摘要
关于碉楼的起源和功能,在学术界既有的研究中,目前占主导地位的是战争论派,他们认为是战争导致这种建筑的出现,其主要功能是防御敌人的进攻;而综合论者试图将宗教信仰和古典功能主义糅进战争论中,进而认为,是战争和宗教信仰这两者的结合,产生出碉楼的审美意义。本文踵继并发挥另一个一直处于微弱的或者隐藏状态的传统观点认为,碉楼的产生不是战争,也不是生物机体的需要,而是基于当地族群的文化象征系统关于世界的观念和具体历史场域互动的结果;它是当地人想象和创造世界的方式。
The origin and function of the blockhouse has long been studied, and there mainly exist two schools of arguments. One dominant school argues that it is war that leads to the building of blockhouses because they are military fortification for defensive firing or observation, while the other school tries to combine religious belief and ancient functionalism with the explanation of defense by arguing it is the combination of war and religion that produces the aesthetic meaning of blockhouse. This article attempts to develop the idea that was almost hidden in history. It holds that the origin of blockhouses is not war, neither is it the need for protection or aesthetics, but is out of the cultural symbolic system among the local ethnic groups of people, the result of which represents the interaction of their world view and the concrete historical locations. The blockhouse is a means of the local people to imagine the world.
