早期吴越文化中的“剑崇拜”--以《吴越春秋》《越绝书》为例

摘要

古吴越人民表现出强烈的“剑崇拜”心理。吴越人民认为，宝剑凝聚着天地精华，有着非凡的灵性与神性。吴越人民对宝剑的崇拜来源于吴越地区独特的山川地理、崇尚巫风的民俗及其民族特有的崇尚武力、刚柔相济的精神气质。《吴越春秋》《越绝书》对剑的神化，对吴越人民“剑崇拜”心理的渲染，影响了后世小说关于剑的叙事模式的形成。%The people of ancient Wu and Yue regions showed a strong sword worship psychology. In Wu and Yue peoples' opinions, sword condensed the essence of the universe, hence the extraordinary spirituality and divinity. Wu and Yue peoples' sword worship took root in the unique geography of mountains and rivers of the regions, the folk custom of advocating witchcraft and the spirit of perfect combination of the strong and flexible. The deification of the sword and the rendering of the sword worship psychology togeth-er are conductive to the formation of the narrative mode of the sword in later novels.
