《太平御览》中的大禹资料研究

A Study of Materials on Da Yu in Tai Ping Yu Lan

大禹以圣贤君主、治水英雄形象成为历代文人墨客吟诵的对象。宋代的《太平御览》作为类书在收集各类图书时,围绕中心词——夏禹,收录了与之相关的36种书籍。透过这些摘选的引文可以让我们有两种收获:对"他者"——大禹形象的认识意义,对"主体自身"——即宋以前人们对大禹形象的认识持批判性态度。大禹形象的塑造集中在神化和道德方面,宋以前人们心中的圣君被谶纬和道教神化到神秘迷信的地步,为了维系稳定的封建统治,大禹又被涂抹上浓烈的道德色彩。

Da Yu,who is a sage monarch and hero regulating flood,has been an object of ancient poems.In Song Dynasty,＂Tai ping Yu lan＂,as a comprehensive reference book,collected thirty-six kinds of books related to the central word--Xia Yu.From the selected citation,we can see the materials written from two different perspectives：from the ＂other＂--the cognitive significance of the image of Da Yu;from the ＂main body＂--people＇s critical attitude towards Da Yu before the Song Dynasty.The image of Da Yu is mainly shaped in myths and morals.Before the Song Dynasty the sage king had been deified by people in the mystical Confucianist belief and the Taoism.In order to maintain the stability of feudal rule,Da Yu was endowed with strong moral spirit.
