摘要
关公是中国民间广泛奉祀的神祇之一,西方对关公的了解肇始于大航海时代。16世纪西班牙《谟区查抄本》中的关羽图由福建画师绘制,呈现出东方持刀关公形象;此后荷兰作家达波利用访华使的记录,创作了充满东方想象的关公夜读图,流传至今。此外,西方行纪等文献中的关羽形象融合了黄帝、秦始皇等人物,成为迥异于东方认知,在政治、军事、技术等方面“全知全能”的神灵。十六七世纪西方对关公形象的构建,有助于消弭中西文化隔阂,为管窥早期东西文化交流提供视角。
Western people started to learn about Lord Guan(also known as Guan Yu),one of the deities in Chinese folk religion,in the Age of Discovery.The typical eastern image of Guan Yu holding a knife in The Boxer Codex,a late-16th-Century Spanish manuscript,was drawn by a Fujian painter;later,with creative imagination,Dutch writer Olfert Dapper created a painting of Lord Guan reading a book at night according to the records of envoys who visited China,which has been passed down to this day.In western travelogues and other documents,Lord Guan had the characteristies of the Yellow Emperor and the First Emperor of the Qin Dynasty,and became an omnipotent deity in politics,military and technology,which was different from its image in the east.The image of Lord Guan created in the west in the 16th and 17th Centuries helped eliminate cultural barriers between China and the west,and provides a perspective for studying early cultural exchanges between the east and the west.
