《悬诗》中的比喻文化特色

The Cultural Features of Analogy in Al - Mu＇ allaqat

比喻是人们在表达思想、感情时用得最频繁的修辞手法之一，它是指“用一定的语言形式，将具有相似之处的不同事物联系起来，用其中的一个事物说明、描写另一个事物”。它主要起到说明事理、刻画形象、表达情感以及引发联想的作用。比喻植根于民族文化，受到自然环境、社会背景、文化背景、历史背景和风俗习惯的影响，因而比喻具有鲜明的民族性。《悬诗》因其精确的表达、生动的语言、真实的叙述而被视为阿拉伯古诗中的瑰宝。本文试图通过对《悬诗》中出现的部分比喻进行分析，来窥视比喻所蕴含的民族特色，从而揭示语言与文化的密切关系。
