浅析中英诗歌中时间意象的影射表达

Expression analysis of time images in Chinese and English poetry

古人云:"诗以言志",因此诗歌可以表达各种主题,时间就是其中之一。由于时间是一种较为抽象的概念,因此诗歌在表达这类主题时,经常使用将抽象的时间同具体的事物,即所谓的意象,相影射来进行表达。所选用的具体事物可以是作者本人(自我),还可以是世间万物(空间)。而这种影射还可分为三个角度:即个人性、历史性和宇宙性角度。中英诗歌皆有此种影射表达时间的运用,但在意象的选择上略有不同。

The poetry can express a variety of subject, time is one of themes. Because of the time is an abstract concept, therefore poetry expression in this theme, often use the abstract time with the specific things, the so-called image, alluding to express. The selection of specific things can be the author(self), also can be the world(space). This mapping can be divided into three aspects: personal, historical and universal angle. English poetry is the expression to use of time, but in the choice of image is slightly different.
