浅析《俄狄浦斯王》的悲剧性

索福克勒斯的《俄狄浦斯王》是古希腊悲剧的典范,亚里士多德在《诗学》中曾予以高度评价。但是《俄狄浦斯王》所触发的很难说是一种适度的情感,因为悲剧的＂突转＂所显示出的人和世界的虚无本性并非可被理性所能接受的真相。另外,《俄狄浦斯王》中的乱伦情节有着本体论的意义,即它既是建构文本的推动力量,也带给观众以置身无序的幻灭感受。虚无和无序把人从世界那里分割开来,使其只能作为其自身存在。这种持守自身的存在者是超越的和自由的,却也是已然死亡的和被放逐的,这是持守自身的存在者所不得不有的命运,也是《俄狄浦斯王》的悲剧性之所在。

A Brief analysis on the Tragic of ＂Oedipus the King＂

Sophocles＂ play ＂Oedipus the King＂ which gained a high evaluation by Aristotle in Poetics is the model of the Ancient Greek tragedy. But the emotion which is inspired by ＂Oedipus the King＂ can not be seen as moderate, because the nature of nothingness of the people and the world which is shown by the reversal in the tragedy is not the reasonable truth which can be accepted. Moreover, the incest plot in ＂Oedipus the King＂ has the ontological significance, which means that the incest plot is the driving force of the textual construction and brings the audiences to a desperate situation. The nothingness and the disorder isolate people from the world, which forces people to exit as their own. The people who hold their own have been dead and exilic already by being transcendent and free. This is what the tragic of ＂Oedipus the King＂ all about and the fate the sincere people have to be confronted with.
