摘要

撒旦教会经常使用动物比喻。本文从美学和思想两方面分析了Anton LaVey提出的一些最重要的动物表现形式。抓住撒旦崇拜的悠久传统，拉维在很大程度上接受了山羊的形象。他还选择了这种特殊的动物，因为它与潘的联系，以及围绕性的主题。同样地，他拥抱蛇、狮子和黑豹。然而，他对动物象征的选择超越了审美。在建立撒旦教会的过程中，拉维希望构建一种强调人类兽性的意识形态。在这一努力中，他还使用了动物形象。

Animal Imagery in the Satanism of Anton LaVey

Abstract The Church of Satan has used animal tropes recurrently. This article analyzes some of the most important animal representations that Anton LaVey came up with, both for esthetic and ideological purposes. Seizing on the long traditions of Satanism, LaVey embraced goat imagery to a significant degree. He also chose this particular animal for its associations with Pan, and the themes surrounding sexuality. Likewise, he embraced the snake, lion, and panthers. Yet, his choice of animal symbolism went beyond the esthetic. As he established the Church of Satan, LaVey hoped to construct an ideology that would emphasize humans’ animalistic aspect. In this endeavor, he also made use of animal imagery.
