在各种文体中都可以看到隐喻的广泛存在,相对来说,隐喻与神话的关系尤其紧密,甚至可以说神话就是一种隐喻生文体,因此研究隐喻与神话的关系就显得十分必要。神话与隐喻的关系主要体现在三个方面:一是神话思维就是一种隐喻思维;二是神话的作品结构呈现出隐喻性;三是作品中的神话原型以隐喻的方式存在。 Metaphor can be seen in a wide variety of genres. Relatively speaking, the relationship between metaphor and myth is particularly close. It can even be said that myth is a metaphorical style. Therefore, it is necessary to study the relationship between metaphor and mythology. The relationship between myth and metaphor is mainly reflected in three aspects: First, mythological thinking is a metaphorical thinking; second, mythical work structure shows metaphoricality; third, the mythological prototype works in a metaphorical way.
