道教文化视域下的柳永艳情之作

Liu Yong's Amorous Masterpieces from the Perspective of Taoist Culture

北宋词人柳永向以词风俚俗而著称,他创作的大量艳情词更是词坛一道奇观。柳永词的近三分之二是艳情之作,历来被视为"淫媟之语",而罕有探讨其缘由。其实,柳永的思想受道教影响很大,其艳情词具有浓厚的道教房中文化意蕴。柳永艳情词的性描写几乎都化用仙道意象,所体现的两性观念、性爱心理都和道教房中术存在契合之处。

Liu Yong, poet of the Northern Song Dynasty, was famous for his wording and vernacular style, and his large amounts of Cis have become a marvel in the Ci fields. Nearly two-thirds of his Cis were on amorous themes, always treated as ＂obscene words＂ and rarely being studied on their origins. In fact, Liu Yong was deeply influenced by Taoism, so his amorous Cis contained profound connotations of Taoist sexual culture. His depiction of sex mostly employed images of immortals and Tao, embodying the unity between the concept of men and women, sex psychology and Taoist sexual art.
