中国人有“龙的传人”之称.受到中国人广泛喜爱的龙到底是什么样子的呢?按一般的说法,龙是一种神异的动物.它生着驼头、鹿角、牛耳、蛇身、鱼鳞、鹰爪和龟尾,它既能飞在天空呼风唤雨,又能潜入海底兴风作浪.很显然,这种动物在自然界是不存在的.
龙的符号最早在三千多年前的甲骨文中就出现了.据考古考证,龙最初呈现鱼、扬子鳄、猪等形象,表达人类先民希求衣食丰足的朴素愿望.随着历史的发展,龙的形象逐步演化,并且越来越附加了传说和神话成份.在公元前二世纪左右的汉代,龙的形象就定型成现在人们所知道的样子了.龙变成一种能灵异的动物,掌管风雨,赐人祸福,无所不能.
实际上,在中国,龙的象征意义远远超出习俗,它影响到中国的建筑、雕塑、绘画、书法、文学等很多方面,成为中国传统文化中不可分割的部分.随着华人华侨在全球范围内的迁徙流动,龙的概念和美学意义也传播到世界各地.
