Abstract:

Puxian Opera，recognized as the “living fossil of Southern Opera from the Song and Yuan dynasties，” features the core term “puppet Jie” in its performance system，serving as a dynamic testament to the integration of ancient artistic traditions.This paper systematically examines the etymological origins，morphological characteristics，and performance paradigms of “puppet Jie” from a multidimensional perspective，while delving into its rich cultural connotations.Our research indicates that “puppet Jie” originated from the creative transformation of puppet theater techniques into Puxian Opera.Its unique aesthetic pursuit of “string manipulation sensation” and “puppet charm beauty” not only encapsulates the historical memory of the evolution of opera art but also profoundly reflects the folk belief in “divine-human co-entertainment” in Fujian，the dialectical aesthetic thinking of “puppet transcendence，” and the eternal vitality of opera art in its continuous self-renewal through imitation and reconstruction.
