The history of the five dynasties of the remnants of the Tang Dynasty Representing works: chapter book novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" Biography, living in the south of the Yangtze River, aspiring to the king, angry book, main works, literary characteristics, character evaluation, later generations of memory, Shandong Dongping, Shanxi Qingxu, related disputes, disputes about origin, and Shi Nai-an, biography, living in the south of the Yangtze River when the Yuan Renzong Yanyou, Luo Guanzhong's father was a silk merchant. In the middle of the Yuan Dynasty, as the trauma of the war of extermination of the Song Dynasty gradually subsided, the economic and cultural center of gravity of society began to shift from the north to the south. Hangzhou, the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty, not only became a prosperous city with a large population and developed commerce, but also became an important center for theatrical performances and the development of the art of "talking". As a result, many northern intellectuals and "book clubs", such as Guan Hanqing and Zheng Guangzu, moved to the Hangzhou area one after another. Luo Guanzhong, who was a writer of novels and plays, was inevitably affected by this social trend and became one of these southward-migrating writers. at the age of 7, he began to learn the Four Books and Five Classics in private schools, and at the age of 14, when his mother fell ill and died, he dropped out of school and went with his father to do business in the Suzhou and Hangzhou areas. However, Luo Guanzhong was not interested in business, and with his father's consent, he went to Cixi to study with Zhao Baofeng, a famous scholar at that time. Luo Guanzhong's name was "The Disperser of the Lakes and Seas", a title that implies that he roamed the rivers and lakes and traveled to the ends of the earth. He came to Hangzhou between 1345 and 1355 AD. Many talking artists told books here, and some writers of miscellaneous dramas were also active here. Luo Guanzhong and like-minded people as friends. Coupled with his extreme love of folklore, here, naturally unwilling to leave far away. Aspire to the king of Yuan Huizong to Zheng sixteen years (1356 years), Luo Guanzhong left Zhao Baofeng, "Aspire to the king of" Luo Guanzhong to the peasant insurgent Zhang Shicheng's office as a guest. Zhang Shicheng, who had risen up and claimed the throne, was the one who was responsible for the destruction of the Yuan Dynasty. The next year, under Luo Guanzhong's advice, Zhang Shicheng defeated the attack of Kang Maocai, a subordinate of Zhu Yuanzhang. In the same year, Zhang Shicheng's brother was defeated and captured by the Yuan Dynasty, and Zhang Shicheng had to surrender. After surrendering to the Yuan Dynasty, Zhang Shicheng was greedy for enjoyment. In the 23rd year of the reign, Zhang Shicheng saw the decline of the Yuan Dynasty and claimed the throne again. Many of his advisors, including Luo Guanzhong, suggested suspending his claim to the throne, but it was not accepted. Liu Liang, Lu Yuan, and others left, and Luo Guanzhong lost confidence in Zhang Shicheng and returned to his hometown Taiyuan. Soon after, Luo Guanzhong also left Zhang Shicheng in September of the twenty-third year of the reign of Zhengzhi (1363 A.D.) and traveled north again, and by the twenty-sixth year of Zhengzhi's reign, Luo Guanzhong was back in Hangzhou. It was after that year that Luo Guanzhong wrote the "Popular Romance of the Three Kingdoms" (《三国志通俗演义》). At this time, he was already in his fifties, history, life have a more mature view, fully equipped with the conditions for the creation of the "Three Kingdoms Popular Romance". By the third year of Emperor Hongwu of the Ming Dynasty (1370 AD), Luo Guanzhong had written twelve volumes, and the subsequent volumes were written after the fourth year of Hongwu. During Luo Guanzhong's writing of the Popular Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Shi Nai'an migrated from Suzhou to Xinghua and died in the third year of the Hongwu reign. In order to honor his master Shi Naian, Luo Guanzhong decided to process and add to Shi's Water Margin after completing the Popular Performances of the Three Kingdoms. The book was written between the fourth and tenth year of Hongwu. While processing and updating Water Margin, Luo Guanzhong continued to create a series of historical novels. Fury to write a book At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the world was in turmoil, and he was involved in the rise of a group of heroes. Ming Wang Qi in the "compilation of barnyard history", said he was a "aspiring king, but met God", that is, to