普里什文神话书写中的绿色基因

The Green Gene in M.M.Prishvin’s Myth Writing

俄罗斯作家普里什文的神话书写体现着“永恒女性”的神圣之美和“万物统一”的宗教哲学理念。他观察自然万象,研究人们的生活和心灵。在民间文化的底层,东正教与多神教交相杂糅:一面是旧礼仪派和教派信徒古老的信仰、习俗和修道精神,一面是巫师、林妖和水怪的神奇玄幻的传说。作家探索俄罗斯灵魂最内在的方面和民间信仰的根基:关系着20世纪初俄罗斯知识分子精神探索的圣城基杰什的神话天然地带有多神教的绿色基因;尚未受到现代文明冲击的人们遵循古老的生存法则与自然相依相生,神话寄寓着存在之谜和自然律法,与圣经和希腊神话存在同构关系,是俄罗斯民族心灵的原乡。

Russian writer M.M.Prishvin’s myth writing represents the divine beauty of“eternal woman”and the religious philosophy of the“unity of all things.”He observes natural phenomena and probes into people’s lives and minds.At the foundation of folk culture,Orthodoxy and polytheism are intermingled:there are the ancient beliefs,customs,and monastic spirit of the Old Ritualists and sect believers on the one hand and,on the other,there are mythical fantasies about wizards,forest demons and water monsters.The writer explores the innermost aspects of the Russian soul and the roots of its folk beliefs:the myth about the holy city of Kitezh,which is part of the Russian intellectuals’spiritual exploration in the early 20th century,naturally possesses the green genes of polytheism;the people who had not yet been impacted by modern civilization live in harmony with nature by adhering to the ancient laws of survival.The myths are intended to metaphorize the mystery of existence and the law of nature.Despite their isomorphic relationship with the Bible and Greek mythology,they are the homeland of the Russian soul.
