Study On The Myth Of The Origin Of Miao Art

The myth of the origin of the Miao art is one of the myths of the Miao nationality.It not only reveals the origin of ethnic art in the form of mythological expression,but also has its own inexhaustible aesthetic value.In the expression,the mythology of the origin of the Miao art always adheres to the concept of "mythology" of the origin of ethnic art.On the basis of this concept,the formation,development and inheritance of Miao art are presented in the fertile soil of ethnic mythology.The mythology is similar,simple and far-reaching,with endless flavor and unique aesthetic features.Based on the existing materials,starting from the emotional dimension of mythological texts,the thesis divides the mythological origins of the Miao art into the following three categories:namely,“Grateful Gods”,including “God Creation”/“God-giving” two parts,which means that "Art is the God indirectly participate in by the way of "affecting " or "enlightening";Second,"Commemorate the Ancestors",subdivided into "the art of cherishing the ancestors of the art"and "the art of celebrating the hero's meritorious service" two categories;Third,"sacrificial entertainment",because of the different objects of worship,there are "sacred witches,entertaining the world" entertainment art and "praying blessings,disasters" of the sacrifice of art.Although the three types of the myths of the origin of the Miao art have different emphasis on emotional orientation,the emotions are inherently unified in the spiritual culture due to the belief of the ethnic group.Therefore,the origin of the "God" to the Miao art is always a psychological background that cannot be ignored.Combining ancient and modern literature to analyze the daily life,festival ceremonies and etiquette norms of the Miao,we can also see that the mythological origin of the Miao art plays an important role in the daily behavior,ritual activities and literarycreation of the tribes.Of course,in the interaction and interaction with ethnic art or artistic activities,the sacred,mysterious and exemplary aesthetic meaning of the mythological origin of the Miao art is manifested.
