摘要: 百余年来,中国神话美学研究的内容主要集中在以下四个方面:第一是从神话起源的角度阐述想象力对神话的本质属性。这方面以王国维和鲁迅为代表。第二是对神话思维与审美的思维方式之间关系的论述。这方面成果最丰富,是神话美学研究的重点。第三是对中国神话与审美意识和审美范畴之间关系的研究。这方面的研究成果尚显零星。第四是神话意象研究。这方面以闻一多的神话个案研究为代表;当代以来,汪裕雄和叶舒宪等人的成果引人注目。这些研究为彰显中国神话的世界性价值、建构具有中国民族性特点的神话学理论奠定了基础。

Abstract: In the past 100 years, aesthetic studies into Chinese mythology are done in four main areas. The first approaches from the perspective of the origin of myth and investigates its nature in relation with imagination, with Wang Guowei and Lu Xun as the representatives. The second examines the relation between mythic thinking and aesthetic thinking, and this has been the focal area of research and proves to be the most fruitful. The third area is a much explored field, which concerns the relationship between Chinese myth and the aesthetic consciousness and aesthetic categorization. The fourth area of reserach focuses on myth imagery, with Wen Yiduo's case study as earlier representative works and Wang Yuxiong and Ye Shuxian as contemporary representatives. These studies have helped to recognize the value of Chinese myth in the world mythological system and established the foundation for theoretical study of mythology with Chinese national characteristics.

Key words: Chinese mythology, aesthetic consciousness, mythic thinking, mythic imagery
