《离骚》“求女”指意探微

关于《离骚》“求女”的蕴意说法甚多,然以王逸的“求贤臣”之说最为确当。“高丘之女”象征楚国王廷里的近臣;“下女”象征即将成为楚王近臣的楚国地方官员或楚国贵族;他国之女象征其它侯国的臣僚。屈原“求贤臣”的目的乃是希望通过这些贤臣的帮助,获得楚国或他国国君的信任,以顺利实现自己的政治抱负。

On the Implication of Pursuing Beauties in Lisao

There are many ideas about the implication of pursuing beauties in Lisao by Qu Yuan,but only Wang Yi's thought is the most unquestionable.The beauties on or under Kunlun Mountain respectively symbolize the courtiers in Chu palace or the local officers or aristocrats who would walk into the royal court in a short time,while the foreign ones indicate the courtiers in other states.The destination which Qu Yuan sought the able and virtuous courtiers was that he wanted to get the trust of Chu monarch or a foreign one by their helps so as to realize his political ambition favorably.
