-Reading Liu's Revealing a Dream of Red Mansions
There is no doubt that I am a real red fan.
The concrete evidence is as follows: I began to watch a dream of red mansions at the age of 65,438+00. So far, I have watched novels at least 20 times and TV plays at least 65,438+00 times, and bought a set to watch at any time. I like watching movies, plays, songs and dances very much. I have memorized at least 60% of the poems, sorted out the complicated relationship between the characters, and hand-painted the Rong and Ning families and the Grand View Garden. Collect all kinds of pictures and articles related to it (including matchboxes, bookmarks, etc.). ), and read a lot of academic articles by Yu Pingbo, Zhou,, and other Redology masters. Go to the website of the Red Chamber every day and write N articles related to the Red Chamber. ...
Is this evidence enough to show my love for A Dream of Red Mansions?
However, after reading Liu's Revealing a Dream of Red Mansions, I found that my interpretation of a Dream of Red Mansions is still far away-not far away, but very far away and immeasurable.
It turns out that A Dream of Red Mansions is not to be read page by page over and over again, but to be read word by word, even word by word. Master Liu told me that this is reading a dream of red mansions, this is a red fan, and this is the research method of a dream of red mansions.
I sigh, as if sighing!
There are already many schools of Dream of Red Mansions, including versions, explorations, photographic evidence and Cao Xue's and the author's problems. Now that Master Liu has given us a vivid lesson, let the already complicated Dream of Red Mansions be more complicated-he has created a set of Qin studies.
The so-called study of Qin is to study the corresponding relationship and logical speculation between the story in the book and the story in the author's real life from a character named in A Dream of Red Mansions. Master Liu quoted the classics and was well founded. Indeed, it makes beginners like me nod and praise frequently.
The theme and story outline of this book Qin Xue is as follows: Qin Keqing was originally the daughter of the abandoned prince, but in order to avoid family disaster, she was taken out of Yangshengtang as an abandoned baby and was fostered by a small official in Jiafu. After she was born and grew up, she became the eldest daughter-in-law of Jia's family. Just then, her brother was planning a coup. If successful, she will be a decent princess. But she failed to live up to her political and historical mission, and had a big fight with her nominal father-in-law (actually her husband) for the word "love". Her special behavior was discovered by Yuan Chun, another product of Jia's political investment, and reported to the current emperor in time, thus forcing Tianxianglou in Qin Keqing to hang himself and die.
Master Liu used hundreds of pages to demonstrate his conjecture for us, and at the same time guessed the true identities of other characters in the Red Chamber, such as Miao Yu and Li Wan, which made me sit up and take notice of the Red Chamber.
Master Liu said that Lin Daiyu died in the lake, not from illness.
Master Liu said that Wang Xifeng died in prison, just like in TV series, and died miserably.
Liu said that Jia's downfall was due to his participation in the political conspiracy of the faction.
Master Liu said that he was hanged like Yang Guifei, and the cause of death was sent to kill him.
Master Liu said that Miaoyu fell in love with the prince and grandson Chen mentioned by Shi Xiangyun's later husband Wei before hiding in Jia's house. She never liked Baoyu at all, but later she gave her life to save Baoyu.
Master Liu said that Shi Xiangyun was the old lady Zhi Yanzhai who was later accompanied by the author.
…………
It turns out that those little scenes that I ignored contained so much information. It turns out that there is such a thrilling story hidden in Zhi Yanzhai's few digital comments. It turns out that reading A Dream of Red Mansions is an article that can only be understood with the spirit of exploration.
At the beginning, because of Master Liu's ground-breaking remarks, it caused a strong response and debate when he broadcast the lecture on CCTV. Unfortunately, I didn't watch the show at that time!
However, I still quite agree with Master Liu's words: When reading the Red Chamber, you should allow different opinions, and don't crush people with an expert's hat. The implication is that everyone is equal before the red chamber! That's a good idea! Then a small person like me can guess from my own understanding that Lin Daiyu married King Jing, and Xue Pan denounced Baoyu and so on.
But anyway, this book "Liu Demystifying a Dream of Red Mansions" is worth reading!
