本研究以「奇幻」文學角度與「神獸形象」之設定，作為研究聚焦，通過中日文化交流的進路，結合弗萊「神話原型批評」、榮格心理學、盛邦和「內核─外緣」假說，探討原型文化《山海經》與型變文化《十二國記》之文本，進行神獸形象、原型、象徵的跨文化研究模組。 依據弗萊「神話原型批評」理論，乃將「神獸形象」分別為三大方面進行鋪陳：歷史批評對應文獻的分析歸納與重整；倫理批評則是對神獸形象的象徵與原型進行討論；原型批評是對整體文化的深入研究，配合盛邦和「內核─外緣」假說的中日文化論， 釐清神獸形象背後，內核文化與外緣文化各自彰顯的文化思維。側重「神獸」形象與象徵意義深層的文化內涵，為人類深層意識的規律與軌跡，歸納整體的意向。 This study uses the literary perspective of ＂fantasy＂ and the setting of ＂images of God beast's＂ as the research focused. Through they way of culture exchange between China and Japan, combined with Frye's ＂Mythological archetypal criticism＂, Jungian psychology and Sheng, bang-he's ＂Inner-core and Outer-edge＂ hypothesis, this paper explores the texts of the archetypal culture 《Classics of mountains and seas》and the deformation culture 《The twelve kingdoms》, and carries out the cross-cultural research module of the images, archetypes and symbols of God beasts. According to Frye's ＂mythological archetypal criticism＂, the ＂images of God beast's＂ is divided into three major aspects respectively: Historical criticism corresponds to the analysis, induction and reorganization of literature. Ethical criticism is the discussion of the symbol and archetype of the God beast's images. Archetypal criticism is an in-depth study of the whole culture, with the Sino-Japanese cultural theory of Sheng, bang-he's ＂Inner-core and Outer-edge＂ hypothesis, to clarify the cultural thinking behind the ＂images of God beast's＂ and the core culture and the edge culture. Focusing on the deep cultural connotations of the image and symbolic significance of the ＂God beasts＂, this paper summarizes the overall intention for the law and trajectory of human deep consciousness.
