神龙生人:九隆神话文本叙事的视角

Divine Dragon Begets Man: Perspective of the Text Narrative of the Jiulong Myth

著名神话学家田兆元教授曾说:“神话史是民族精神之河,它承载着这个民族的理想、信仰与传统,凝聚着丰富的情感。”神话确实承载了太多的精神层面的意蕴,各民族关于九隆神话,在文本叙事中找寻中国文化传统的因子,从显性中找出隐蔽的文化、历史、社会表征,给我们提供了精神的滋养和动力的源泉。

Professor Tian Zhaoyuan,an acclaimed expert on mythology,once observed:“The mythology history is the river of a nation’s spirit that carries the ideals,the beliefs and the tradition of the nation and is thus rich in emotions.”Mythology is indeed rich in spiritual connotation and that is why all the peoples are exploring the text narrative of the Jiulong Myth for elements of traditional Chinese culture,expecting to identify implicit cultural,historical and social symbols in the explicit text.Their efforts can serve us as good spiritual nourishment and driving sources.
