became the mainstream of society at that time.Two songs about horse in the Han Dynasty Jiaosi songs were praying for the war victory which led to the acquisition of territories were praying for the immortality and aspiring to celestial beings.This kind of euphemism expression was closely connected with the emperor himself in the poetic temperament.The unearthed cultural relics showed the performance of Nuo songs and why the Nuo songs were sung by the children.The han stone picture showed the performance of the funeral and wedding songs of Han Dynasty.The unearthed cultural relics shows the the performance of the red phoenix.The third chapter of the thesis focuses on the unearthed cultural relics and yuefu performances.We will analysis the form of performances when Xianghe songs were sung from the stones of Han dynasty:two songs,music and song,two musics,etc.dance performances mainly included singing and dancing in the same time,singing and dancing being separated,imitating performance,comprehensive performance."Pai song ci" is a kind of rap performance songs in han dynasty,which could been showed by onr person or four persons.The fourth chapter of the thesis focuses on the the introduction and research about Han Yuefu performance venues.The kinds of Han Yuefu are very bundant,and the forms are varied which can be adapt to the different performance requirements:in home,in the courtyard,in the square,on the high building.The entertainment characteristics of yuefu from the performance Venues had an important influence on the text of yuefu and the characteristics of yuefu.The fifth chapter of the thesis focuses on the costumes of performance.Costumes are the important part of the yuefu performance.The han dynasty has reached a quite high level in this respect,which make the yuefu performance better.There was an affinity between Han Dynasty and the the Long-sleeve Dance.The unearthed cultural relics showed the the Han Yuefu Performance of disguising animal,including Zonghuixianchang,elephant dance,Huang Gong of East Sea,etc.In short,with the help of the unearthed cultural relics,we have got much important harvest in the research of the performance of yuefu poetries,for example,the inner link between yuefu poetries,the intuitive understanding about a lot of yuefu poetries performance forms,the speculation of the songs which had no lyrics record,the analysis of the cultural significance of some performances of some performance elements.But because of the lack of the professional knowledge obout vocal music,instrumental music,performance and the contingency of the unearthed cultural relics’appearance,some research about the han dynasty poetries performance need be continued and be pushed further. |