see the world will inevitably fall into the hands of Zhu Yuanzhang, had no choice but to fade out of the jianghu. Soon, Luo Guanzhong far away from Jiangnan, living in the area of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, to novels to write its "king" of the hegemony of the mind. Figure king unsuccessful, angry book. However, this may be just a legend. Because the Qing Gu Ling "Tower Shadow Garden Collection" Volume 4 "Trekking Water Margin" recorded "Luo Guanzhong guest Bafu Zhang Shicheng", which is not consistent with the image of "aspiring to figure the king". These two records are contradictory places, but enough to show Luo Guanzhong in the late Yuan once wanted to make a difference, "the god of the barnyard history", just in reality after the failure of the helpless choice. After the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang in order to consolidate his position, had made the provinces even three years. Due to the fact that he was an enemy of Zhu Yuanzhang, Luo Guanzhong had to give up the opportunity to enter the officialdom as a scholar. In the 14th year of Ming Hongwu, Luo Guanzhong wrote "San Sui Ping Demon Biography" (20 books), and since then, it has been an unending stream of writings, such as "The Remnants of the Tang and Five Dynasties History Acting Biography" and "Sui and Tang Zhi Zhuan". Some experts believe that Luo Guanzhong's early experience of "aspiring to be a king" and his special state of mind in his later years were the keys to his preference for novels with political and historical themes and his artistic success in such novels. First, he used the story of the Three Kingdoms as a theme to write Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and second, he edited Water Margin with the story of the Liangshan heroes, which has both historical and heroic qualities (the common saying, for example, that Chinese Literary History endorses the saying that it was originally written by Shi Nai-an and edited and compiled into a book by Luo Guanzhong). Luo Guanzhong was already in his sixties after composing these works. He traveled from Hangzhou to Fujian around the thirteenth year of the Hongwu reign in order to publish these works, as Jianyang in Fujian was one of the centers of the publishing industry at that time. However, Luo Guanzhong failed to realize this purpose. Luo Guanzhong's creative talents were manifold. He wrote musical hermitages and operas, but his achievements in novels were predominant. About his novels, the West Lake Tourism Zhiyu said that he "compiled dozens of novels", and it is also rumored that he wrote the "Seventeen Histories". The surviving works signed Luo Guanzhong, in addition to "Three Kingdoms Zhi popular playbook", there are "Sui and Tang Zhi Zhuan", "the remnants of the Tang and the Five Dynasties history of the play biography" and "three attempts to level the demon biography" and Shi Nai-an together with the preparation of the "Water Margin". Among these works, "Three Kingdoms Zhi Zhuan Yi" is the most accomplished. The book depicts the complex political and military struggles of the Three Kingdoms period in a grand structure, beginning with the Yellow Turban Uprising and culminating in the unification of the Western Jin Dynasty. The work condemns the brutality and ugliness of the rulers, reflects the pain of the people in the era of turmoil and their yearning for clear politics and a benevolent ruler, and embodies the clear tendency of "supporting Liu and opposing Cao". The Popular Performances of the Three Kingdoms Zhi is "not very deep in writing and not very vulgar in speech", and its language is simple, clear and vivid. It combines history and literature naturally, with realistic portrayal and full of romanticism and legend. Luo Guanzhong's "Popular Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is the earliest surviving version of the Jiajing version, and the most popular version is the revised version by Mao Lun and Mao Zonggang in the Qing Dynasty. In addition to his novels, Jia Zhongming's "Record of Ghosts" says that he was "extremely refreshing in his music and cryptic language". His surviving works of opera include the miscellaneous dramas of Zhao Taizu's Dragon and Tiger Winds and Clouds. The basic idea of the opera is similar to that of the "Popular Performances of the Three Kingdoms", which depicts the intimate relationship between the ruler and his ministers, and hopes to put an end to the tragic situation caused by the rivalry of the wicked and the powerful by "correcting the three principles and honoring the five norms". Luo Guanzhong lived to be seventy years old between 1385 and 1388 A.D. He died in Luling (present-day Ji'an, Jiangxi Province), the hometown of Wen Tianxiang, a national hero of the Song Dynasty. Main works Scripts: "The Meeting of the Dragon and Tiger of Emperor Song Taizu", "The Loyal and Righteous Filial Son's Serial Remonstrance", "The Death of Sanping Zhang and Crying for Gossip Tiger's Son". Novels: The Chronicles of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, The Historical Episodes of the Remnants of the Tang and Five Dynasties, The Legend of the Three Sui-Ping Demons, The House of Powdered Makeup, The Complete Water Margin, co-authored by Shi Nai-an, and The Romance of the Three Kingdoms, among others. Literary features Luo Guanzhong is known as the originator of Chinese chapter novels, his chapter novels are characterized by chapter narratives, sub-back labeling, each story is relatively independent, paragraph neat, but also before and after the hook, the first and the last, the book constitutes a unified whole. And has been divided into volumes of subheading, catalog text is also very elaborate. Today see the earliest Jiajing nonwoo (1522) engraved book "Three Kingdoms Zhi Popular Romance", each time the title is a single sentence seven words. He and Shi Naian co-authored the Water Margin, the title of each time has been a double sentence, roughly dual. In addition to the sub-title, his chapter book novels also preserved the Song and Yuan books in the beginning of the quotation of the opening poem, the end with the system of prose poems. The main text is often to "say" two words at the beginning, often in the plot to carry out the critical juncture of the end of the brake, with a "want to know what happens later, and listen to the next time to decompose" of the phrase, the middle of the more cited poems and songs to make the scene description or character praise, and so on. Luo Guanzhong His chapter book novels in the system to be stereotyped at the same time, in the artistic expression is also increasingly mature. The literary characteristics of his works are mainly manifested in the following: the process of book formation from the collective compilation of successive generations to the transition to personal originality; creative consciousness from the history of the play, allegory, to the face of reality, attention to life; the performance of the subject matter from the focus on the emergence of the war and other national events, to focus on daily life, family trivia; depicting the characters from the extraordinary heroes and monstrous, to the ordinary people; the portrayal of a typical from the highlighting of the characteristic character of the character to use the The typical characters are portrayed from highlighting the characteristic character to portraying the personality of the characters with multi-colored and dynamic strokes; the plot structure is from linear flow to net-like intersection; the language of the novel is from half-literary and half-white to colloquial and dialectal; and so on and so forth, which are sufficient to illustrate the great achievements of Luo Guanzhong's chapter novels in the history of the Chinese novels. This also laid a solid foundation for the vernacular short stories in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, which had its heyday and developed more delicately. Luo Guanzhong is a writer with special contribution in the history of Chinese literature. He wrote a lot of novels, all of which were based on the theme of chaotic times. There were only seven divided eras in Chinese history, and Luo Guanzhong wrote three of them; in addition to Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he was also rumored to have written Sui and Tang Zhi Zhuan, The Remnants of the Tang and Five Dynasties History, and Three-by-Five Demons, etc. He also took part in the compilation and creation of the Water Margin. He can also lyrics and music, made by the miscellaneous drama, known today, there are "Song Taizu Longhu Fengyunhui", "loyal and filial son of serial admonition", "three Pingzhang dead cry gossamer tiger son" three, the latter two have been anonymous. Luo Guanzhong experienced the social upheaval at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, witnessed the reality of strife, and understood the people's miserable life situation, and recognized their ideal pursuits. He engaged in the novel writing motivation, on the one hand, "not too much to vent their anger for a while, to get fast four years", on the other hand, is also to change the shortcomings of the art of talking, for the people, for the talking artist to provide a good, convenient talking base. He started from the needs of society and literature, and carried out a solid new