Liaozhai everyone must have seen it more or less, it has also been adapted into various types of film and television dramas, the people in it ghost and fox love, but also a strong expression of the author Pu Songling's strong anti-feudal spirit, expressing the love he yearns for, so how did such a book Pu Songling write it? Today we will talk about what they have to talk about.
The first is Pu Songling's living environment, he has been in the countryside all his life, living a poor and miserable life of "the lintel is temporarily like a guest, and the rice will be empty and sad", and he is deeply penniless. He was only five years rich, and he had to be poor. In order to support his family, Pu Songling went to sit in another village and lived in a "farmhouse". During this period, he often ghostwrote for others, writing Shouping Jinban, Shubu Shubiao, and covering all aspects.
In the twelfth year of the Kangxi Dynasty, there was a drought in Zichuan, and it was almost the New Year, and the children were clamoring for food and clothing, but the wife had no overnight food, and even never even gave offerings to the stove king. Pu Songling called out to heaven and earth, and sorrow came from it. In this way, he had to take the stories of the devil and the ghost as the spiritual food of Dunmu, and barely survived.
Pu Songling also has a younger sister who marries an incorrigible husband who eats, drinks, gambles and gambles. The Pu family was able to ride a tiger and had no power, and the skills of the donkey took care of his sister. A sister came to ask her brother for help, and the brothers and sisters were speechless, only crying and weeping. The unfortunate encounter of Ah Mei made Pu Songling more and more aware of the life and social status of lower-class peasant women, and turned it into a turning point for her to express women's short lives and resist violence.
When he was young, Pu Songling and his lovers Zhang Duqing, Li Ximei, Wang Luzhan, etc., once married Yingzhong poets in order to develop in knowledge, morality, and thoughts. They paid poetry and honed them in parallel, and through which they practiced their writing skills.
During the Kangxi Dynasty, Pu Songling lived in Qingyun Temple to study hard, reciting and reading in the morning, desperately, accumulating extensive knowledge and large-scale talent. Qingyun Temple has cultivated Pu Songling's literary wisdom with its licorice winter rain and rainbow of morning light.
Pu Songling was sloppy, and because he had endured the rumors of feudalism all his life, he always regarded the first and Rongzong Yaozu as the path of life of the Eight Classics. And taking the fall of the science field for life is a major event of regret for life. "Liaozhai Zhiyi" is Bo Songling's representative work, which was written at the core when he was 40 years old and beyond, and has since undergone long-term revisions to fill in the gaps.
Nevertheless, most of its titles are passed down orally, but basically through the author's re-writing, it is paid with new plots and conceptual meanings.
Pu Songling spent thirty years writing more than four hundred and ninety liaozhai stories, and he probably did not have the same obvious purpose as writing a dictionary.
After reading this book, the biggest feeling is that it is not satisfactory, Pu Songling has not been satisfied all his life, and it is this kind of polishing and carving of his life's experience on his body that he has drawn out a "Liaozhai Zhiyi" that has been passed down through the ages.
