内容摘要: 诗人歌德在《柯林斯的未婚妻》和《死者之舞》两首叙事谣曲中赋予了死亡声音和形象,具象地描写了死亡的在场,也展现了死亡独特的“生命活力”。这样的死亡书写打破了不可逆转的自然规律,在奇幻的虚拟语境中实现了生与死的通约,让死亡被遮蔽的本质坦然敞开,让丰盈旺盛的生命力得以自由绽放,让“魔性”与理性的辩证关系得以清晰呈现,从而也彰显出诗人泛神主义的生死观。歌德将死亡进行了“生命化”的独特书写,也从认识论的层面丰富和充实了死亡的概念,并在奇妙而神异的想象中将死亡的美学价值和哲学意境展现得淋漓尽致。

Abstract: Goethe depicts death with voice and image in his two ballads, Die Braut von Korinth and Der Totentanz, vividly describing the presence of death and displaying the unique “vitality” of death. Such kind of writing about death breaks the irreversible natural law, facilitates the agreement between life and death in the fantastic virtual context, opens up the hidden essence of death, allows the rich and strong force of life to flow freely, defines the dialectical relationship between “devilishness” and rationality with great clarity, and hence underscoring the poet's pantheistic view of life and death. Goethe's unique writing about death as life not only enriched and solidified the concept of death from the level of epistemology, but also illustrated, incisively and vividly, the aesthetic value and philosophical significance of death in his wonderful and fantastic imagination.

Key words: Goethe, ballad, concept of life and death, Die Braut von Korinth, Der Totentanz
