试论项羽的复仇心理

On Xiang Yu' Vengeful Mentality

特殊的家庭背景给项羽幼小的心灵埋下了仇恨的种子,他所成长的楚文化环境、仇恨秦王朝的强烈氛围、从小所受的教育,使这颗种子生根、发芽、长大,形成了强烈地复仇心理。复仇心理使他在反秦斗争中勇猛、顽强、坚定、果敢,成为推翻秦王朝的最大功臣;复仇心理又使他动辄“屠城”、院俘,伤害无辜,成为潜伏于其政治生命中的恶瘤,这个恶瘤在楚汉战争中爆发;复仇心理也使他变成了政治上的低能儿,该出手时优柔寡断,毫无政治远见,失去了由自己重新统一中国的天赐良机。

The special family background sowed the seeds of hostility in young Xiang Yu' spirit. The cultural environment of Chu Dynasty in which he grew up and the social atmosphere in which public had enmity attitudes towards Qin authority, and also the education he received in his childhood generated a strong psychology of vengeance which made him brave, staunch and firm in his fighting against the Qin Dynasty. But sometimes he 'massacred the people' ,buried the captives and do harm to innocent persons which was becoming a potential 'tumour' in his political life. It broke out in the war of Chu-han. His vengeful mentality made him incapacity in politics. He was always indecisive and politically shortsighted, which result in his missing the chance to reunite all the states of China.