work of collecting, organizing, and enriching several kinds of novels with a greater influence on the folklore. Luo Guanzhong's works, especially the emergence of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, marked the completion of the transition of the ancient Chinese novels from the stage of "talking book" to the long chapter book, and unveiled a brand-new page in the history of the development of Chinese novels. Luo Guanzhong's artistic attainments, first of all, benefited from his familiarity with historical data and deep understanding of historical characters. He absorbed the strengths of Chen Shou's The Three Kingdoms, acquired the essence of the folk book Saying the Three Points, and collected hundreds of stories of all sizes. He knew the names and character traits of hundreds of emperors, generals and ministers, and even the social relationships, historical destinies and career paths of many of them. Luo Guanzhong's ability to learn from the past and to memorize and use the past is the reason why he was able to capture a hundred years of history in his eyes, and to gather the whole century's winds and clouds at the end of his writing. Conflict is the most attractive thing about historical novels. The author can use it to create momentum, use it to show the characters' actions and promote the development of the storyline. One of Luo Guanzhong's best skills is to create momentum. It creates a tense situation, which serves as the driving force behind the conflict. Luo Guanzhong is the best at writing wars, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in hundreds of wars are written with their own characteristics, none of them are repeated. The Battle of Red Cliffs is particularly well-written. The first feature of the Battle of Red Cliffs is that the two countries were at war, and the three sides were involved; there were a great deal of military activities and a great deal of diplomatic activities, and the major strategists and generals of the Three Kingdoms period were all involved in these activities. The second feature is that the method of advancing and resolving conflicts is based on intellectual and tactical battles, rather than on confrontation. A great deal of the work describes and recounts civil rather than military battles. The third characteristic is the characteristics of the era. Before the Battle of Red Cliffs, it was a period of war between many warlords, and the fire of the Battle of Red Cliffs burned out the history of the Three Kingdoms for half a century. The fourth feature is the geographical characteristics, Cao Cao, Sun Quan, the two sides, the middle of the Yangtze River across the middle of the Yangtze River, the Yangtze River hanging high in the sky, the bottom of the thick ground, muy Huo Cang, vast and boundless, or fog in the sky, or the waves beat the shore. So both sides of the battle, are around this big river to make a big fuss. The river's changing weather conditions affects both sides of the battlefield. The fifth feature is the intersection of multiple contradictions, both between the enemy and us, such as Cao Cao's desire to destroy Sun Quan, but also the internal contradiction of the allies, such as Zhou Yu's desire to kill Zhu Geliang; there are open fire, hidden arrows, collusion, betrayal, and justice, but also conspiracy of the collapse. The sixth characteristic is: the result of the conflict struggle is unexpected: the strongest loses, the weakest wins; the one with the most soldiers loses the most, and the one with the least soldiers gains the most. Luo Guanzhong's most outstanding achievement is the creation of typical characters who always shine. These characters have been active on the Chinese stage and imprinted on the hearts of the Chinese people for centuries. Plot twists and novelties, and individualized and condensed language are also a characteristic of Luo Guanzhong's historical novels. Luo Guanzhong is not only recognized as the author of one of the earliest chapter book novels in China and the pioneer of the "historical novel" genre, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but is also regarded as the author of the "Heroic Legend" and the "Divine and Magical Novel" genres of chapter book novels, respectively. The author of "Water Margin" and "San Sui Ping Demon Legend", which are considered to have created the "Heroic Legend" and "Divine and Magical Novel" genres in the chapter book novels respectively, has included Luo Guanzhong, while the other major category of "worldly love novels" originated from "Jin Ping Mei", which was adapted from the plot of "Water Margin". It can be argued that Luo Guanzhong was the originator (or at least one of the originators) of the four main categories of classical Chinese novels, which is epoch-making for the development of Chinese novels. Some people even call Luo Guanzhong "the king of ancient Chinese novels".

