The Imperial Manchu Ritual Worship of Heaven Ceremony was first revised in the12 th year of Qianlong(1747),and was translated into Chinese in the 42 nd year of Qianlong(1777)and incorporated into the Siku Quanshu,in the 28 th year of Daoguang(1848),it was compiled by Pu Nian and formed the The classic example of Manchurian dance to Gods for Votive,and later in the Republic of China,a new version was formed by referring to various versions of the Jin Jiu-jing.The Imperial Manchu Ritual Worship of Heaven Ceremony is the only Shamanism book compiled by the official presidency.It has always been valued by academic circles and is an important reference for the study of Qing court rituals.This thesis comprehensively uses the research methods of anthropology,linguistics and history to analyze and study the literature.The article includes an introduction,three main chapters,conclusions and appendices.The introduction explains the research value,research purpose and research significance of the thesis,and makes a detailed review of the relevant domestic and foreign research so far.The first chapter discusses the version and text translation of The Imperial Manchu Ritual Worship of Heaven Ceremony.The publication of The Imperial Manchu Ritual Worship of Heaven Ceremony has always been considered by mainstream academic circles to be out of the norms of the rituals of Manchuria.However,judging from the situation of its version,the content of its norms is actually not much.There are significant differences in the expressions of "sacrifice",rituals and gods between the Manchu original of The Imperial Manchu Ritual Worship of Heaven Ceremony and several different Chinese texts.The second chapter studies the "shangyu" part of The Imperial Manchu Ritual Worship of Heaven Ceremony.To clarify the important position of the The Imperial Manchu Ritual Worship of Heaven Ceremony in the palace religious life.The Imperial Manchu Ritual Worship of Heaven Ceremony is a textual arrangement of the sacrifice ceremony of the gioro family that has been passed down by word of mouth.The purpose of this vast project was to build the orthodox position of Manchu rule by improving the sacrificial status of the gioro family.At the same time,through the interpretation of the "Shangyu" Manchu,it is also found that the original meaning of The Imperial Manchu Ritual Worship of Heaven Ceremony has changed in the process of translating into Chinese.From the key words involving supernatural existence and human behavior,It seems that Manchu culture has a fine understanding of these concepts.The third chapter compares and analyzes the relationship between the The Imperial Manchu Ritual Worship of Heaven Ceremony and the folk version.This chapter chooses a relatively complete version of the folk text of the gioro hala(family),and compares it with the The Imperial Manchu Ritual Worship of Heaven Ceremony from the pre-sacrificial preparations,the ritual process in the sacrificial process,and the processing after the sacrificial ceremony.It is found that there is a difference in the conditions of sacrifice between court sacrifices and folk sacrifices,but there is no substantial difference between them.The royal sacrifices are luxurious and complicated,and the folk sacrifices are rough and simple.However,in the key procedures,the two completely overlap,and there is no redundant or omitted part.Therefore,it can be seen that the The Imperial Manchu Ritual Worship of Heaven Ceremony for court sacrificial rituals is at most limited to the reconfirmation and textualization of its details,and its essential content has not changed.From a deep level,the opposition between the roughness and simplicity of folk sacrifices and the luxury and complexity of the The Imperial Manchu Ritual Worship of Heaven Ceremony shows that there is a process of sacrificial rituals from figurative to symbolic.This change is probably caused by the symbolic treatment of the original sacrificial behavior in the sacrificial process.This change also shows logically that the The Imperial Manchu Ritual Worship of Heaven Ceremony did not have a substantial influence on folk sacrifices.
