《离骚》与《芙蓉女儿诔》中“情”的比较

A Comparison of“Sentiment”in Li Sao and Elegy for the Hibiscus Maid

《芙蓉女儿诔》是《红楼梦》第七十八回的一篇诔文,因其在艺术形式上与《离骚》相承继,在“情”的表达上有相同处,但在“情”的内核上却大为不同,颇值得注意。二者最打动人的地方在于所表达之情。而“情”的本质的不同却标志着对中国文化道德价值、国家观念、个体自由等方面的反省与突破。

Elegy for the Hibiscus Maid,an elegy in Chapter seventy-eight of Hongloumeng,is noteworthy because it is the successor of Li Sao in art form,and has something in common in the expression of sentiment,but is quite different in the core of sentiment.The most touching part of both lies in the feelings they express.However,the difference in nature of“sentiment”marks the introspection and breakthrough of Chinese cultural moral value,national concept,individual freedom and so on.
