Cultural Hybridity of Traditional Festivals in Macao: The Fusion and Change of Chinese and Western Festival Cultures
Abstract
This paper focuses on the phenomenon of cultural hybridity in traditional festivals in Macao, and deeply discusses the integration and change of Chinese and western festival cultures in Macao. By analyzing the origin, development and present situation of traditional festivals in Macao, this paper reveals the mutual infiltration and influence of Chinese and western cultures in festival activities. It is found that traditional festivals in Macao not only retain the essence of Chinese traditional culture, but also incorporate elements of western culture, forming a unique cultural landscape. This paper aims to provide a new perspective for understanding the multicultural coexistence in Macao and provide reference for cultural integration in other regions.
