端午节传统习俗被人淡忘 吃和游成过节主题|端午节|粽子_新闻资讯

　　新华网武汉6月1日电 (记者廖君 朱文辰)今年端午节三天假期，武汉市民王小姐早就计划好，和家人到长阳游玩一下。“好不容易遇到假期，过节都是其次，重要的是家人聚在一起休息。”王小姐说。

　　和王小姐一样，众多“80后”“90后”对端午节的关注焦点大都集中在两点：吃什么样的粽子和假期去哪里玩。2008年，端午节成为国家法定节假日.2009年，湖北秭归、黄石，湖南汨罗，江苏苏州三省四地联合将中国端午节申报成世界非物质文化遗产。

　　作为中国的四大传统节日，端午节形成了多种民俗，如佩香囊，门户悬艾、菖蒲，挂雄黄袋，穿五毒衣、老虎肚兜，饮菖蒲、雄黄或朱砂酒，沐浴兰汤，龙舟竞渡、祭粽、食粽等。如今，端午节的传统习俗早已被人淡忘，文化味也越来越淡，“吃”和“游”逐渐成为过节的唯一主题。

　　“历年端午节的活动给你留下印象最深的事情是什么”？吃各种各样的粽子”“粽子实在是太好吃了”“妈妈会煮粽子，学校食堂会卖粽子，公司会发粽子”……记者走访武汉多家高校，得到的答案大多是“吃粽子”。

　　一些“90后”大学生说，大家从课本上都知道端午节的起源，但对节日的许多习俗都知之甚少，而且多年来也一直没有参加过端午节的活动。华中农业大学大三学生小刘告诉记者，自己对小时候课本里端午节的印象越来越淡，只知道屈原、赛龙舟、吃粽子，其他的都忘记了。就是最简单的包粽子，家里没有一个人会包。

　　一些市民说，设置端午节假期的初衷是为了引起人们对传统文化的重视，现在看来，现状离初衷越来越远。相反情人节、圣诞节等洋节趋之若鹜，传统节日的商业味儿越来越浓，文化味儿越来越淡。

　　国际节庆协会中国区副主席彭新良表示，端午节节日气氛逐渐变淡首先是由端午节本身性质决定的。相对于春节、中秋节，端午节的风俗跟现在生活相隔较远”。

　　“对外开放后，伴随着西方发达市场经济进来的是他们的文化。他们以影视书籍等产品的形式进入中国，被年轻人所接受，而端午节自身传统文化没跟上我国现代化的过程。”彭新良说。

　　民俗专家表示，在端午节期间，民俗活动是传承文化的有效载体，应提倡和引导市民积极参与各种各样的民俗活动，通过这些活动的开展，弘扬端午文化，回归到屈原的爱国、为民、向善的精神上来。此外，文化学者要通过挖掘端午节文化里贴近现实生活的元素，唤醒老百姓对传统文化的认知。
