Abstract

Taking as the point of departure the Ahobilamāhātmya narratives that depict local hills as Narasiṃha‘s residence, the paper considers those hill narratives as a product of interrelatedness of nature and culture and examines the crucial role such a product may play in vesting Ahobilam with the notion of sacredness. To this end, the narratives‘ ability to mediate various concepts is explored from the wider perspective of cultural ecology of literature, which allows them to be viewed as a site where besides nature and culture other domains can be reintegrated and reconciled, e.g., the elements of local and Brahmanic traditions. In addition, as I argue, such narratives may also convey some shifts in perceiving the landscape.

故事山庄
本文以描绘当地山丘为那拉提迦(Narasiṃha)居所的阿霍比拉姆(Ahobilamāhātmya)叙事为出发点,将这些山丘叙事视为自然与文化相互关联的产物,并探讨了这种产物在赋予阿霍比拉姆神圣性概念方面可能发挥的关键作用。为此,我们从文学的文化生态学这一更广阔的视角探讨了这些叙事对各种概念进行调解的能力,从而将它们视为除了自然和文化之外,其他领域(如地方和婆罗门传统元素)可以重新整合与调和的场所。此外,正如我所论证的那样,此类叙事还可能传达出对景观感知的一些转变。
