現代山海經圖本創作

《山海經》是中國上古文化的珍品，自戰國至漢初成書至今，被公認為天下第一奇書。因它記載了約四十個邦國，五百五十座山，三百條水道，一百多人個歷史人物，四百多個神怪畏獸。《山海經》記載了上古先民的風俗及部落之間的戰爭，對上古傳說神話亦作了不同程度的紀錄並且留下關於神話世界空間的可靠文字根據，蘊含著潛在神話學價值。是我國保存神話傳說最多的一部典籍。《山海經》原有古圖，晉代詩人陶淵明有「流觀山海圖」的詩句，證實《山海經》原本是部有圖有文的古書，但古圖卻早已佚亡不存，現今的山海經圖本均為明、清時期所流傳下來的。而明、清時期所流傳的山海經圖本，皆根據《山海經》經文所創作。《山海經》保留了想像力豐富的神話傳說以及造型誇張怪異的動物或人物。但在以儒家為思想主流，認為「子不語怪力亂神」之下，這類的文學著作便被歷史文化相對的長期漠視。而那充滿想像和奇幻般有趣的神話材料才是《山海經》最引人入勝的文化魅力，也是值得我們去努力保存及發掘的文化資產。覽觀目前市面的《山海經》相關書籍，內容幾乎都是以學術研究導向為主的文字書刊，在閱讀上缺乏插圖輔助與趣味性。再者也有類似以東方神怪為主題的圖文書籍但其文字敘述內涵卻大不如《山海經》。另外考古的不斷發現，與《山海經》同期的圖像文物也陸續出土，這樣更有助於重新詮釋現代的《山海經》。故本創作研究希望藉由重新設計《山海經》。讓一般人更易於接受，進而知道和喜歡而後推廣，期許這份研究創對《山海經》的文化推廣有所助益。

Shan Hai Jing is an ancient writing coming down for more than two thousand years. It has been highly considered as a Chinese rare book since it was completed. It describes over 40 country, 550 mountains, 300 channels, 100 historical personages and 400 Fantastic Beasts. Shan Hai Jing has the most Chinese legend stories and represents value of the mythology. Shan Hai Jing in ancient times is a book with illustration and scripts inside. The original illustration of Shan Hai Jing has been missing what can be found nowadays are the repaints during the Ming and Qing dynasty. Shan Hai Jing kept imaginative legend stories and fantastic Beasts or personages. However, Shan Hai Jing always be ignored because of the imaginative and fantastic materials of mythology were disobey the Confucian philosophy. In my creation research found that nowadays modern Shan Hai Jing represent academic research and lack of interests, besides the new archaeological information about Shan Hai Jing is continued update by scholar. Overall, in my creation I want to redesign a Modern Shan Hai Jing in order to benefit the popularization.
