《卫风·氓》“子无良媒”句意及其叙事意图

The Meaning and Narrative Intention of the Sentence"You have no go-between"in Odes of Wei

《诗经·卫风·氓》是我国传世的第一首弃妇诗,有着杰出的艺术成就。千百年来有关《氓》的注解、研究相伴而生,尽管如此,诗中仍存有诸多疑点。诗歌第一章“子无良媒”一句的释义目前主要有两种:第一种为氓没有媒人。第二种为氓有媒人,却没有好的媒人。结合历代学者的观点,立足《氓》文本,可知“子无良媒”的意义当为“子无媒”。并据此深入分析该句的叙事意图,推进对于诗篇文本的理解。

The Book of Songs:Wei Feng of the Faithless Man is the first abandoned woman poem passed down in China,with outstanding artistic achievements.For thousands of years,annotations and research on the Faithless Man have accompanied each other,but there are still many doubts in the poem.At present,there are two main interpretations of the sentence"You have no go-between"in the first chapter:the first is that there is no matchmaker for the the Faithless Man.The second kind:the Faithless Man have matchmakers,but they don't have good matchmakers.Combined with the views of scholars of previous dynasties and based on the texts of The Faithless Man,we can see that the meaning of"the Faithless Man without good media"should be"the Faithless Man without media".On this basis,we can deeply analyze the narrative intention of the sentence and promote the understanding of the poetic text.
