摘　　要：经过重新阐释的"神话主义"一词,是指现当代社会中对神话的挪用和重新建构:神话被从其原本生存的社区日常生活的语境移入新的语境中,为不同的观众而展现,并被赋予了新的功能和意义。这一新界定与学术界近半个多世纪以来的传统观的转向一脉相承,直接受到世界民俗学界"民俗主义"与"民俗化"等概念的深刻影响。这一概念强调的是神话传统在现当代社会中被挪用和重述的情况,目的在于使学者探究的目光从社区日常生活的语境扩展到在各种新的语境中被展示和重述的神话,将之自觉地纳入学术研究的范畴之中,并从理论上加以具体、深入的研究。神话主义与新神话主义在反思神话传统在当代的建构和生命力上有着共同的追求,但是就与神话本体的距离而言,新神话主义走得更远。“Mythologism”redefined by the author refers to the use and reconstruction of myths in con-temporary societies,when myths are taken out of the daily life of communities in which they previously existed and replanted in new contexts for other audiences and endowed with new functions and meanings.This definition corresponds with the shift of tradition scholarship since 1960s,and also receives direct influences from the discussions on the concepts of “folklorism”and “folklorization”within the field of international folkloristics.Furthermore,it is a consequential development of my former research proj ect.This concept emphasizes on the appropriation and re-telling of myth in contemporary societies,and aims to broaden the mythologists’horizon and draws their attentions from the traditional daily life of communities into those new contexts in which myths are now displayed and consumed.This concept bears fundamental commons with neo-mythologism,but the latter goes much far away from the corpus of myth itself.
