Abstract

Ode to Marriage, as a valuable piece of oral literary work, is a typically representative narrative poem created by Lisu. It portraits Lisu people’s comprehension towards love and marriage in details and conveys their mode of thinking about marriage. This paper aims at analyzing the reflection of the protagonists’ anxiety that constructs an exceptional narration integrated with cultural, psychological and philosophical contexts. The anxiety about arranged marriage is exhibited in three aspects. Physical reaction, spiritual reaction and solution-seeking action reflect their anxiety combined with loneliness, weakness, depression, determination, fear and sense of guilt. Secondly, the separation anxiety includes two sides, namely, the temporary separation between lovers and the separation from parents. Thirdly, the survival anxiety is involved with hindrances on the way and the land issue. Finally, the philosophy of anxiety reveals anxiety is not a complicatedly psychological process but an integrated reflection of neurological symptoms anxiety, reality anxiety and existence anxiety.
