At first glance, which version of Dream of Red Mansions is better

Gengchen Edition, there are originals, and even the recently seen Leningrad Lipo Yaben, the paper they copied did not indicate the name of the person or the name of the book in the middle seam. Only sixteen times remain in the Jiazhu book, and there is no criticism in the first eleven times of Gengchen's book. Recently, the "Fat Yan Zhai Re-evaluation of the Stone Ji Gengchen School Book" edited by the red scholar Deng Suifu was published by the Writers Publishing House.

The Records of the Stone (Gengchen Edition) is the most complete early manuscript of The Dream of Red Mansions. At the book signing a few days ago, the red scholar Zhou Ruchang said that the publication of "Fat Yan Zhai Re-evaluation of the Stone Ji Gengchen School Book" is of great significance to the study of "Dream of Red Mansions". The "Fat Yan Zhai Re-evaluation of the Stone Record" (Gengchen Ben) is considered to be the final transcript of Cao Xueqin's lifetime, and it and the Jiazhu book are the two most important of the eleven ancient manuscripts.

The editions that Deng Suifu revised this time were Cheng Gaoben, which had been popular for more than 200 years, Yu Xueben, which was first published in 1963, and Xinwen Xinwen, which was first published in 1982. Deng Suifu said that the "Fat Yan Zhai Re-evaluation of the Stone Ji Gengchen School Book" corrected no less than 5,000 errors in the text and broken sentences of the above three school books, with a total of more than 3,600 proofnotes and more than 360,000 words. Deng Suifu believes that because Gengchen has the most criticisms in this book, it can well reflect the connotation of the work itself, "What the revised version should do is to present readers with an original Dream of Red Mansions."

The Stone Records of Jiazhu are the earliest among the 11 kinds of "Dream of Red Mansions" lipid commentaries found so far, the most authentic and incomplete, but it is the most precious one, which was discovered and collected by Mr. Hu Shi in 1927 and is now stored in the Cornell University Library in the United States. Today, according to the photocopy that was first put on the market in Taiwan in 1961, it is typeset and contains all kinds of information about this book in the original manuscript and photocopy.

I first read the 120 copies of the popular book of the People's Publishing House, which has difficult words to explain, which seems to be very convenient, and it is not expensive, about 20 yuan a large book.

Now the set of two-volume Dream of Red Mansions at hand is also from the People's Publishing House, which is handed over by Zhou Ruchang, and it is 58 yuan if it is not discounted, but this set of books is only 80 times, and there is no Gao E's continuation book.

Recently, I saw a set of 120 copies of the Dream of Red Mansions in the early years of the People's Publishing House in the bookstore, there is a definition, regardless of the early period of its publication, I read it in the bookstore, a very good set of books, it has three copies, divided into three volumes, I recommend buying this set. If it weren't for the fact that I already had a set of Dream of Red Mansions by my side, I would have wanted to buy it. Most large bookstores and bookstores should have.

Dark red soft cover, a dream of red mansions written in ink. That's what it looks like, you should be easy to find when you go to a bookstore.

I think it's good to read it for the first time, and it's not bad to read it with an ending, although Gao E's sequel is not much, but it doesn't hurt to read it. So the last one is very good. Finally, in a wordy sentence, don't care if the version is old or new.

In fact, as long as you can understand the original work, it is estimated that you should read the original work written by Cao Xueqin for the first 80 times and the last 40 times of Gao E's continuation, and you can feel the author's thoughts and emotions from it, the most important thing is to persevere, Dream of Red Mansions has many characters, complex relationships, many chapters, more poems, and more content, which is impossible to comprehend after reading a few times for the first time.

I don't think you should read the weekly book or the fat book or even other ancient books for the first time.,The first time you read it, you should read the most popular book.,First read it.,If you're interested, read some books.。 The Dream of Red Mansions of Zhonghua Book Company is very good, I haven't found a typo so far, haha, the base book made by Cheng Jiaben has been published many times, it is more authoritative, **19 yuan.
