大与小的思辩——论宋玉在大小言赋中胜出之原因

"Greatness" and "Slightness":Reasons for Song Yu's win inDayan Fu and Xiaoyan Fu

《大言赋》、《小言赋》是由襄王、宋玉、唐勒、景差参与的关于"大"和"小"的论辩。宋玉在这两场比赛中胜出,首先一个原因在于宋玉所说的"大"突破了客观的极限,而向主观层面无限扩展。其次,宋玉的描绘真切可感的传达了恐怖的美学效果。再次,宋玉描绘的"大"充满了雄霸之气,刺激了襄王,让他在面对巨人威力的恐惧中意识到自我王权力量与巨人一样伟大而感到释怀和愉悦。第四,宋玉所描绘的"大"与"小",虽然都是纯粹心灵的理解,但这种主观的领悟是可以被传达并以一种美的体验为人所接受。
