欧里庇得斯《美狄亚》悲剧意蕴的多维解读

Mult-dimensional Explanation on the Tragedy Meaning of Medea by Euripides

《美狄亚》是希腊悲剧诗人欧里庇得斯的重要作品。有"心理戏剧鼻祖"之美誉的欧里庇得斯在该剧中细腻地描述了美狄亚在弃妇之恨与慈母之爱的两难选择中的心灵挣扎与搏斗;美狄亚因以毁灭生命的方式实现了对伊阿宋的报复性惩罚,完成了女性最难以逾越的自我超越而成为具有超越意识的反叛英雄;在西方文学史上,美狄亚是第一位敢于向男权社会秩序发起挑战的"恶女人"形象,发出了女权主义的第一声呐喊,突破与改变了男性视野中天使型女性的传统接受视角和女性价值审判坐标;从文明冲突论的角度来看,美狄亚的悲剧实质上是东西方异质文明错位与冲突的悲剧。
