摘要
周代是中国文化从非理性的神本主义到理性的人本主义的改革时代。它开创了中国历史上影响深远的礼乐文明,而祭祀正是周代礼乐文明的核心要素之一。《诗经》收录的周代祭祀诗,从一个侧面为我们揭开了周代礼乐文明的面纱。我们可以通过周人对天命、鬼神的认识,对祭祀活动的伦理化、政治化过程,以及祭祀仪式中表现出的重农思想,窥探出周人的理性精神。从而发现周人祭祀已不再是盲目的迷信活动或单纯的礼仪形式,而是其用以凝聚宗族力量、发展农业生产、强化政治统治等的重要手段。这不仅对中国优秀传统诗礼文化产生深远影响,同时也影响着中华文明数千年的发展,让我们更加深刻地认识到周代礼乐文明的基本特质,并感知周代礼乐文明对中国传统诗礼文化的深远影响。
The Zhou Dynasty was a peak time of evolution when the Chinese culture was turned from irrational theocentricism into rational humanism.Originated from the Zhou Dynasty,ritual and music civilization has a far-reaching significance in Chinese history with sacrifice offering as its core.Sacring poems of the Zhou Dynasty complied in The Book of Songs revealed the ritual and music civilization indirectly.From their understanding of destiny,ghosts and gods,ethicization and politicization of sacrifice offering as well as great attention to agriculture displayed in sacrificial ceremonies,we found that the sacrifice of people in the Zhou Dynasty is no longer a blind superstition activity or a simple form of etiquette,but an important method used to gather clan power,to develop agricultural production,and to strengthen political rule.It not only has a profound impact on China’s excellent traditional poetry and ritual culture,but also affects the development of Chinese civilization for thousands of years.At the same time,it gives us a deeper understanding of the basic characteristics of the Zhou Dynasty’s ritual and music civilization.
