How to understand the description of dreams in the Peony Pavilion

Tang Xianzu's "Peony Pavilion".

It is romanticism in the history of Chinese opera.

The masterpiece is one of its "Four Dreams of Linchuan", which occupies an important position in the legend of the Ming Dynasty

1] It caused a sensation in the literary world at that time, and every household recited it, and several orders "West Chamber".

The price reduction won the resonance of many young men and women at that time and in later generations. The reason why "The Peony Pavilion" has such a shocking artistic charm is that it has profound ideological connotations and outstanding artistic achievements, which is mainly due to the unique dream description in the play. Dreams and literature have an indissoluble relationship, and it is a common artistic technique in literary works to write about reality through dreams.

Zhang Dai. believes that Tang Xianzu's "Peony Pavilion" is "wonderful and wonderful, and it has reached the extreme". [2] It interprets the touching love story of Du Liniang and Liu Mengmei in its dreamy and special dramatic form, and has become a glorious chapter in the history of theater and dream culture. Tang Xianzu uses the theme of love to express critical themes in "The Peony Pavilion", and portrays a glorious woman Du Liniang who lives and dies for love, and Du Liniang pursues love at the expense of her life because of a dream.

The author gives a special symbolic meaning to "dreams", and the description of dreams is an important link between real society and life in the underworld. Some commentators have pointed out that Du Liniang's injuries, dreams and martyrdom can be divided into the realm of reality, the realm of dreams and the realm of the underworld, which has a certain amount of truth. Du Liniang's dream came out of sadness, and ended in martyrdom.

In other words, Du Liniang's dream can be regarded as Du Liniang's boring, monotonous and empty life (

On the one hand, dreams and ghosts were the only way for Du Liniang to realize her love in that era, which reflected Du Liniang's depression and depression (that society did not allow it), and on the other hand, it showed Tang Xianzu's sentimental outlook, he believed that love could transcend reality and time and space.

The story of The Peony Pavilion is very romantic, but it is also very realistic. Du Liniang.

In a dream, I met Liu Gongzi.

fell in love at first sight, the two fell in love very passionately in their dreams, and later woke up from the dream, Du Liniang did not find Liu Mengmei.

Died of depression as a result. However, in the end, it was also because of love, Du Liniang was rescued by Liu Gongzi, and after Liu Gongzi won the top prize, the two were given marriage by the emperor, and the lovers eventually became dependents. This story is very romantic, Du Liniang died because of love and was born because of love.

But the story is very realistic. Why did Du Liniang die? It's because of the spring dream that he was scolded by his mother for not abiding by women's morals and being depressed.

And why was Du Liniang able to become a lover with Liu Mengmei after returning to her soul? In my opinion, a large part of it is because Liu Mengmei won the top prize, plus the emperor's marriage to be together, after all, before that, when Liu Mengmei told his father-in-law that Du Liniang could recall, Xihuo was hung up and beaten by his father-in-law. Therefore, the story of the slippery is realistic, but this cannot stop the people who read this book from yearning and pursuing love.

Because the macro chain Ladu Liniang in the book broke through the boundary between life and death and obtained her own love.

The perception of the Peony Pavilion: Every day that I never think of dancing is a kind of disappointment to life. For us, there is only one life, each person only experiences their own life, and the experience is limited, if we want to make our life full of color, in my opinion, the best way is to read.

Through reading, we can recognize all kinds of different characters in the book, understand their joys, sorrows, sorrows, and joys, see ourselves in the different fates of different characters, appreciate the past, and thus gain thoughts on the future.

The main content of the Dream of the Peony Pavilion describes the mutual admiration of young men and women, the bold pursuit of free love, the resolute opposition to the spirit of feudal etiquette, and exposes and criticizes the hypocrisy and cruelty of Cheng (Cheng Yi, Cheng Hao) and Zhu (Zhu Xi) science of "preserving heavenly principles and destroying human desires".

What garden did the protagonist of this article swim in and what dreams did he be shocked? Mrs. Qian, who has been widowed for many years and has lost her youth and wealthy social status, lives alone in the southern part of Taiwan far away from her old acquaintances. The ** plot action of "Dream in the Garden" is the beginning and end of Mrs. Qian being invited to Taipei to attend the banquet held by Gui Zhixiang (Mrs. Dou).

