楚辞“山鬼”形象探源

ON THE TYPE OF “SHANGUI”IMAGE IN CHUCI

楚辞“山鬼”原型研究可谓众说纷纭,但均无法以《九歌·山鬼》文本中的人物形象印证。笔者立足文本,从地下发掘资料与楚辞时代广泛的文化背景着眼,认为“山鬼”形象既非源于地祇鬼怪,也非源于具体传说人物,而是泛化的楚人女性先祖,其原型应为“三苗”原始部落女性首领,在楚秦争战的屈原时代始得跻身于《九歌》鬼神之列。

All sorts of ideas on the type of about ShanGui in ChuCi can't be confirmed by the figure of the poem shangui. According to the poem, setting about the data from the earth and wide culture background in ChuCi times, I think that Shangui is not a goddess on earth, not a ghost, and not a concrete legend maid, but a female ancestor of chu nation. It's to say, shangui's type is a sanmiao tribal female chief. It was just the time of the Qin and Chu war that shangui was written in Jiuge .
