早期象形文字中的体育意蕴

Sports Connotation in the Early Hieroglyphs

通过对早期岩画、古文献典籍中的身体活动元素进行分析和解读,发现人类早期生活过程中大量身体活动的场景记录了早期人类体育起源的过程。岩画、图画和大部分象形文字中所记录的身体运动的内容再现了当时的生活世界。同时,以身体运动为主体内容的岩画等象形文字,集中通过狩猎、舞蹈和早期的征战来表现,体现了早期文字中丰富的体育元素和身体文化的意蕴。早期身体运动的丰富性又为象形文字提供了多样的字形构造的参照系和符号化的字形对象。身体活动的具体构架又通过图画转变为符号的过程进行了从简单模仿到技术动作定形的思维加工。

Through the analysis of the physical activity elements in ancient rock paintings,oracle bone inscriptioins and ancient classics,we found that a large amount of records about physical activities in early human＇s life revealed the original of human sports and represented the way of life.Oracle bone inscriptioins,with physical exercise as its main content,reflected rich connotation of sports and physical culture through the description of hunting,dance and battle.Meanwhile,the variety of physical movements provided reference for the construction of Chinese characters.The thinking process was finished from imitation to movement techniques by turning pictures into symbols.
