刘禹锡动植物观的生态意蕴

Ecological implication of Liu Yuxi's View of Plants and Animals

刘禹锡的动植物观揭示了动植物与天时及人情之间的关系。"时"是动植物所表现出来的应时性,突出了动植物与天(环境)的关系;"情"是动物所表现出来的感知能力以及对人的感染力,凸显了动物与人在情感层面的联系。对人而言,动植物既是"时"的标记,又是"情"的载体。从刘禹锡的动植物观中,可以捕捉到其中所暗含的有机联系式的思维模式,即动植物是被置于天——动植物——人这一关系模式下认识的。在这种整体联系式的认识模式下,动植物是既外在于人又与人有内在联系的存在。这体现了人与动植物之间彼此分离又相互渗透的生态关系。

Liu Yuxi's view of plants and animals reveals the relationship among plants,animals,season order and humanemotion. Season order is the performance of plants and animals that complies with the order of nature,highlighting the rela-tionship between animals and plants and weather(environment). Emotion is the performance of the perception and the ap-peal shown by animals,highlighting the connection between human beings and animals in emotional level. For human be-ings,animals and plants are not only the mark of"season order",but also the carrier of"emotion". From Liu Yuxi's viewof animals and plants,we can catch the thinking mode of organic connection,where animals and plants are known underthe relationship between season order,animals,plants and human beings. In this thinking mode,plants and animals areboth external and internal relations. This reflects the ecological relationship between people and animals and plants,whichare separated from each other and penetrate each other.
