社会转型期土族婚姻家庭价值观透视

家庭体现着以两性和血缘为特征的社会关系。作为土族这样一个极其重视家庭功能的社会群体,家庭婚姻价值观既是其民族文明中最具特色、极具稳定传承性的文化元素之一,也是对社会生活变化反映最为敏锐、接受文化影响最为丰富的内容之一。我们知道,土族文化不像汉藏等民族文化以一种文字的形式为纽带而表现其民族文化的鲜明特征,从土族文化系统的形成过程看,是以其明显的复合性和开放性而显现个性。

Holy Weddings,Unholy Marriages: Christian Spouses and Domestic Discords in Early Colonial Lesotho, 1870–1900

In the Lesotho Archives in the capital Maseru, lies unreferenced, scattered files containing testimonies of Christianised BaSotho couples embroiled in marital litigations in the last third of the nineteenth century. Reading these testimonies in relation to one another, and engaging in an in‐depth qualitative examinations of the narratives embedded in the texts offers a rare opportunity to explore the texture of conjugal relationships among Christianised spouses in this period. The compelling picture that emerges is one of extreme instability of Christian marriages. We behold here conjugal lives teeming with conflicts and intrigue. Adultery accusations and spousal violence punctuated the conjugal lives of these spouses in unexpected intensity. This study concludes that after over half a century of missionising the BaSotho, evangelical missionaries seemingly had had little impact on the texture of BaSotho conjugal relations. The rampant “adultery” and spousal abuse that seemingly plagued these Christian spouses were expressions of pre‐Christian patterns that were manifestations of gendered conflicts.
