《荒原》的神话结构意蕴新探

研究《荒原》的救赎主题,神话是必经的门槛。T.S.艾略特运用＂圣杯＋金枝＂的＂神话术＂构建诗歌的底层思想结构,建立起＂救赎＂与＂再生＂的精神联系,并从人类学本体论的高度实现了对宗教思想范畴的反思和超越。而着眼于时间循环和生命周期发展的动态过程,《荒原》的非理性神话结构模式体现着史前宗教的＂永恒回归＂信仰。返回文化生命之源、重现初始完美之境,人与世界的对立再度化为＂统一＂,神话承载的＂死而再生＂的生命寓意就获得了永恒性的文化指向。

The New Exploration of Myth Structural Meaning in The Waste Land

To study the redemption theme of The Waste Land, the myth is the necessary threshold. T.S. Eliot used the ＂Holy Grail＂ and the ＂Golden Bough＂ to build the poetry＇s underlying structure, establishing the spiritual connection between ＂salvation＂ and ＂rebirth＂. He then reflected and transcended the religious thoughts from the aspect of the anthropological ontology. Focusing on the dynamic process of the development of cycles of time and life, irrational myth structural mode in The Waste Land embodied the prehistoric religious ＂eternal return＂ faith. Returning to the source of cultural life and reproducing the initial perfect realm, the opposition between human beings and the world went to be ＂unified＂ again; the moral of life of ＂death and regeneration＂, which was carried by myth, got the immutability cultural orientation.
