扎格柔斯或译为扎格列欧斯扎格留斯匝格瑞俄斯Zagreus希腊语Ζαγρεύς),有时祂被认定为俄耳甫斯教信徒所膜拜的神祇,是最初的酒神,乃宙斯与珀耳塞福涅所生之子,曾遭受提坦的支解并且又获重生。[1]最早提及扎格柔斯的神话中,祂与大地女神盖亚是婚配关系并被尊为“至高”之神,不过有可能仅仅在指祂是冥界神祇中地位崇高者。然而埃斯库罗斯却把黑帝斯与扎格柔斯关系作了联系,认为祂可能为黑帝斯之子,亦或与黑帝斯是同一尊神祇。[2]值得注意的是“黑帝斯被认定成宙斯在阴间另一神格Hades' identity as Zeus' katachthonios[3] alter ego)”,有“阴间宙斯”称号,提摩西·甘茨英语Timothy Gantz(Timothy Gantz)则假设最初扎格柔斯可能是黑帝斯与珀耳塞福涅之子,后来与俄耳甫斯教神祇狄俄倪索斯(本身为宙斯和珀耳塞福涅之子)身份等同。[4]

词源

编辑

有关扎格柔斯原文──Zagreus的来源,正如同卡尔·克雷尼英语Károly Kerényi(Karl Kerényi)根据赫西丘斯训诂(the Hesychian gloss)[5]所解释的那样:爱奥尼亚希腊语中捕捉活猎物的猎人被称为zagreus,而zagre这字根其意思是“捕捉活猎物的坑pit for the capture of live animals)”。[6]克雷尼这么说道“我们可以合理来质问,为何如此神话般伟大猎人,乃野生动物捕捉者而非屠杀者,到希腊却转变成冥界的神秘神灵呢?We may justifiably ask, why was this great mythical hunter, who in Greece became a mysterious god of the underworld, a capturer of wild animals and not a killer?)”[7]克雷尼也将扎格柔斯形象与古老酒神仪式联系起来,认为小动物遭肢解被生啖其肉,“此非希腊酒神教派作风,而是史前宗教仪式转化或遗留之习俗not as an emanation of the Greek Dionysian religion, but rather as a migration or survival of a prehistoric rite)”。[8][9]

古希腊宗教观的冥界

编辑

早期仅于亡佚作品的片段中有提及扎格柔斯,[10]当中已将希腊冥界与扎格柔斯做了连结。最早是出现于《阿尔克迈翁诗英语Alcmeonis》(Alcmeonis,公元前六世纪?)单独引述的诗句:

中译:大地之母〔盖亚〕,以及诸神中至尊扎格柔斯。
原文英译:Mistress Earth [Gaia], and Zagreus highest of all the gods.

也许此处是指祂乃冥界最高神。[11]

显然地,对于埃斯库罗斯而言扎格柔斯实质上就是冥界神灵。在埃斯库罗斯失传剧作《西西弗斯》(Sisyphus,约公元前五世纪)当中的一段诗句谈到,扎格柔斯似乎是黑帝斯之子,[12]但在埃斯库罗另一作品《埃及人》(Aigyptioi)里,扎格柔斯看来又被认为与黑帝斯是同一尊神祇。[13]欧里庇得斯遗佚剧作《克里特人》(Cretan Men or Kretes)片段中,歌队将他们自己描述为伊达山英语Mount Ida (Crete)宙斯(希腊神话中,伊达山有一处宙斯出生的穴窟──伊达洞府〔Idaean Cave〕,此山被视作祂母亲提坦既时光女神──雷亚圣地)启蒙者以及“夜游扎格柔斯,执行祂生肉盛宴night-ranging Zagreus, performing his feasts of raw flesh)”仪式的司祭。[14][9]

俄耳甫斯教的狄俄倪索斯·扎格柔斯

在欧里庇得斯断章残篇中所述的扎格柔斯让人联想到宙斯和塞墨勒(Semele)之子──酒神狄俄倪索斯,[15]事实上,尽管“扎格柔斯”并没有出现在俄耳甫斯教发源地(色雷斯)的任何一处,但此名号在其他地方已被认定就是俄耳甫斯教的狄俄倪索斯(同体异名),而且其神话传说与其他普遍流传的版本截然不同。[16]此尊狄俄倪索斯乃宙斯与珀耳塞福涅之子,在婴儿时期,祂惨遭提坦迫害及肢解,而后又重生成为宙斯和塞墨勒之子。

Edmonds 1999, p. 37 n. 6 says: 'Lobeck 1892 seems to be responsible for the use of the name Zagreus for the Orphic Dionysos. As Linforth noticed, "It is a curious thing that the name Zagreus does not appear in any Orphic poem or fragment, nor is it used by any author who refers to Orpheus" (Linforth 1941:311页面存档备份,存于互联网档案馆)). In his reconstruction of the story, however, Lobeck made extensive use of the fifth-century CE epic of Nonnos, who does use the name Zagreus, and later scholars followed his cue. The association of Dionysos with Zagreus appears first explicitly in a fragment of Callimachus preserved in the Etymologicum Magnum (fr. 43.117 P), with a possible earlier precedent in the fragment from Euripides Cretans (fr. 472 Nauck). Earlier evidence, however, (e.g., Alkmaionis fr. 3 PEG; Aeschylus frr. 5, 228) suggests that Zagreus was often identified with other deities.'
