Features: Currently, the cultural transformation taking place on the Chinese mainland is a highly significant, comprehensive cultural change. The understanding of the significance of this transformation and the exploration of its patterns are undoubtedly important research and thinking topics for many scholars. The historical transformation of culture in Pingfeng Village is a process of multiple timespace overlaps. The transformation of upper folk culture is not only a change in religious concepts, the transformation of various rituals, and the restructuring of time settings, but is also closely linked to economic and social development. There is a dialectical relationship between folk culture and economic and social development: on one hand, folk customs have a significant restrictive effect on economic and social development; on the other hand, the development of society and the economy also has a major impact on folk customs. Therefore, this book's research also pays considerable attention to the socio-economic study of Pingfeng.
