器以载道:中国古代妆奁的符号表意与文化内涵
Vessels as Carriers of Dao: Semiotic Significance and Cultural Connotation of Bridal Trousseaus in Ancient China
【摘要】 中国传统器物设计承载着深厚的文化内涵,体现了“器以载道,物以传情”的造物哲学。器为载道之体,道为载器之主。古代器以载道的造物思想把器物目的、寓意、功能、设计科学完美地融合应用。本研究以中国古代妆奁为研究对象,运用符号学理论与物质文化研究方法,通过案例分析、文献调查等手段,从形制、材质、纹饰3个维度切入,依据古代造物原则深入解析妆奁背后所蕴含的“道”包括社会组织形态、精神文化内涵中的自然观、伦理观以及自我认知等层面。通过这一研究,不仅能够揭示妆奁造物原则所体现的社会价值与文化价值,更能为妆奁设计理论研究、中国古代造物文化研究提供新的视角,对探索具有中国特色的当代造物方式与思想体系,以及推动妆奁类家具的创新发展都具有重要的学术价值和现实意义。
【Abstract】 Traditional Chinese artifact design embodies profound cultural significance,reflecting the philosophy that“vessels carry the Way,objects convey emotion”. In this view,the vessel serves as the carrier of the Way,while the Way acts as the essence that inhabits the vessel. This ancient concept,which integrates purpose,symbolism,function,and design science,is investigated in this study through the lens of ancient Chinese bridal trousseaus,employing semiotic theory and material culture research methods. Through case analysis and documentary investigation,the underlying “Dao”within these trousseaus was explored in terms of form,material,and ornamentation. Anchored in traditional craft philosophy,the analysis delved into aspects such as social organization,spiritual culture informed by naturalistic and ethical perspectives,and cultural self-perception. The research not only reveals the socio-cultural values embodied in the craftsmanship principles of bridal trousseau,but also provides fresh perspectives for theoretical studies on trousseau design and ancient Chinese material culture. It carries significant academic and practical value for exploring contemporary Chinese approaches to craft philosophy and fostering the innovative development of trousseau-inspired furniture.
