摘要
“折柳”是我国古代的一种文化习俗,它起源于汉代民间,常见于隋唐及尔后的送别诗中。文章对“折柳”和《折扬柳》古曲的演化过程进行检讨。隋唐以前,折柳用于诗中,并未与离别发生关联,隋唐之际,折柳才成为赋别的专用述语。《折杨柳》与离别发生关联经历了一个前分后合的过程,其关联契机是在南朝萧梁时期。就折柳的功能来看,可用于赠别和寄远;就其文化意蕴来看,寓有旅途顺利,随处平安之意;就其行为本身来看,则是受一种宗教情感的支配。
Picking up a Willow Branch' is a cultural custom in ancient China. The Custom can be dated back to Han Dynasty, and seen in the departure poems os Sui, Tang and later Dynasties. This article discusses the evolutional process of 'Picking up a Willow Branch' and the famous singing verse 'Picking up a Willow Branch'. 'Picking up a Willow Branch' in poems did not have any connection with departure before Sui and Tang Dynasties. Only in Sui and Tang Dynasties did 'Picking up a Willow Branch' become a special descriptive phrase for the departure. The connection of 'Picking up a Willow Branch' with departure went throuhg a long process of separation and relation, whose relevant juncture was at the Xiao-Liang stage in the Nan Dynasty. 'Picking up a Willow Branch' functioned as symbols of departure emotion and longing for a friend far away, connoting 'a smooth journey' and 'peace and well-being' in its cultural sense, and the action itself is driven by the religious emotion.
