Wen Yiduo on Chinese Mythology/闻一多讲中国神话 [Chinese]

By 闻一多

A monumental work in the study of ancient Chinese mythology, based on lecture notes from the mythology general education course at National Southwest Associated University. 中国上古神话研究扛鼎之作，西南联大神话通识课讲义。 This book compiles ten representative works on mythology by Wen Yiduo. The rich and diverse myths of ancient China form a cultural gene embedded in the very blood of the Chinese people. Wen Yiduo's theoretical interpretations of Chinese mythology filled a gap in this field of knowledge. Drawing extensively on classical texts and rigorous argumentation, he sought to restore the original form of these myths to the greatest extent possible, uncovering the historical truths behind them and the spiritual aspirations of the ancients. Wen Yiduo's mythological studies are highly innovative and thought-provoking. Combining traditional Chinese methods such as phonology and textual criticism with foreign theories from folklore and anthropology, his arguments range across ancient and modern sources, weaving together the classics and the Hundred Schools of Thought, ensuring the objectivity of his scholarship. Alongside his meticulous and thorough reasoning, his work is infused with his characteristic passion, making his writing engaging and often allowing readers to feel the fervor of a poet as they read. 本书收录了闻一多具有代表性的神话学研究著作共十篇。众多丰富多彩的中国古代神话故事是烙印在中华儿女血液中的文化基因，闻一多对中国神话的理论解释填补了这一知识领域的空白，引经据典，充分论证，力图最大程度还原神话故事的原貌，揭露神话故事背后的历史真相和古人的精神寄托。闻一多的神话学研究颇具启发性和创新性，既运用中国传统的音韵学、考据学方法，又借鉴外国的民俗学、人类学理论，议论证据古今，出入经史百子，保证了内容的客观性。伴随着翔实细密的论证过程的还有他一贯的饱满的情绪，文章因此颇有趣味，阅读时常常能感受到一种诗人的激情。
