哭嫁作为土家族民俗特色之一，承担着两种实质情感，一是土家少女成年离家的悲痛，二是作为喜俗流程的一部分而引发的狂欢庆贺。这种狂欢特性在哭嫁婚俗中往往是引而不发，通过族群的精神共鸣和无意识参与加以表现。现代哭嫁极难通过传统婚礼觅踪，更多是作为民俗表演，成为各大景区吸引游客的经济手段。文章以鄂西土家族婚礼哭嫁习俗与市场哭嫁表演作为研究对象，在情感来源、表现手段与参与状态上对二者的狂欢化特征进行比较，从而对鄂西土家族哭嫁蕴含的复杂情感有进一步认知。
Crying for marriage, as one of Tujia folk customs, bears two kinds of substantial emotions: one is the grief of Tujia girls leaving home as adults, and the other is the carnival celebration triggered as part of the process of celebrating customs. This kind of revelry is often not expressed in the custom of crying for marriage, which is expressed through the spiritual resonance and unconscious participation of family groups. It is extremely difficult to find a traditional crying wedding. Crying wedding is more a folk performance to attract tourists to scenic spots. This article takes the wedding crying custom of Tujia people in western Hubei and the crying performance as the research objects, and compares their revelry characteristics in emotional sources, performance means and participation status, so as to further understand the complex emotions contained in the wedding crying of Tujia people in western Hubei.
