摘要
古希腊神话所蕴涵的自由精神的核心内容是神和英雄与命运的抗争。它具体表现为“与外在事物的抗争”和“与自己的肉体斗争” ,前者主要凝聚一种知识的力量 ,并通过一系列神的故事和英雄传说 ,完成了从对自然的抗争到对专制暴君的抗争的历程 ,衍生出西方最早的自由民主思想的萌芽 ;后者表现为一种意志力量 ,在英雄悲剧里表现得最为充分 ,其中有理性的思考更有非理性的命运观 ,但这种非理性在与命运的抗争中又转变为一种自我超越———通过对现实的抗争 ,把人 (神 )引向理想的现实 ,从而形成了古希腊神话自由精神中超越与世俗相融 。
The core of free will in ancient Greek myths is the defience of Gods and heroes to their fates,which concretely presents the struggle against the external while the other against the internal.The former involves the process from defience to the nature till to tyranny through a series of myths and epics with a might of knowledge,where the earliest western democracy came forth;the latter presents a kind of will which shows itself perfectly in heroic tragedy wherein there is rational contemplation and even irrational views on destiney.The irrational in defience of fate will in turn become a self_transcendency -- a struggle against the reality which leads man or god to ideal reality and formalizes the harmony between transcendency and secularity.It is also the characteristics of harmony between Romanticism and Realism.