When You Yuan was drunk, she recalled a secret meeting she had with Counselor Zheng before.

Because of the teaching, Mr. taught the "Book of Songs" in the "Guan Guan Ju Dove, in the River Island; My Fair Lady, Gentleman. After visiting her own back garden with the maid, she was even more sad, and when she came back, she dreamed of having a cloud and rain in the garden with a son holding a folding willow.

After waking up from a dream, he went into the back garden alone to look for the amorous man in his dream. As a result, there are several scenes such as Du Liniang's "Garden", "Dream" and "Dream Search" in the Kunqu Opera "Peony Pavilion".

The dramatist Tang Xianzu's masterpiece "The Peony Pavilion" has been adapted into various operas and sung for hundreds of years.

In the area of Jiangsu and Hangzhou in the south of the Yangtze River, Kunqu Opera was a popular opera in those years, and "The Peony Pavilion" has always been the repertoire of Kunqu Opera. In "The Peony Pavilion", the most fascinating thing is the true and illusory love story between Du Liniang and Liu Mengmei.

Li Niang returned from visiting the garden, sleepy, so she took a nap and had a sweet dream: I dreamed of a little student, holding a willow branch, and the little student sang: "Then you are like a beautiful flower, like a year of water."

It's the answer to be idle. Self-pity in the boudoir. "Liniang is very lonely and longs for someone to sympathize with her.

Li Niang gently took him and went with him.

Du Liniang was deeply bound by feudal etiquette, one day, carrying her parents and the teacher, and Yahuan Chunxiang to the back garden to visit the spring, the fragrance of flowers and birds, touching the scene and sadness, after being tired, go back to the room to rest. In a dream, he met the scholar Liu Mengmei in the garden, and many flower gods came to act as matchmakers for them.

Liu Mengmei dreamed of a beautiful woman and said that she was married. Du Liniang, she saw a scholar in her sleep and courted her. Li Niang couldn't afford to get sick.

Later, Liu Mengmei took the exam and found that Liniang was the beauty of his dreams. Liu Mengmei dug the grave, Liniang came back to life, the two became husband and wife, Du Bao refused to admit it, the dispute went to the emperor, and the two finally became dependents.

The dream is a twist in the Kunqu opera "Peony Pavilion", which is the process of Du Liniang meeting Liu Mengmei in the dream after taking a break in the back garden and visiting the garden under the guidance of the maid Chunxiang.

The dream is a classic in the Peony Pavilion, and it is often performed on various occasions as a Kunqu opera, among which the soap robes and mountain peach red have even become the representatives of Kunqu opera.

Soap robe] turned out to be purple and red all over the place, as if it was all paid to the broken well. The beautiful scenery of the good day is the day, and the joy of the courtyard is the house! The scenery is so beautiful that my grandfather and grandmother never mention it again.

Together, the morning flies and the twilight rolls, and the clouds are cuixuan; The rain and the wind film, the smoke and waves paint the boat - the people of Jinping look at this Shaoguang cheap! The sticker is that the flowers are all released, and the peony is still early.

Mountain peach] is like a beautiful flower for you, like a year of water, is the answer to the idle search. Self-pity in the boudoir. Miss, go and talk to your Nada.

Dan Zuo smiled and couldn't do it, but Dan asked in a low voice, Where to go? Before turning the peony bar, it was close to the edge of the lake and the rock. Dan asked Xiucai, what is going on?

Sheng low answer and you loosen the collar buttons, the clothes are wide, and the sleeves are holding your teeth, and you will wait for you to endure and sleep for a while. Dan is ashamed to hug Dan before his death, and he has seen each other, and he looks at each other, is it that there is no word about this benefit? Shengqiang hugged Dan at the end of the flower god bundle hair crown, and the red-clothed flower arrangement "urged the flower royal history to cherish the flower day, and inspected the spring work for another year."

The dipping guest is sad under the red rain, and it hooks people to suspense their dreams and clouds. "I am in charge of the back garden of Nan'an Mansion, and the god of flowers is also. Because of Miss Liniang, the prefect of Du, and Liu Mengmei Xiucai, there is a marriage in the day after tomorrow.
