Abstract
Abstract:The slide guitar's history in Burmese culture is interlaced with narratives that bind together themes of romance, modernization, royal patronage, and colonial maritime economies. Drawing from fieldwork with the last Burmese slide guitar master, Man Yar Pyae U Tin, this paper details the instrument's adaptation to Burmese musical tonalities and aesthetics and its role in the performing arts renaissance of the early twentieth century. This ethnographic project connects to a discussion on the framing of cultural exchange and the rhetoric of terminological choice, promoting a symbolic, functional, and material approach to understanding the slide guitar's journey through Asia.
摘要:滑梯吉他在缅甸文化中的历史与浪漫、现代化、皇室赞助和殖民海洋经济等主题交织在一起。本文通过对缅甸最后一位滑音吉他大师Man Yar Pyae U Tin的实地考察，详细介绍了滑音吉他对缅甸音乐调性和美学的适应，以及它在二十世纪早期表演艺术复兴中的作用。这个民族志项目与文化交流框架和术语选择修辞的讨论联系在一起，促进了一种象征性的、功能性的和物质的方法来理解滑动吉他在亚洲的旅程。
