The reason why A Dream of Red Mansions is called The Stone is because A Dream of Red Mansions is also called The Stone. That's how the name "Stone" came from. It is said that when Nu Wa tried to repair the sky by refining stones, she left a useless stone and abandoned it at the foot of Geng Qingfeng. After exercise, the stone has been spiritualized, but it can be big or small. A monk saw it together and wrote it on a stone? Don't forget, Heng Chang first? In a few words, he joined the WTO and became the second son of Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang? Jia Baoyu
There is a passage in the original book wedge of A Dream of Red Mansions, telling readers that A Dream of Red Mansions originated from the story recorded in The Story of the Stone, which was copied by Taoist Confucius, revised, added and deleted, and edited into a book by Cao Xueqin.
Who is the author of A Dream of Red Mansions? It is estimated that more than 90% of the authors will say Cao Xueqin. It is true that this is the knowledge of many people, but the result actually comes from a textual research during the Republic of China.
In the earliest version of A Dream of Red Mansions, which was called The Story of the Stone in the early years, a Dream of Red Mansions was not only incomplete, but also unsigned. There was textual research on this in Qing Dynasty. At the end of Qing Dynasty, Xu Ke compiled Notes on Qing Dynasty, which recorded that Cao Xueqin's A Dream of Red Mansions had been circulated for a long time. Scholars and literati with records of Xi are called redology. ? In the Republic of China, in order to study the novel writers, two schools were formed: one school was an old school with Mr. Cai Yuanpei and his masterpiece The Story of the Stone as its core, and advocated that A Dream of Red Mansions was a metaphor for the adherents of the Ming Dynasty before and after the demise and revival of the Ming Dynasty; The other school is a new school headed by Hu Shi's Textual Research on A Dream of Red Mansions, which advocates that A Dream of Red Mansions is Cao Xueqin's own business.
With the popularity of A Dream of Red Mansions, there are different interpretations on the theme and purpose, and the author of A Dream of Red Mansions has become a mystery. Hu Shi found a passage from Yuan Mei's Poems with Gardens by combining western academic research with Gan Jia's textual research: Cao Zixue Qin wrote A Dream of Red Mansions to record the prosperity of romantic scenery: its founder was Jiangning magistrate, and its so-called Grand View Garden is the former site of Suiyuan today. Unfortunately, his books have not been handed down, and little-known people in the world can see his banknotes.
A Dream of Red Mansions was designated as Cao Xueqin's autobiography, and Hu Shi advocated taking the garden as a grand view garden, which was refuted by Gu Jiegang. Later, Yu Pingbo and Zhou, students of Hu Shi, carried forward and talked nonsense, which made the New Dream of Red Mansions unique, and the old Dream of Red Mansions was gradually sublated and disappeared into history. But is Hu Shi right?
Who is Cao Xueqin? There is no conclusion in history. Hu Shi claimed to be the father of Cao Xueqin and Cao Fu. According to the notes of Yu Rui, Yong Zhong, Ming Yi and Yuan Mei, these people have never seen Cao Xueqin. However, according to some rumors, he thinks that he wrote A Dream of Red Mansions, and Hu Shi can't produce absolute evidence. Many things are based on local county records. Who is Cao Xueqin's real identity? Is it a descendant of Cao family woven by Jiangning (there is no other name in the genealogy, but there are also posthumous children and illegitimate children)?
A Dream of Red Mansions has been handed down in manuscripts, and it has been a dime a dozen during the Qianlong period. Hu Shi regarded A Dream of Red Mansions as an early work of Qianlong, but it was impossible to write it back in just a few decades. Hu Shi and Zhou spent two years copying 16 old books, while Cao Xueqin died young, and his writing time was no more than 20 years, so he wrote more than 100 volumes of A Dream of Red Mansions. This is questioned.
