• Abstract: In the late 1980s and early 1990s, there was a bottleneck in Japanesefolklore. In order to break the deadlock, the third generation of Japanesefolklore scholars, led by Shimamura Takanori and Yutaka Suga, proposed a newtheory of Japanese folklore research by focusing on the concept of vernacular.They redefined “folklore” through vernacular and used vernacular as a researchmethod, i.e., to study “folk” from the perspective of vernacular. On this basis,this paper examines the Bonnbori Maturi in Japan from the perspective ofvernacular. It is found that the birth and development of the Bonnbori Maturihas reconstructed the Inheritance, breaking the explanatory framework ofthe folklore theory of Inheritance. At the same time, unlike the “top-down”approach of the government and local organizations to revitalize the localeconomy, the Yuwaku-Onsen Street has adopted a “down-top” approach torevitalize the economy by keeping everything as it is and not overly promotingthe anime. 20世纪80年代末至90年代初，日本民俗学曾有过一段瓶颈期。为了打破僵局，以岛村恭则、菅丰为首的第三代日本民俗学者着眼于vernacular的概念，提出了日本民俗学研究的新理论。他们通过vernacular重新定义了“民俗”，并将vernacular作为一种研究方法，即从“vernacular（俗）”的角度研究“民”。在此基础上，本文从vernacular的视角来研究日本雪洞灯祭。研究发现，雪洞灯祭的诞生与发展重构了“传承”，打破了民俗学传承母体论的解释框架，是一种vernacular式的祭祀活动。同时，与政府和地方机构“自上而下”振兴地区经济的方式不同，汤涌温泉街采用了一切保持原样、不过分其宣扬动漫原型地的做法，以vernacular的方式“自下而上”地实现了振兴经济的目的。