To Zhengjia Chen will resume, don't come and more than 60 years, I do not know its end. five claims five claims are: Hangzhou, Luling, Central Plains, Dongyuan, Taiyuan. The most popular are Hangzhou, Dongyuan and Taiyuan. Three Kingdoms Hangzhou said: Hangzhou local scholars Zhao Baofeng's "Zhao Baofeng anthology" attached to the list of the sixteenth (the disciples of the sacrifice of Mr. Baofeng text) there is a Luo Ben's name. Hangzhou people think that Luo Ben Luo Guanzhong, but Luo Guanzhong had participated in political activities in many places can not be recognized as one of the official place of origin. Hangzhou can not be established. Dongyuan said out of the Ming Hongzhi six years Yong Yuzi (Jiang Daqi) Mr. Jiang Daqi that in the Dongyuan generation of books, the author of the Dongyuan. Dongyuan said not credible, can not be established. Taiyuan said, from the "renewed book of ghosts" author Anonymous, after examination, the author is Jia Zhongming. From Luo Guanzhong's works found in different locations to analyze, he has traveled to many places, leaving footprints in various places, thus causing one of the reasons for his origin has a variety of claims. It is consistent. At that time, Jia Zhongming put forward "Taiyuan people", Taiyuan is a large area, is the continent, the county people, Jia Zhongming did not put forward. But from the Luo's most concentrated Hewan village found in the genealogy, God paper, protect the beam sign, tomb, ink stone, plaques, etc., the six major evidence. It can be shown that Luo Guanzhong directly belonged to Qixian, which was then under the jurisdiction of Taiyuan. With Shi Nai'an alias "Shi Nai'an" August 2006, held in Shandong, "Luo Guanzhong and" Three Kingdoms "and" Water Margin "International Symposium", 500 experts from home and abroad generally believe that the Water Margin" in the early Ming Dynasty is a banned book, it is impossible to publish the real name, Luo Guanzhong himself is Shandong Dongping people, while Shi Nai'an in the historical data can not be traced. In this case, it is likely that the author published under a nom de plume. In the early Ming Dynasty, Luo Guanzhong signed his name alone, and in the later period, the joint signature of Shi Nai'an and Luo Guanzhong was found. "Shi Nai-an" written upside down is "我乃是", said Shi Nai-an in Shandong accent, pronounced "实乃俺", and according to the custom of many authors at that time to sign their names in their books. According to the custom of many writers at that time, the subtext of "Shi Nai'an - Luo Guanzhong" is probably "I am Luo Guanzhong". After combining the writing characteristics of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Water Margin", some experts believe that these two masterpieces were written by Luo Guanzhong using different ways of collecting works. Master-disciple relationship JI Lianhai does not agree with the "Water Margin" by Luo Guanzhong book alone, he agrees with the widely circulated "Shi Nai'an Luo Guanzhong for the master-disciple relationship," said. He said, Shi Nai-an and Luo Guanzhong is a teacher-student relationship, from the Ming Dynasty Huai'an Wang Daosheng "Shi Nai-an's tomb" and the Qing Dynasty Hu Yinglin "Shaochou Shanfang Pen Cong" and other books. Wang Daosheng said, "Every draft, will be proofread with the disciples, to correct the Ohio fish, and its power in Luo Guanzhong is especially." Hu Yinglin said about the origin of the creation of "Water Margin" that Shi Nai-an "got a Song Zhang Shu-nye captured a thief recitation, know its one hundred and eight people from the beginning, because of the embellishment into this compilation. His disciple, Luo Ben, also followed the example of the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which is absolutely shallow. Luo Guanzhong surname Luo Ben word Guanzhong. Although there are few historical records, but still can be proved that Shi Nai-an, Luo Guanzhong belongs to the end of the Yuan and early Ming Dynasty, Shi Nai-an older than twenty or thirty years old, the two have participated in the Zhang Shicheng uprising. Record ghost book sequel" introduction, Luo Guanzhong "Lefu cryptic language, extremely fresh", so many scholars believe that "Water Margin" in the poems mixed in more than Luo Guanzhong, as the compiler Luo Guanzhong "Water Margin" was revised, so that with the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" part of the plot similarity is also a normal phenomenon.
