讲座简介:
公元250年-公元900年期间的墨西哥和中美洲古玛雅象形文字文本代表了被欧洲殖民前的美洲最重要书面语料库。留存面世的大多数文本都镌刻在石头上。但我们知道当时已有丰富的书籍文化,只是流传下来的很少。文本的制作、维护和展示是皇室宫廷画家和雕塑家的工作,他们首先认为自己是非常合格的工匠,其精湛技艺体现在书法精妙的文本作品上。雕刻和绘制文本被认为是一种与奉献仪式相伴的神圣行为。这些文本中的很大一部分被当做原始的古老知识,这些知识通过神明的力量进入这个世界,并由抄工们传递到当下。
The hieroglyphic texts of the Classic Maya of Mexico and Central America (250 CE - 900 CE) represent the most important written corpus in the Americas before the European invasion. Most of the texts preserved to us are carved on stone. However, we know that there was also a rich book culture, of which only a few copies have survived. The production, maintenance and presentation of texts were the domain of painters and sculptors at the royal courts, who saw themselves first and foremost as highly qualified craftsmen whose mastery manifested itself in calligraphically sophisticated text artifacts. The carving and painting of texts was considered as a sacred act accompanied by rituals of dedication. A large part of the text holdings was probably regarded as primordial, ancient knowledge that came into the world through divine powers and was transferred by the scribes into the present time.
