“唱目连”是桂西地区道公在为死者超度灵魂时诵唱的叙事性诗经《目连经》,民间把道公做法事中诵唱《目连经》俗称之为“唱目连”。经过调研发现,“唱目连”不只是单纯的法事迷信活动,从民俗文化的角度研究,它更有诸多的教育功能。这些教育功能,能起到保持社会结构平衡、维护社会秩序、约束社会成员的作用,还能为分析民族文化提供宝贵的资料。本文希望通过对“唱目连”的分析研究,可以对桂西地区传统的民族音乐文化及地方人文的研究提供借鉴。 “Sing head to head ” is the narrative poem “Tao Lian Jing” which is sung by Dao Gong in the western Guangxi for exceeding the soul of the deceased. Sing head even “. After investigation, it is found that ”singing“ is not just a purely legal cult, but also has many educational functions from the perspective of folk culture. These educational functions can play a role of maintaining the social structure, maintaining social order, restraining the members of society, and providing precious materials for analyzing the national culture. This article hopes that through the analysis of ”singing and looking even ", we can learn from the traditional national music culture and local humanities in western Guangxi.
