皮影戏是中国古老的民间戏曲形式之一,起源可追溯至西汉时期,距今已有两千余年历史。艺人以牛皮或羊皮精心雕刻、上色的人物剪影,在灯光照射下于白幕后操作,用唱腔、乐曲和说白结合的方式演绎历史故事、民间传说与社会百态。皮影戏因其光影交错、人物灵动而被誉为“电影的祖先”。2011 年,中国皮影戏被列入联合国教科文组织《人类非物质文化遗产代表作名录》。如今,传统皮影艺术在保护中融合现代舞台科技,与动画、数字投影等形式跨界合作,吸引越来越多年轻观众关注并参与传承。
参考翻译
Chinese shadow puppetry, one of the country’s oldest forms of folk theatre, traces its roots back to the Western Han dynasty—more than two millennia ago. Artisans carve and paint figures from cowhide or sheepskin; when illuminated from behind, these silhouettes come alive on a translucent screen. Accompanied by singing, music, and narration, performers recount historical epics, folk legends, and scenes from everyday life. Praised as the “ancestor of cinema,” shadow puppetry captivates audiences with its interplay of light and motion. In 2011, it was inscribed on UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Today, while safeguarding traditional craftsmanship, shadow-play troupes integrate modern stage technology—collaborating with animation and digital projection—to engage younger generations and ensure the art form’s vibrant future.
