试析楚人的思想对漆器的主要影响

A Study of the Formative Influences of the Chu Culture on Lacquer

楚文化杂糅百家又独树一帜,汉文化是在楚文化的基础上发展起来的,汉代漆器艺术更是与楚漆器艺术一脉相承。楚国漆器产量之多、品种之全、制作之精、分布之广都远远超过了前代。楚国漆器反映了楚人的思想文化,其中主要有三方面对漆器艺术影响最为深远:一是崇红尚黑;二是凤鸟崇拜;三是多元信仰与炽热的巫风。

Being extremely unique and original in itself, the Chu culture integrated a hundred and one Chinese sub-cultures on the basis of which the culture of the Han Dynasty evolved and developed, and the art of lacquer in the Han Dynasty and the art of lacquer in the Chu region are all the more closely related. The lacquer produced in the state of Chu was larger in quantity, more comprehensive in variety, more elaborate in its craftsmanship and vaster in distribution than that in the former generations. The lacquer of the state of Chu reflects the thoughts and culture of the people of the state of Chu about its lacquer art. It is especially far-reaching in the following three aspects： its worship of the colors of red and black~ its worship of pheonixes; and its multi-beliefs and its zealous worship of witchcraft.