Nowadays, Redology scholars are bent on breaking into the Cao family, reading the genealogy and digging tombstones. They wanted to prove that A Dream of Red Mansions was Cao Xueqin's family history, but they got nothing because of the new redology. Research? The banner, coupled with the hype of the new redology, almost crushed the old redology to death. This is nothing more than literary injustice. In recent years, redologists are more constrained by the examination and approval of the red inkstone, hoping to find out what the last twenty chapters of the original work are, and insist on using Cao Xueqin's family story collection, which is actually a black hole.
Today, we might as well jump out of Hu Shi and use Cai Yuanpei's research to see who is the author of A Dream of Red Mansions. A Dream of Red Mansions reveals several clues.
1, Zhen actually hinted: Liu, Liu's name is pity.
2. The Jiangyun Building where Liu lives is similar to that described in A Dream of Red Mansions.
3. The stories of Lin Daiyu and Dong Xiaowan are similar.
Cai Yuanpei's The Story of the Stone thinks that this book is the death of the Ming Dynasty and the loss of the Qing Dynasty. As an anti-Qing scholar, Cai Yuanpei once personally made a bomb to stab a thief, so many opinions in this book have a * * * sound with Cai Yuanpei. He pointed out that the earliest version of A Dream of Red Mansions was just an empty Taoist's Romance, which was revised by Cao Shi's descendants into The Story of the Stone, and Cao Xueqin.
Hong Sheng said.
This statement was put forward by Mr. Tumerger of Jilin Province. Hong Sheng was a great master of traditional Chinese opera during the reign of Kangxi. His famous work "Palace of Eternal Life" is his work, which is as famous as Kong, the author of Peach Blossom Fan. In the 43rd year of Kangxi, Jiangning Weaving Cao Yin rehearsed the book "The Palace of Eternal Life" in Nanjing, and Hongsheng was invited to watch it. After reading it, he fell into the water and died because of drunkenness.
People think that Hong Sheng is the author because the structure of the Palace of Eternal Life written by Hong Sheng is exactly the same as that of A Dream of Red Mansions, while the stories of Long Bird in Brocade, Zhao and Jia Lian, Wang Xifeng, You Erjie and Qiu Tong in A Dream of Red Mansions are exactly the same. Hongsheng's hometown, Huawu, Hongyuan Garden, Daguanlou, Ouxiang Bridge, Qiuxue Temple, Tianqi Temple, Xu Chong Temple, Narcissus Temple, Taixu Building, Shuiyue Temple, Tiexi Temple, Bamboo Window, Dai, etc. are all in A Dream of Red Mansions. The words Baoyu, Chai, Dai, Wan, Feng, Yuan, Ying, Tan, Xiang Yun, Yuanyang, Jinchuan and so on appeared in Hong Sheng's Four Zen Volumes in his later years.
Wu Meicun said.
This statement was put forward by Mr. Fu Bo and Mr. Zhong Changshan of Fushun City. Also known as Wu, one of the three outstanding men of Jiang Zuo in the late Ming Dynasty. He is a famous writer named Mei Cun. His father is a hermit and Taoist Lu Qiao of Dayun. During Manchukuo's invasion of China, he was physically and mentally exhausted because he was an official in the north. After that, he lived in seclusion in Jiangnan for 20 years and secretly formed an association against the Qing Dynasty. Wu Meicun died in Kangxi for 10 years.
The evidence that Wu Meicun said lies in the early version of A Dream of Red Mansions:? Wu Yufeng wrote A Dream of Red Mansions; Meixi, the east foot of the sky, inscribed "Yue Feng Treasures". ? Is the book Yue Feng Bao Jian the preface of his brother Tang Cun? Combine the names above, and the result appears. Wu Meicun? .
Many story prototypes in A Dream of Red Mansions can be found in Wu Meicun's poems. For example, the love legend of the emperor shunzhi and Dong E Fei described in Liang Qing's ode to Buddha is very similar to that of Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu in A Dream of Red Mansions. Wu Meicun himself had a love affair with Bian Yujing, one of the eight beauties in Qinhuai. After the Ming Dynasty, Bian Yujing became a monk on the mountain, and this experience also matched Miaoyu's Taoist identity. What about Wu Meicun? Dress up as a monk after death? ,? Put a boulder in front of the grave? It also implies the meaning of stone in A Dream of Red Mansions.
