Beaud, Sylvie. "Masques en parade : étude d’une identité Han à la jonction du politique et du rituel : l’exemple du théâtre de Guan Suo (Yunnan, Chine)." Paris 10, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012PA100106.
Full textThe inhabitants of Yangzong, in Yunnan province, officially belong to the Han ethnic majority, and yet their ethnicity is often questioned by outsiders. The local women’s clothes, for example, tend to make them look very much like one of the numerous ethnic minorities. However, the villagers regularly reiterate their claim to Han identity through the performance of a masked opera at the New Year festival. This masked practice, named after the deified character of Guan Suo, became a major cultural expression of community identity recognized by the locals as well as the authorities. The practice was designed "national intangible cultural heritage" in 2010. Although there is consensus among locals and officials at different levels on the overall cultural value of the opera, the various actors differ in their interpretation of its significance: while the promotion of the Guan Suo Opera as a "living fossil" of Chinese culture is part of the official nationalist discourse, the Yangzong people consider the ritual opera a way to transmit their History and lay clam to their identity as Han. The banner of Guan Suo provides unity to villagers of various origins who can thus establish themselves as a cult community ritually anchored to a specific territory. This thesis interrogates these differing discourses to examine the way in which representations of identity are built and coexist as a means to reconstruct the past, act in the present and prepare the future
Gros, Stéphane. "La part manquante : échanges et pouvoirs aux confins du Yunnan (Chine) : ethnologie des Drung dans leurs relations à leurs voisins." Paris 10, 2005. http://www.theses.fr/2005PA100139.
Full textThis ethnological study of the Drung (Dulong) people aims at situating this small patrilineal tibeto-burman society of northwest Yunnan Province, China, within the context of global society and in a framework of present and past relations with neighboring societies. It thus tackles the issue of political, social, economic and religious transformations, in particular since the founding of the People's Republic of China (1949). Through the integration of a diachronic perspective with a synchronic approach, this study identifies the forces of change in the long term and reveals the symbolic logic that determinates socio-political and religious relationships in the region. A logic of want emerges in the local expressions and configurations of power. The Drung society is thus approached in terms of local recombinations and a continual process of adjustment and adaptation that allows the transmission of essential values as well as new formulations of what it means to be Drung

In fact, the process of construction and operation of this line had an influence on the society and the economy of Tonkin. The objective of this thesis is to examine the socio-economic and socio-political influences of this railway. In addition, the thesis also aims 1) to the lives of workers on construction sites in the Upper-Tonkin, 2) the profitability of the Company railways Indochina and Yunnan and 3) the role of this line throughout the Second World War

Full textComing from musicology and as a musician (piano), I have attempted to describe, analyze, comprehend and defend, the specificity of the Bai music - a cultural minority of Yunnan - its main features and the the influences it has received as of today. This work is an attempt at the crossroads of ethnography and ethnomusicology. After a brief introduction to the Baizu of Dali and the surrounding mountains, its oral language and madrine script, the inquiries in the field focused on : songs in daily life, marriage, funerals and feasts, allowing a presentation of various aspects of daily life and ritual life. Vocal music, as well as instrumental music, are then analyzed in context, (ethnography) but also the poetic and musical composition are analyzed at the formal level (ethno-musicology). Bai theater as performed by the villagers, instrumental music as well as dance are presented and analyzed. Organology and the manner to play the local instruments open the whole research. A sociological survey on the trends of today in a global world, bring the work to a close. By a pluridisciplinary approach we hope the complexity of the artistic expressions of the Bai intangible heritage is brought to light

Full textThis thesis is a priliminary approach to the Akha female shaman in China. The Akha constitutes the most important part of the national minority, Hani which is officially recognized as one of the fifty-six minorities in China. The function of Nipa is mostly performed by women and which gives them the only opportunity to participate religious activity. In the society where women are victims of inequalitiy, the Nipa has always been treated negligently. For a woman who wants to become a female shaman, she must go through three steps, and only after those steps can she become a healer. Every Nipa has her own "Spirit Master". Understanding the information about "Spirit Master", such as identity, nationality, character and the encounter situation of Nipa and Spirit master is the way for us to get into the world of Nipa deeper. Between Nipa and her Spirit Master, there is always a solid relationship, like an object and its reflection of mirror. In the state of trance, the Nipa healiers are granted privilege to move their body freely in a grotesque way. The melodies of Nipa reveal a delicacy haloed by feminine spirits. Performing as a medium between Heaven and Twilight, their chants with dance make these two separate zones encounter

