摘要

摘要:民众对政府兴衰的印象取决于政府的廉正、远见和对民众愿望的回应。由此产生的社会现象,被称为大众形象或认知,因此可以被视为对现状的随大流或不随大流的表达。民间文学是公众外化其世界观的手段之一,民间文学中弥漫着主体人物的悲喜剧色彩。本研究旨在确定当代阿姆哈拉民间诗歌中反映的埃塞俄比亚军政府的流行形象,这揭示了公众认知的二重性。一方面,被选中的对联是对现状的批判,使负面形象永久化。另一方面,Därgue被认为是一个民族主义政府,被认为是保护国家利益和国家领土完整的政府,而不管其疏忽大意。无论如何,反对埃塞俄比亚军政府的政治宣传似乎适得其反,因为大多数对联唤起了对过去的怀念。

The Popular Image of Därgue as Reflected in Amharic Folk Poetry (1974–91)
ABSTRACT:The popular image of governments that rise and demise is determined by their integrity, vision, and responsiveness to the aspirations of the populace. The resultant social phenomenon, known as popular image or perception, could thus be viewed either as an expression of conformism or nonconformism with the status quo. One of the means by which the public externalizes its outlook is folk literature, which is permeated with the tragedy and comedy of the subject people. This study was designed to determine the popular image of the military government of Ethiopia (1974–91) as reflected in contemporary Amharic folk poetry, which revealed the duality of public perception. On the one hand, the selected couplets are found to be critical of the status quo, which perpetuates negative images. On the other hand, the Därgue is perceived as a nationalist government credited with protecting the national interest and the territorial integrity of the country irrespective of its inadvertent malpractices. At any rate, politically motivated propaganda against the military government of Ethiopia seems to have backfired, because most of the couplets evoke nostalgia for the past.
