Ritual: How Seemingly Senseless Acts Make Life Worth Living
從政治、宗教,而至體育活動我們都能看到當中存在各種不同的儀式。今屆奧運的開幕儀式更突顯了人類活動的儀式感,並也引起了各種立場之間的爭議。儀式到底於人類的意義是甚麼?一位先驅人類學家帶領讀者踏上一段引人入勝、經過深入研究的旅程,穿越人類儀式的豐富掛毯,展示我們最不合理的行為如何以及為何成為我們成功的關鍵驅動力。 儀式是人類文化史上最古老、當然也是最神秘的線索之一。它提出了一個深刻的悖論:人們將儀式視為最重要的,但很少有人能解釋為甚麼它們如此重要。顯然,毫無意義的儀式遍及每一個有記載的社會,從握手到咒語,從欺辱到遊行。在我們學會耕種之前,我們聚集在巨大的石頭寺廟裡舉行複雜的儀式和典禮。然而,儘管儀式存在於每種文化中,並且幾個世紀以來幾乎沒有變化,但它們的邏輯仍然是一個謎。 在 “Ritual: How Seemingly Senseless Acts Make Life Worth Living” 中,探路科學家 Dimitris Xygalatas 帶領我們在人類行為的這個陰暗領域進行一次啟發性的旅行。憑藉著尖端技術並借鑒廣泛學科的發現,他對我們在世界上的地位提出了一個強有力的新視角 。在生日派對和加冕典禮中,在默默的祈禱中,在火行和可怕的成年儀式中,在人類生活的所有令人眼花繚亂的多樣性中,儀式揭示了將我們聯繫在一起的深刻而微妙的機制 。 “Ritual: How Seemingly Senseless Acts Make Life Worth Living” 一書的內容對於非專業讀者來說是非常容易理解的。 xxxxxxxxxx 儀式是人類文化史上最古老的線索之一。是的,這提出了一個深刻的悖論:人們將儀式視為最重要的,但很少人能解釋為甚麼它們如此重要。顯然,毫無意義的儀式遍及每一個有記載的社會,從握手到咒語,從欺辱到遊行。在我們學會耕種之前,我們聚集在巨大的石頭寺廟裡舉行複雜的儀式和儀式。然而,雖然儀式存在於每種文化中,並且幾個世紀以來幾乎沒有變化,但它們的邏輯仍然是一個謎。 在 “Ritual: How Seemingly Senseless Acts Make Life Worth Living” … Continue reading
