達觀博物：《山海經．五藏山經》的感官認識及其覺知記述

Expansive Vision and Broad Learning: Sensory Epistemology and Descriptive Awareness in The Classic of Mountains and Seas: The Mountains Volume 1-5

以往《山海經》研究，固然已從文化哲學的角度，凸顯「身體」作為語言符號的象徵性示意功能。然就神話傳播的角度而言，卻相對缺乏出於身體行動的「感官」套論，循此入探神話「創傳者─接受者」之間，所呈顯之認知發生或思維轉渡，及其建立共同意識的發展過程。職是，本文嘗試從認知發生的角度切入，重新審視《山海經．五藏山經》博物體系當中，有關感官認識及其覺知記述的內容，並分別聚焦「取象賦形」、「循音摹聲」、「服食嚐味」等主題，期以凸顯感官覺知之於人之主體行動的意義，及其對於形塑博物知識的關鍵作用。

Previous studies of The Classic of Mountains and Seas have advanced diverse views on the symbolic function of the body as a linguistic symbol with respect to cultural philosophy. However, in terms of the dissemination of myths, theories related to the corporeal senses have been less frequently discussed. From the perspective of the propagation of myths, there has been a relative lack of“sensory”theory based on physical action, making it difficult to deeply understand the cognitive occurrence or transition between the“creator and receiver”in myths as well as the process through which they built a shared consciousness. This study aims to review and re-examine sensory epistemology and awareness in the information systems in The Classic of Mountains and Seas: The Mountains Volume 1-5 from the perspective of cognition. It also makes an effort to shed light on themes such as observation, onomatopoeia and tastes in food and clothing, which reveal the meaning of sensory perception based in human action and subjectivity along with their critical role in the formation of broad learning.
