爱情的本真与向善之美——《诗经·召南·野有死麇》主题考

Authenticity and Goodness of Love——The Exploration of Ye You Si Jun in South of Shao,Book of Poetry

中国古代爱情诗源远流长,先秦时期《诗经》达到了爱情诗创作的第一次高潮。《诗经》中大部分爱情诗遵循"不淫不伤"的出发点,体现礼义与君子风范。而《野有死麇》因其对性爱的大胆描写和对礼的轻视而成为《诗经》中饱受争议的爱情诗之一,从古至今对其主题及存在合理性的讨论延绵不绝。通过对这些观点看法进行了一定的归类和对比研究,探索一系列关键词意义及其背景,得出此诗反映了西周初年推行周礼初期未被完全替换的野合习俗,宣扬了"发乎情,止乎礼"的审美观念的结论,阐明了此诗是一篇以"夫妻野合"为题材的婚恋诗,同时还探究了此诗被收入《诗经》"二南"的合理性。

China has a long tradition of love poems, whose first culmination arrived at the Pre - Qin period. Most love poems collected in Book of Poetry, follow the principle of avoiding licentiousness and sentimentality, reflecting an educated nobleness. Ye You Si Jun, or literally In the Wild There is a Dead Antelope, is one of the most con-troversial among love poems in Book of Poetry for its daring depiction of sexual intercourse and contemptuous to-wards social conventions, and has aroused a comprehensive and enduring debate over its theme and the rationale of inclusion in Book of Poetry. First, this paper categorizes and compares the existing opinions, and then turnes to its key words and background, which led to the conclusion that the poem reflected the practice of the uwilderness in-tercourse^ convention in the Western Zhou dynasty when it was not yet annihilated by dominating ethics of Zhou, and demonstrated the aesthetic taste of “ start with love and end with virtue” , This paper further shows that the po-em 5 s theme is wilderness intercourse of a couple, and discusses the rationale that this poem is included in South of Shao, which constitutes a revered chapter of Book of Poetry, that is, the Two South, together with South of Zhou.
