白族本主崇拜与民族性特质的辩证关系探析

摘要

The early 1930 s, some anthropologists represented by Mead began to study the relationships between culture and individual , and put forward a conclusion that culture can cultivate the "basic per-sonality"of each nation , which brought out a great impact on psychology and anthropology .The local de-ity-worship of Bai is a kind of belief with many characteristics , so to use Mead's theory to explain the di-alectic relationships between the traits of Bai and the Deity -worship will be of much importance to un-derstand and develop the diversified ethnic culture .%20世纪30年代初，以米德为代表的一些人类学家开始研究文化与个人关系，得出文化塑造各民族“基本人格”的结论，在心理学和人类学界造成很大影响。本主崇拜是白族的特色信仰，将米德的理论用于解释其与白族性特质的辩证关系，对理解和发展中国少数民族多元文化有重要的借鉴和实践意义。
