摘要
在但丁的《神曲》中,存在着一种普遍现象,即,灵魂们具有身体的形象和特征。对此,《炼狱篇》25歌给出了一种解释,根据这种解释,灵魂在死后获得了由其周围的空气形成的新身体,灵魂通过这些身体与外界接触。但这种解释是成问题的,因为在它未曾注意到《神曲》中灵魂的"身体性"经历了一个渐变的过程。本质上,无论灵魂"身体性"还是《炼狱篇》25歌的解释,其思想来源都是《约翰福音》第六章中耶稣与犹太人的一段对话,在那里,不信神的犹太人只能看到耶稣的肉身,却看不到他的灵性。因此在《神曲》中,"像身体的灵魂"是对不信者的神学讽刺,而"身体性"的逐渐消解则是皈依的表记。
In Dante＇s Commedia, there is a common phenomenon, that is, the souls have the appearances and the characters of bodies. For this an interpretation has been given in Purgatorio 25. According to it, souls, having been separated from bodies, acquire new bodies made up of by the air near them. It is through these bodies that the souls can be touched. The interpretation, however, proves to be false, since it fails to notice that the ＂corporality＂ of souls has experienced a gradual change throughout the journey of the pilgrim. As the essay argues, both the idea of the corporality of souls and the interpretation in Purgatorio 25 originate from a conversation between Jesus and Jews in John 6. There the Jews who do not believe God read the words of Jesus literally and ignore the allegorical teaching of him. Accordingly, they can only see the flesh of Jesus and refuse to recognize his divine nature. It is from the perspective of John that the ＂eorporality＂ of souls in the Commedia be considered as a theological satire for sacrilegiousness. And the dying out of that ＂corporality＂ , then, is a sign of conversion.