Mao Bijiang's theory
This theory was put forward by Mao Lianquan, a descendant of Mao Bijiang. His real name is Mao Bijiang, his real name is Bijiang, his real name is Chao Min, his real name is Pu Chao, and his real name is Rugao, Jiangsu. Born in the thirty-ninth year of Wanli in Ming Shenzong, he died in the thirty-second year of Kangxi. One of the four sons of Fu She in Ming Dynasty, his wife was the famous Dong Xiaowan, who was flashy all her life, brilliant in literary talent, beautiful in appearance and famous for her poems. His Memory Ann describes a touching love story between him and Dong Xiaowan, which is very touching to read today.
The mammoth is a son, luxurious and luxurious, with slaves in groups. According to historical records, Mao Bijiang likes fragrant tea, aromatherapy and elegance, and has a good relationship with Dong Xiaowan. During Manchukuo's invasion of China, the writing brush river was secretly anti-Qing and dragged away by the war. He was seriously ill for several days, and Dong Xiaowan held him day and night. After Mao Bijiang's illness, Dong Xiaowan broke down from overwork and died young. This experience is exactly the same as Jia's.
In the Ming Dynasty, the first great-great grandfather of Maojiaxiang took on a rich family and ideal city, which was called Maojia Mansion on both sides of Maojiaxiang, Rugao. At that time, Mao Xiang lived in the West Mansion, which was built by his grandfather at the age of dream interpretation. Mao Xiang's father and two concubines live in Dongfu. The east and west houses are about the same size, corresponding to Guo Rongfu and Ningguo House in A Dream of Red Mansions. Do you? Ningxitang? , Jia Fu has? Rongtang? , can be described as corresponding.
Cai Yuanpei thinks that Dong Xiaowan is the prototype of Lin Daiyu. Dong Xiaowan is talented and good at poetry and painting, similar to Lin Daiyu. Both of them are sentimental, lamenting the strange girl, a sad and narcissistic woman, Dong Xiaowan, who is only 27 years old. Daiyu's life is too empty. According to the related literature, more than ten women in Mao Xiang's life have been in love. Besides his wife Su, there are Li, Chen Yuanyuan, Dong Xiaowan, Wuqi, Wu Koukou, Cai Nvluo, Jin, Fan Jue, Sha Jiuqi and Yang Yiying, all of whom are good at singing, dancing and painting. He has a close relationship with the twelve women in Jinling, and has a good relationship with money and money, so it is also conditional to write about Liu Hebian Yujing.
Fang Yizhi said.
Professor Chen Xianxing of the University of Science and Technology of China put forward Fang Yizhi's theory, arguing that Fang Yizhi is known as a fool with a full bow and a long sleep. His dharma name is Hongzhi. He was a famous thinker in the Ming Dynasty, who advocated the combination of Chinese and Western culture and the integration of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. Literature, history, philosophy, geography, medicine, physics, all kinds of academics are everywhere. Fang Yizhi, the founder of Tongcheng School, has a deep family background. He was also one of the four sons of Fu She in Ming Dynasty. During Manchuria's invasion of China, Fang Yizhi became a monk and secretly resisted the Qing Dynasty. In the early years of Kangxi, he was implicated in Guangdong's anti-Qing dynasty and jumped into the river and died.
What kind of stories is Stone full of? Red? Repeat many times? It's hard to see the moon? , and so on, without thinking, the author is Zhu Ming dynasty? Young and old? ,? Han nationality? ! Fang Yizhi became a monk under Cao Dongzong, which is homophonic with Qin Xue? Study hard? , so? Cao Xueqin? What was the original intention? Did Cao Men go to school after all? Fang Yizhi has both ability and knowledge, and has the conditions to write A Dream of Red Mansions. In addition, what is described in A Dream of Red Mansions? Last time? A Dream of Red Mansions is a novel that hangs on the Ming Dynasty and opposes the Qing Dynasty. Jia Baoyu's self-proclaimed author? Dashun people? . Obviously, it is to raise money for the Ming Dynasty. A Dream of Red Mansions scolds the Land Rover generation, which is obviously dissatisfied with the Manchu Dynasty. This is the view of calligraphy in Dream of Red Mansions written by Fang Yizhi and the brush Jiang.
