比较文学近年来在国内学术界堪称“热门学科”,许多民族民间文学工作者也纷纷在自己的研究领域对这一新课题作出有益的尝试,给民族民间文学研究注入了一股新的活力。本期发表的两篇比较研究的文章,都出自少数民族研究工作者之手,写得都有一定特色,我们希望能起到开拓读者视野的作用。本刊将继续为采用新方法,研究新课题的民族民间文学工作者提供园地。 In recent years, comparative literature has become a “hot subject” in the domestic academic circles. Many national folk literature workers have also made helpful attempts in this field in their fields of study, injecting a new vigor into the research of national folk literature . The two articles published in this issue are all from the hand of ethnic minority researchers. All of them are written with certain characteristics. We hope that they will play a pioneering role in readers’ horizons. This publication will continue to provide a place for national folk literature workers to adopt new methods and study new topics.
