Examines the role of political dreams in ancient China, suggesting their use in expressing political ambitions.
摘要 梦本身没有政治性,但梦主常常以某种政治角色出现于政治舞台,进而使梦常常打上政治的印记,在历史变革中发挥着政治语言的作用。本论文以中国古代文献记载的政治梦为研究对象,借助文献研究法、比较法和个案研究法,考察梦与政治的关系以及梦中所蕴含的政治语言,说明在封建迷信思想与神学观念下,中国古代政治如何借助梦在政治运作中发挥特有的精神魔力。提出梦是帝王受命的政治符号语言,大臣劝说帝王的巧妙谏言,表达政治愿望的特殊隐言,决定战争决策的神秘预言。通过系统的梳理,最终得出结论,基于人们对梦的世俗迷信,在中国古代梦被政治家利用,作为实现政治野心或达到某种政治目的的一种手段。本研究运用了大量的政治梦实例,资料扎实,结构清晰,观点明确,对中国梦文学及政治语言学的发展都有重要的启发和参考价值。 Abstract The dream itself is not political, but the dreamer often appears on the political stage in a certain political role, so that the dream is often stamped with political marks and plays the role of political language in historical changes.This paper takes the political dreams recorded in ancient Chinese literature as the research object, and investigates the relationship between dreams and politics as well as the political language contained in dreams by means of literature research, comparison and case study, so as to explain how ancient Chinese politics exerted its unique spiritual magic in political operation with the help of dreams under feudal superstitious thoughts and theological concepts. It is proposed that dreams are a political symbol language in which the status and rights of the emperor are given by God. the exhortation words of ministers to persuade the emperor, the psychological language of expressing political wishes, and the mysterious prophecy that determines the decision of war. Through systematic combing, we finally came to the conclusion that based on people’s common superstition on dreams, in ancient China, dreams were used by politicians as a means to realize political ambitions or achieve certain political goals.This study uses a large number of political dream examples, with solid data, clear structure, and clear viewpoints. It has important inspiration and reference value for the development of Chinese dream literature and political linguistics.
