“漫画”最早起源于古代中国,你都见过吗?

众所周知,我们如今无处不在的动漫起源于漫画,而世界上最著名的两个动漫大本营,一个是日本,一个是美国。中国的动漫尚处于发展阶段,在一步一步茁壮成长。
然而,令人惊讶的是,“漫画”一词早先起源于古代中国。最早可以追溯到北宋时期,这时“漫画”指的是一种鸟类,即栖息在黄河岸边的琵鹭。

直到清代初期,“漫画”才开始与绘画发生联系。“扬州八怪”之一的金农,曾在他的《金冬心杂画题记》中写道,“每年五月,正是自己家乡、湖广杨梅成熟的时间,自己离家多年,此时只能漫画寥寥折枝,以解相思之愁。”在文中,金农所用“漫画”为动词,即漫不经心、随手勾画之意。

虽然“漫画”一词的出现很晚,但是有“漫画”之意的作品却早已在我国产生。如中国古代的石刻艺术,通过寓意和象征表达作者内心的思想。如南宋大石刻《大威德明王》,《地狱油锅》等·,其夸张形象的表达出绘画的目的。还有中国的年画,如今已经比较少见,常见的是窗花和剪纸,但是总的来说这些形式都是用夸张、借喻等等手法表现主旨的。

明代著名的《山海经》郭璞注解版,其内容主要通过改造、重组生活中的人和动物的器官、肢体,进行加减、交错、移位、夸张、变形。创造出全新的深化形象。其中的数百个神态各异的神话造型,是后来很多漫画的基础和灵感的来源,不仅中国在借鉴,其他国家也在借鉴我们祖先留下的宝贵财富。
(明代,山海经中的天狗漂洋过海来到了岛国)
可以看出,中国古代漫画作品充分体现出其神形兼备、以形写神、以神驭形的特点。借用夸张、变形等表现手法,强调刻画形象时的笔墨的简练传神,以线条为主进行创作。
可以看出,无论是造型,还是图片与文字的关系,中国古代的艺术理论与绘画技巧都与现代漫画有很多共同之处。因此,我们可以说,不仅“漫画”一词最早起源于中国古代,就连“漫画”的核心内涵和思想都发源于中国古代的绘画艺术中。中国对“漫画”有最古老和最悠久的认识。
希望中国的动漫产业能够利用好这一项优势,在与美国、日本的动漫产业对抗中找到适合自己的前进道路,找回曾经的辉煌与灿烂。
