In Peach Blossom Fan, Kong wrote the sense of ups and downs through the sense of clutch. The tragic atmosphere runs through the whole play. This paper will discuss the tragedy of Peach Blossom Fan from three aspects: the tragic origin of Peach Blossom Fan, the love tragedy of Hou and Li, and the tragedies of different characters.
First, the root of the tragedy of Peach Blossom Fan
Peach Blossom Fan is based on the history of the rise and fall of the small dynasty in Hong Guang in the late Ming Dynasty. It describes that the Nanming Dynasty was addicted to sex in the face of the invasion of the Qing army. The ministers of the DPRK sold officials and titles to collect money; There are many contradictions within the army, fighting each other's civil war. Only Shi Kefa led 3,000 down archers to stand firm in Yangzhou, but they were defeated by the enemy after all. In the end, Nanming perished. In the face of hundreds of Qing soldiers, if the Hong Guang dynasty of Nanming actively saved the country and went up and down to Qi Xin, it would not fall apart.
The tragic root of Peach Blossom Fan is closely related to the background of the times and the writer's personal experience. After the Qing army defeated the corrupt Nanming, the founding fathers of the Ming Dynasty established political power to compete with the Qing Dynasty, and anti-Qing movements broke out one after another. The fierce resistance of the Han nationality and the brutal and bloody suppression of the Manchu nationality are the marks of "sadness" in this era. After the demise of the Ming dynasty, the old people in the former dynasty felt the rise and fall and cherished the past, but they had no military power and political power. In the face of the demise of the dynasty, they are more helpless. At the same time, their weakness and cruel persecution in reality forced them to compete with the Qing Dynasty in a negative way. Kong, the author of Peach Blossom Fan, personally visited the ruins of the Ming Dynasty and made many friends with the old people of the former dynasty. They told the painful stories about the past of the former dynasty and the demise of the dynasty, which inspired the author's creative desire. Secondly, Kong Shangxiang's personal fate and career were bumpy, and he was never reused by the emperor. Kong was disheartened by the defeat of officialdom and the hopeless water control in Huaiyang. Kong brought this tragic psychology into the creation of Peach Blossom Fan.
Second, the love tragedy between Hou and Li
The hero and heroine and Li in The Peach Blossom Fan are inextricably linked with the Peach Blossom Fan from the first meeting, to the rich friendship, and then to the bleak parting. Fan, a classic image, is used to symbolize the love tragedy between Li and runs through the whole play, laying the foundation for the tragic emotion of the whole play. However, when they were in troubled times with Li Sheng, their love story became tragic. Interview with Cui tells the love story with Li, and uses an aromatic fan pendant as a symbol of love to find a beautiful woman. In a deep sleep, marry Li and wait.
