【摘要】 《圣经》不仅是犹太教-基督教的经典,也是一部文学巨著,其文学性已得到学界的广泛认同。《圣经》是西方文学伟大的源头,对文学的象征意义产生了重大影响。而其中的先知书,作为公元前8世纪中叶至公元前5世纪希伯来先知运动的产物,因其独有的体制和风格,在圣经中具有举足轻重的地位。由于其天启的文学体裁,国外学术界对先知书的研究,主要侧重从宗教神学视角分析其宗教内涵及其负载的犹太教教义。18世纪以后,越来越多的学者开始把圣经作为古代文化的经典来考察,18世纪中期到20世纪中期对《圣经》的文学研究也日渐兴起,但对先知书的文学研究还是远远少于历史书和律法书。国内对先知书的研究也局限于思想特点和形式特征,对其文学性的研究相对较少。本文意在从叙事学的角度分析其人物类型,结构模式和人物的塑造,希望能对国内圣经研究,特别是先知书的研究有所贡献。全文分为三章:第一章,主要探讨先知书中先知群像的人物特点。第一节探讨先知如何在叙述中传递上帝的旨意。第二节讨论先知对情节的推动作用。第二章,主要研究先知书中先知群像的人物结构。第一节研究先知行为的功能模式。第二节探讨先知话语的序列模式。第三章,主要探索先知书中先知群像的人物生成。第一节分析先知行为对先知形象的建构作用。第二节探讨话语对先知形象的建构作用。最后得出结论,先知群像的特点在于传递道德观念和推动情节发展,先知群像在叙事中行为的行动元模式指向他们作为上帝代言人的功能。先知群像的话语张力验证了先知话语的特点是惩罚与应许相共,因罪而罚,罚中有救。先知的形象可以从行为,言语以及叙述者的直接叙述中生成。先知群像体现的特征,价值和精神对于整个世界仍有重要的现实价值和意义。
【Abstract】 The Bible is not only a Jewish-Christian canon, but also a literary masterpiece.Its literariness has been widely recognized in the academia. As a great source ofwestern literature, the Bible has greatly influenced the implied meaning of Literature.The Prophets, as the product of the Hebraic prophetic movement from the middleperiod of8th century BC to5th century BC, occupies a pivotal position in the Biblebecause of its unique structure and style. The studies on the Prophets abroad mainlyfocused on its religious meaning and Jewish doctrine from perspective of theologyand religion. Since the18th century, an increasing number of scholars began to studythe Bible as a classic of ancient culture. The literary study of the Bible emerged fromthe middle of18thcentury to20thcentury, but the studies on the Prophets were stillmuch less than History and Torah. In China, the literary study on the Prophets is alsoconfined to the ideological and form features with scare attention being paid to itsliterariness. This thesis attempts to analyze the character types, structural patterns andthe characterization of prophets’ image from the aspect of narratology. It is hoped thatthe thesis would contribute to the domestic study of Bible, especially the Prophets.This thesis is divided into three parts:Chapter One explores the features of the prophets’ image. The first sectiondiscusses how the prophets deliver the God’s words in narrative. The second sectionemphasizes the promoting role of prophets’ image.Chapter Two probes the functions of prophets’ image. The first section discussesthe actants’ modes of prophets’ action. The second section explores the sequencepatterns of prophets’ discourse.Chapter Three discusses the construction of prophets’ image in narration. Thefirst section studies the role of prophets’ action to the construction of prophets’ image.The second section explores function of prophets’ speech to the construction ofprophets’ image.Finally, the following conclusion is drawn: first, the features of prophets lie inthe deliverance of morality and the promotion to the plot; second, the actants’ mode of prophets’ action points to their functions as the spokesmen of the God; third, thediscourse tension of prophets verified that the feature of prophets’ discourse is thatpunishment and promise exist together. Punishment results from sin and includessalvation; finally, the prophet’ image can be generated form action, speech and thedirect characterization of narrator. The characteristics, values and spirit represented bythe prophets’ image have retained an important practical value and significance for thewhole world culture.