Full textLocated at an altitude of 2,400 m, in the northwest of the eastern province of Yunnan, Lijiang is on the border of the Tibetan plateau. Following the 1996 earthquake and the listing of the old part of Lijiang as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, ethnic tourism was built around Lijiang, "the city where the Naxi live". At the time, this name designated an ethnic reality. The Naxi were in the majority in 1990, but by 2012 they represented 19.33% of the Lijiang population. The development of the tourism industry and its potential profits has led over the years to a strong migration of people from other minority groups and many Han people, who are now the majority in Lijiang. The policy of openness initiated by China in 1980 has encouraged the emergence of cultural tourism and the inscription of the old city of Lijiang on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1996 has accelerated the implementation of a cultural policy and the exponential tourist attendance until today. Parallel to these measures, the reaffirmation of a multinational Chinese state in the 1980s, with the creation of minorities, led to a relationship of domination with the Han. This has favored the anchoring of a hierarchical vision of the populations annexed over the centuries within commonly shared representations. These representations are also present in official speeches and in various stages of local culture.As part of its staging, the Naxi culture was gradually reshaped by both national and local actors. The central question of governance concerns, among other things, economic and cultural issues (who benefits from tourism revenue? Is it the local populations or national or foreign investors? Who are the actors in the preservation of cultural resources?). While staying in Lijiang and its surroundings, I observed different levels of tourism development: Lijiang, the epicenter of tourism, Shuhe, one of its related villages, and in the region of Baoshan, economically poor and without major tourism development. The comparative study of these three sites with different tourism development was aimed at understanding the structuring role of tourism on the Naxi culture. Extracted from elements of the Naxi culture, their staging seeks to modernize this culture and tourism appears to be the main vector to achieve this. These facts constitute a hierarchical element shared by the Naxi, because the rural/urban distinction becomes the echo of a "backward" / modern duality. As Lijiang is the epicenter of modernization, the further one goes from it, the more the qualification "backward" appears. The spectacularization of the Naxi culture also shows a logic that integrates international values (Unesco, Icomos) and sums up local culture to public practices far from the private sphere.Lijiang’s staging, which combines preservation and commodification, is created by the national government and the Naxi. The Naxi, who live essentially from the tourist industry and its economic spin-offs, are also the actors of the identity metamorphosis. They work to make their city and their culture known throughout the world. This exposure gives them relative leeway in the implemention of measures to protect their culture. More concretely, it allows them to gain the support of international recognition in their negotiations with government authorities and, at the same time, to take pride in an officially preserved culture while serving the industry

Full textSince the beginning of the history of tourism in China, the mountains have always been a place visited by Chinese tourists. For them, the mountains are not an unknown place ; they have always had various images of them linked to some special values. This led to various representations of the space among the Chinese society. With the evolution of these representations, one of the most representative forms, the landscape, has also come up since the fifth century in China. The Chinese people started to learn how to appreciate the beautiful scenery of mountain with aesthetic taste. The landscape as a spatial representation has evolved and it has also influenced the human being’s activities, just like tourism. One of the first tourist practices is contemplation of mountain landscape. These representations of mountains are not always fixed. Some new touristic activities like hiking have changed Chinese people’s aesthetic tastes Thus, this paper focuses on the interaction of the representations of mountains, especially the mountain landscape and the evolution of tourism practices, : how the representations of the mountains occur the beginning of touristic practices, which values they are attached to and how the evolution of tourism brings changes to the mountain representations in China

Full textLe paysage rural de la République Populaire de Chine s'est considérablement transformé depuis la collectivisation dans les années 50 jusqu'aux réformes de dé-collectivisation instauré par Deng Xiaoping en 1979. Au milieu des années 80, chaque ménage rural est redevenu responsable de sa propre production agricole et la sécurité alimentaire semble s'être améliorée, même dans les régions les plus reculées. Pour intensifier la transition agraire et le développement rural, l'état a commencé à la fin des années 90 à subventionner les cultures commerciales au niveau provincial, à travers sa « Stratégie de développement de l'ouest du pays ». L'objectif de ce mémoire est premièrement d'examiner l'importance des cultures commerciales subventionnées par l'état pour les agriculteurs, particulièrement issus des minorités ethniques (Yi, Hmong, Yao, et Zhuang) et de la majorité Han dans la Préfecture de Honghe, Yunnan; et deuxièmement d'évaluer les effets des phénomènes climatiques extrêmes sur leurs moyens d'existence et d'étudier les mécanismes de survie auxquels ils ont recours. Pour remplir cet objectif, j'utilise un cadre théorique incorporant les éléments clés des littératures sur les moyens d'existence durables, la sécurité alimentaire, ainsi que la vulnérabilité et la résilience à la variabilité du climat. Mes méthodes comprennent une analyse statistique des données quantitatives des récents phénomènes climatiques extrêmes dans la région et un travail ethnographique dans quatre cantons de la Préfecture de Honghe, notamment des entrevues non structurées avec les agriculteurs et semi-structurées avec les cadres locaux au cours de l'été 2011. Je constate que les cultures commerciales subventionnées par l'état ne s'accompagnent pas toujours d'une amélioration du capital financier des agriculteurs et que ces cultures sont de plus en plus exposées à de fortes précipitations et d'extrêmes températures, qui réduisent l'accès aux capitaux de subsistance, nécessaire au réinvestissement dans les cultures commerciales. Par conséquent, les agriculteurs développent des stratégies de survie et/ou d'adaptation selon leurs moyens d'existence choisis et le type de phénomènes climatiques, mais sont également affectés par leur emplacement et leur ethnicité. En somme, je remarque que l'accès des agriculteurs aux ressources est essentiellement fonction de trois variables : sociale, temporelle et spatiale ; celles-ci souvent ignorées par les cadres gouvernementaux.

