论屈赋女性形象的类型和特点

Images of Women in Qu Yuan's Poetry: Types and Characteristics

屈原赋中塑造了大量女性形象,大致可以分为远古神话中的神女、祭祀招魂中的巫女、日常生活中的凡女三种类型。远古神话中的神女带着神性和人性的双重色彩,祭祀招魂中的巫女披着虚渺迷离的神秘外衣,日常生活中的凡女闪着秀美灵动的光芒。这些类型多样、特点各异的女性形象,不仅成为屈原赋独特的文学意象,也开创了后世文人从纯审美的角度欣赏女性,并运用女性形象抒情写志的先河,具有重要的范式意义。

In his poetry Qu Yuan built a large number of female characters that can be divided into three types： goddesses in the ancient mythologies, mediums practicing necromancy in worship ceremonies, and ordinary women in the everyday life. The god- desses had both divine and human natures. The mediums were seclusive and mysterious, and the ordinary women were impressive for their shining beauty and talents. Women of different kinds and with different characteristics have become a unique literary image in Qu Yuan＇s poems, and his characterization of them is of paradigmatic significance in the history of the Chinese literature as he pioneered a tradition of appreciating women from one＇s pure aesthetic point of view and expressing one＇s emotions and ideals through images of women.
