《山海经》中草木、异兽、神怪意象语言分析

An Analysis of the Imagery Language of Vegetation, Strange Animals and Gods in the Classic of Mountains and Seas

《山海经》是我国先秦时期记载上古风貌的奇书,更被称为我国“神话之渊薮”,其中记载了大量山海湖泊以及各式各样的草木、异兽、神怪等意象。这些意象记载充满令人陶醉的艺术色彩,其语言运用丰富的修辞手法,如拟人、比喻、夸张等,其语言风格简短精炼、质朴纯真,在当今时代看来仍然具有极强的时代价值。

The Classic of Mountains and Seas is a rare book of ancient scenery in the pre-Qin period. It is also known as the “source of mythology”, which records a large number of mountains, seas and lakes, as well as a variety of vegetation, exotic animals, gods and monsters. These images are full of intoxicating artistic colors, and their language uses rich rhetori-cal devices, such as personification, metaphor, exaggeration, etc., and their language style is brief, concise, simple and pure, which is still of strong value in today’s era.