(cont.) Xianshuihe-Xiaojiang fault system during growth of the southeast plateau margin. Cosmogenic ²⁶A1 and ¹⁰Be basin-wide erosion rate and burial ages indicate a background incision rate of [approximately] 0.05 to 0.10 mm/a, lower than the long-term incision rate minimum of [approximately] 0.26 mm/a. Cosmogenically-determined incision rate approximately doubles to [approximately] 0.20 mm/a in the region of maximum dip-slip displacement on the Red River fault. This thesis also develops a new cosmogenic tool for quantitative landscape analysis: using depth dependence data for multiple cosmogenic nuclides from a single site to constrain an erosion history. This method is applied in the Dry Valleys region of Antarctica.
This thesis outlines the Cenozoic development of the Red River region, exploring regional landscape evolution and tectonic accommodation of the India-Eurasia collision, focusing on the Oligo-Miocene, left-lateral Ailao Shan shear zone and the active, right-lateral Red River fault on the northeast margin of the shear zone, along which the Red River has incised a deep valley. Oligo-Miocene fluvial and alluvial conglomerates in the valley record shear zone unroofing: pervasive, syn-depositional shortening indicates transpressional exhumation. A low-relief landscape, developed in Late Miocene time, was probably uplifted in Pliocene time, triggering the incision of the Red River and isolating the low-relief landscape from modem base level. On the basis of stratigraphic data, river incision began in Pliocene time or later. Tributary longitudinal profiles indicate two-phase incision, the result of pulsed plateau growth or trunk channel adjustments to changing climate conditions. Paleo-Red River reconstruction indicates [approximately] 1400 m river incision, 1400-1500 m surface uplift and 750 m vertical displacement across the northern part of the Red River fault. Minimum right-lateral displacement on the fault is 40 km, 15-16 km of which predates river incision, plateau growth and development of other regional fault systems. Long term average slip-rate is a minimum of [approximately] 5 mm/yr. Rotation of a crustal fragment around the eastern Himalayan syntaxis, bounded on the east by the Xianshuihe-Xiaojiang fault system, causes deflection of the Red River fault, accommodated by distributed shear along strike of the Xianshuihe-Xiaojiang fault system. The Red River fault has decreased in regional importance since the initiation of the

Full textThis thesis explores the ritual systems and songs of the Daba, a class of ritual specialists and diviners among the Na of south-west China. Based on three periods of fieldwork carried out from 2004 – 2007, the thesis describes and analyses three types of ritual: the busina, a rite of veneration for lineage ancestors; the mukrabu, an exorcism rite; and the gubu, dedicated to gu spirits who represent springs. In each case, the Daba make use of their specific knowledge of long ritual processes, as well as of complex songs, to achieve various objectives. The purpose of the busina is to share food with ancestors and other villagers, mukrabu aims to exorcise evil spirits representing various forms of impurity, and finally gubu propitiates “ambivalent” gu spirits, so that they agree to cooperate with humans in the agricultural activities over the following year. By exploring the parallel unfolding and interweaving of ritual songs and practices. I draw out the principal characteristics of Daba ritual technique. In the final chapter, I highlight three ontological pairs emerging from previous descriptions and analyses. These emerge out of complex relationships between the living and the dead, between good and evil, and finally between humans and environmental entities (nature spirits). I also draw attention to the tendency towards “rehearsal” in the methods used by Na shamans vis-à-vis the opposing forces. These different methods and relationships together constitute what I call “Na dualism”

Full textTibet is the widest and highest plateau on Earth. Tectonics, climate evolution and ante-surrection geomorphology are the main factors controlling the plateau formation. In order to assess the relative influence of these factors, we study the relief evolution on the plateau edges using geomorphic analysis, sedimentology and exhumation rates based on low-temperature thermochronometry.The results show that the western and eastern plateau edges were already at high elevation at ca 35 Ma, only 20 Ma after the India-Asia collision. This favors an “en bloc” uplift model for the plateau.In western Tibet, the hydrographic network was connected to the Indus river, allowing the early development of a >1000 m amplitude relief, probably before 35 Ma. The relief was preserved due to low erosion conditions. Western Tibet was then isolated from the Indus drainage network due to the Karakorum fault slip.The relief formation in Eastern Tibet is older than in western Tibet: at ca 35 Ma, in the Jianchuan area (northern Yunnan), which was already at high elevation, was a large braided river system. This implies a moderate regional slope. It also implies a local relief further north and significant precipitations
