荷马史诗描述的宇宙由天空、大地、冥界与塔耳塔罗斯组成,为垂直四分式的等级世界。大地上的方位只有东方与西方,即白昼之方和黑夜之方。与东方接近的地方被视为光明与温暖的,而与西方接近的地方则相反。换言之,整个的南方被列入接近太阳的东方,整个的北方则被列入远离太阳的西方。荷马的右方与吉兆相关,左方与凶兆相关。概而言之,荷马世界的垂直与水平层面皆呈二元对立模式,为神话式的非均质等级世界。此种空间模式的生成基础为人对外界的感知,也就是人类通过身体的体验而获得的经验。荷马的空间是非理性的经验世界,因而其空间意识属体验的宇宙论范畴。
The universe described by Homer consists of the sky, the earth, the underworld, and Tartarus, a hierarchical world of vertical quarters. The earth’s orientation is only the East and the West, the day of the day and the night of the party. Places that are close to the East are considered light and warm, while those that are close to the West are the opposite. In other words, the entire south is included in the east close to the sun, and the entire north is included in the west far from the sun. The Homer is associated with the auspicious sign on the right and the Opposite sign. In short, both the vertical and horizontal aspects of the Homer world are in a binary oppositional model, a mythical heterogeneous hierarchical world. The basis of this spatial pattern is the human perception of the outside world, that is, the experience gained by the human body through the experience of the body. Homer’s space is an irrational world of experience, and thus its spatial consciousness belongs to the cosmological category of experience.
