海岛上的萨福:中日现代文学里的古希腊女诗人

Sappho on the Island:The Greek Poetess in Modern Chinese and Japanese Literatures

本文探讨了古风时代的希腊抒情诗人萨福,如何进入20世纪中国和日本的文学想象,在被引介、被模仿、被重塑的过程中,如何对话当地的文学传统,面对当地正在转型的社会,更与当地正处于现代和传统之间的读者、作者们互动,由此成为中国和日本现代文学的一个有机组成部分。这个历程也侧面见证了中国和日本各自的现代文学传统形成的过程,以及中日之间的文学交流。

This paper explores how Sappho,a lyric poet of ancient Greece,entered the literary imaginations of the twentieth-century China and Japan.In the process of being introduced,imitated and reshaped,Sappho participated in the dialogues with the national traditions,the transforming societies,and people who stood on the threshold between the past and the present.She thus became an integral part of modern Chinese and Japanese literatures.Her journey in East Asia,on the other hand,also manifests the making of the tradition of modern Chinese and Japanese literature respectively,as well as the literary exchanges between China and Japan.