The characters in A Dream of Red Mansions fit in well: Twelve, Seven and Four are the numbers arranged by Zhouyi, Fang Yizhi is also a master of Buddhism and Taoism, and Yao Di Paozhuang has a high study of Taoism. Fang Yizhi's grandfather and father both studied the Book of Changes, and Fang Yizhi was called a "master of the Book of Changes" by scholars, so it is entirely possible to use the Book of Changes to arrange the characters in A Dream of Red Mansions.
Gu Jingxing said
Mr. Wang suggested that the author of A Dream of Red Mansions was Gu Jingxing, and Gu Jingxing's words were red. No, it's Huang Gong. Gong Sheng in the late Ming Dynasty and Hong Guang in Nanming took part in the examination and were awarded a promotion. After Manchuria invaded China, it repeatedly failed to be an official. Gu Jingxing has a profound memory, and his poems and songs are all famous for a while. Some words reveal the yearning for the old country and the pain of parting.
Gu Jingxing? I was able to write poetry at the age of six. When I was eight or nine years old, I read the classic history all over the world. I counted my lines and said? Holy boy? There is a bag of poems. At the age of eight or nine, he has read the classic history of the world and is called the first strange man in the world? ,
Gu said that psychic jade originated from; The story of Shen Ying Waiter and Crimson Pearl Grass originated from the story of three grandfathers, Gu Aying, Zhen and Miao Yu, living in Xuanmu Mountain outside Nagato, Suzhou, and from his life experiences in Nagato and Huqiu, Suzhou around the Ming Dynasty. Gu Jingxing's sister was lost in the war, and later married to the Cao family in Jiangning, which made them have an in-laws relationship. All the sketches in A Dream of Red Mansions can be found in Gu Jingxing's White Haired Tangji.
In a word, no matter who wrote this great book, we still want to thank it for telling us a story, recording a history and depicting a dream. We still hope to have a happy ending in this dream. Whether it is the ending of the story or the identity of the author, it remains to be further explored.
A Dream of Red Mansions China's first classical Four Great Classical Novels Dream of Red Mansions is a novel written by Cao Xueqin in the Qing Dynasty, also known as The Story of the Stone and Jinyuyuan. This book is divided into 120 chapters? Cheng Ben? 80 more times? Fat book? Two versions of the system. The first 80 times of the new edition of the general book are collated according to Fat Book, and the last 40 times are collated according to Cheng Shu. Did you sign it? Cao Xueqin, anonymous, Cheng Weiyuan, Gao E finishing? . The author of the last 40 chapters is still controversial, but we should be alert to the extreme tendency of dwarfing or even deleting the last 40 chapters.
A Dream of Red Mansions is an earthly novel with world influence. It is recognized as the pinnacle of China's classical novels, an encyclopedia of China's feudal society and a master of traditional culture. The novel takes the rise and fall of Jia, Shi, Wang and Xue as the background, the family affairs of Jia's family and the leisure of boudoir as the main line, and the love and marriage stories of Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai as the main line, depicting the beauty of humanity and tragedy of lovers centered on Jia Baoyu and Jinling Twelve Chai. Through family tragedy, daughter tragedy and protagonist's life tragedy, the end-time crisis of feudalism is revealed.
The author of A Dream of Red Mansions has a preliminary democratic thought. He profoundly criticized the real society, including the darkness of the court and officialdom, the decay of feudal nobles and their families, the feudal imperial examination system, the marriage system, the handmaiden system and the hierarchical system, and the corresponding social ruling thoughts, namely, Confucianism and social morality of Confucius and Mencius, and put forward vague ideals and propositions with preliminary democratic nature.
