都市社火 街頭行列의 형성과 그 선행 모델

Abstract

At this paper, I wanted to explore what were some of the extracurricular factors that influenced the formation of the street parade of “City Shehuo(社火)” through the visual data including the paintings and “stones with pictures(畫像石)”. As a result, I could find out that the time when the street parade of Shehuo(社火) was formed in China’s city and began to develop was the Song(宋) period, and before that there were two representative models of the street parade of Shehuo(社火). In terms of the content, Baixi(百戲) performances on a large square of the East Han(東漢) era became a model. In terms of street marches, Buddha’s march of the North and South dynasties(南北朝) period became a model. A closer look showed that the Baixi(百戲) performances on a large square could actually be a spectacular performance, with various techniques introduced from the Xiyu(西域) added to the tradition of Jiangwu(講武). And Buddha’s march was also a form handed down from Buddhism in India. From a macroscopic perspective, I believe that the street parade of the “City Shehuo(社火)” during the Ming(明)and Qing(淸) era is the result of the long process of convergence with China’s homegrown tradition and the Xiyu(西域)’s culture.
