摘要

本文擬從理論論述與文本分析兩個進路，探討《九歌》是否如王逸所言，隱寄屈原「一己之冤結」。理論論述方面，將先確認《九歌》的宗教神話特質，進而論證神話與人類心理意識及文學創作間的關係，並確認神話作為文學創作者寄寓個人情志的確切意義，以盱衡屈原藉著宗教祀神歌曲寄托自傷之情的可能性。文本分析方面，則審慎論析《九歌》諸詩，爬梳其文本題旨與特殊情調，拈出其「離合／孤寂」的結構性母題，並透過與屈原其它作品的「互文性」閱讀，尋繹《九歌》中隱含的作者個人情志。這個研究企圖深入點探究王逸的說法是否具參考價值，希望避免僅就《九歌》的文本表層性質及文化功能便斷然認定王說不可取，或絕對可從的任一偏見。

This paper intends to explore if ”Nine Songs” implies Chü Yuan's 'personally bitter smoldering', which was just like Wang Yi said, from two ways of theoretical discourse and textual analysis. From the aspect of theoretical discourse, I am going to confirm the religious and mythological characteristics of ”Nine Songs” first and the next, demonstrate the relationship between the mythology and human beings' psychological conscious as well as their literary creation; moreover, I will verify the precise meaning of mythology which is where the undertones of the literary creators' private emotions and intentions hided so as to observe the possibilities of that Chü Yuan allegorized his self-sorrowed emotions by the religious songs of gods worship. As regards the textual analysis, I'll carefully discuss the poems in ”Nine Songs”, analyze their textual gists and peculiar emotional appeal, and then conclude their structural motif of 'leaving-returning/loneliness'; furthermore, by means of 'intertextually' reading with Chü Yuan's other works, I will read between the lines to unravel the author's private emotions and intentions which was concealed in ”Nine Songs.” This research tries to investigate much deeper whether or not Wang Yi's statements are worthy of consideration and hopes to avoid presuming flatly that Wang's opinion are inadvisable completely or advisable absolutely, just according to the textually exterior quality of ”Nine Songs” and its cultural function.
