摘要: 唐宋时期,墓葬中不只发现作为宠物殉葬的猫骨、猫瓷塑,而且砖雕与壁画中还出现了大量的猫形象,这是墓葬习俗变化的结果,也表明养猫已成为一种别具意趣的生活文化。猫对人类的吸引力,不仅是由于捕鼠的实用价值,猫的外表、天性以及与人类情感交流互动的能力,促使它们融入了人类的生活,改变了人类的生活方式。此时期,猫的捕鼠护书功能以及文人对猫特定的情感想象结合在一起,塑造出一种雅的生活情境,猫也成为士大夫交往的媒介。猫作为宠物走入人类家庭与此时期物质文明与精神文明的高度发展有关。

Abstract: Cats sacrificed as pets,cat porcelain sculptures,as well as large numbers of cat images on brick carvings and murals were also found in tombs of the Tang and Song Dynasties,which was the result of the changes in burial customs,and also showed that keeping cats had become a unique and interesting life culture.The attraction of cats to humans was not only due to the practical value of catching mice,but also due to the appearance and nature of cats and the ability to communicate and interact with human emotions,which promoted them to integrate into human life and change the way of hunan life.In the Tang and Song Dynasties,the function of cat companionship and spiritual comfort gradually became more important.People raised cats to express their emotions,enrich their daily life and highlight the aesthetic appreciation and life pursuit.At this time,the function of cats in catching mice and protecting books,combined with the specific emotional imagination of literati towards cats,created an elegant lifestyle,and cats became medium for literati to interact with each other.The entry of cats as pets into human households is related to the high development of material and spiritual civilization during this period.

Key words: the Tang and Song Dynasties:the tombs:cats:the human daily life
