李白及其詩之英雄與英雄崇拜探賾

On the Hero and Hero Worship of Li Bai and His Poems

本文連結了神話與詩歌，指出神話和詩歌在本質上是相同的，它們都是人類神秘的夢想，如果神話中英雄崇拜原型是人類集體無意識的一種心理活動，那麼我們應該也可以在詩歌中看到相同的心理原型。
其次，本文指出李白的人格具有英雄人物的特徵，他的出生和死亡都有神話英雄的特徵。除了神話英雄之外，李白也是歷史上的詩人英雄，李白詩人英雄的意義就在於我們在閱讀李白神話時認同了李白不世出的詩歌天才，並且在感情上對他的懷才不遇產生同情。
本文第三部份則是英雄崇拜理論的實際操作，以卡萊爾和坎伯兩位學者的英雄人物分類做參校，來分析李白詩中的英雄人物。這些分析主要在說明，英雄和英雄崇拜是神話上的一種原型，基於神話與詩歌同源，它們也是詩歌中的一種原型。

This paper points out firstly that mythology and poetry are not idiosyncratic. They are the mysterious dreams of human beings. If the hero worship were the prototype of human psychiatric unconsciousness, then it must exist in the poetry too.
Secondly, the present paper considers that Li Po’s personality has the characteristics of hero. His birth and death has all the features of mythic figures. Li Po is not only a mythic hero but also a historic hero. The reader is compassionate with Li Po while reading his poems.
Thirdly, we put the theory of hero worship into practice. Based on the hero theories of Thomas and Joseph Campbell, we divide the hero figures in Li’s poem into six categories. The purpose of this practice is to elaborate that hero and hero worship are archetype of mythology and because mythology and poetry has the same origin, it is the archetype of poetry.
