关于清代、民国时期土家族传统民间丧葬绘画的探讨

土家族的丧葬绘画是丧葬习俗中的核心内容之一。丧葬绘画跟圈腾崇拜、宗教、改土归流的汉文化紧密地结合在一起．在某种意义上是民族文化的一个综合载体。目前在研究丧葬活动过程中很少有对丧葬绘画的研究，其原因一是现存的历史文献资料缺乏。我们很难找到能够直接引用的文献资料。二是目前的学术界对该学科研究尚属空白，极少有学者涉及该领域的研究。三是该类文化现象基本发生在较为偏远的山地乡村，不便于资料的收集和整理。因而该研究尚属探索性研究。笔者力图尝试对该领域进行一定的探索性，以期进行有益的尝试。文章仅以土家族丧葬绘画为例，试析对清代、民国时期土家族传统民间丧葬绘画的认识。
