-Xiangzi Camel
Gulliver, like Robinson, is an adventurous person who doesn't want to be lonely and bored. He has a strong memory, is good at learning and observing, is good at thinking, has a unique thinking, is simple and gentle, is friendly to people, behaves appropriately, is easy to associate with people, is grateful and kind, has the style of a gentleman, is willing to help friends, is willing to risk his life for friends, and is ready to fight against all those who are unfavorable to friends at any time. At the same time, he is smart and brave, smooth and reasonable, clever in speaking, resolute in doing things, able to improvise, seize every opportunity to pursue freedom, have strong self-confidence and believe that he can succeed. He is frank, patriotic and very tolerant of his face. He is full of hatred, disgust and contempt for those who are hostile to him, but he respects noble people and learned scholars. Generally speaking, he is a traveler with questioning spirit, passion for truth and endurance. During his travels, he gained insight into the deterioration of social reality and came to the conclusion that British society was uncivilized. Gulliver's image is the embodiment of the author's thought. The author endowed his characters with various virtues. Gulliver cares about others and doesn't care about personal gain or loss. Gulliver is a positive ideal figure. He always talks frankly about his weaknesses and mistakes, but says nothing about his strengths. He is modest and eager to learn, trying to understand the new reality with new eyes. He never gave up on himself. Even though he is regarded as a plaything everywhere, he still keeps calm, maintains his dignity and talks with the king of Great Britain on an equal footing. He had the courage to help Lilliputian resist foreign invasion, but he flatly refused to help Lilliputian king's aggressive expansion policy.
Romantic Lin Daiyu
The first beauty in the Grand View Garden is undoubtedly Daiyu. I know someone will raise their hand immediately, because the beauty of Lin Daiyu is out of fashion today, and even the book has never said that Daiyu is the most beautiful, but praised Baochai for her "beautiful appearance, and everyone says that Daiyu is not as good as it is." But don't let the author deceive you. A lot of pen and ink in A Dream of Red Mansions are cunning and unusual.
No matter where Dai Yu is described in the book, pen and ink are the most ethereal, trying to simulate the beauty of her "realm". In fact, the author never wrote down her facial features and figure one by one. Even though she just came to power and spent a period of time arranging and rendering (this kind of classical long rhetoric is rare in A Dream of Red Mansions), only her eyebrows will always leave an impression on us.
"Two bends are like frowns, and a pair of eyes are like happy eyes. When you are in a state of anxiety, you will be attacked by diseases ... You are like a beautiful flower when you are quiet, and your actions are like a weak willow. " Even with such a detailed description, you can't tell whether Daiyu's eyebrows are mountain eyebrows or crescent eyebrows, and whether her eyes are single eyelids or double eyelids. This seems to have no effect on Daiyu's beauty.
In the eyes of the Jia family, everyone said, "Although Daiyu is young, has good manners and is timid, she has a natural romantic attitude." It will always be an "attitude" towards Daiyu, which is beautiful but unclear. Just think about that wonderful passage in "Quiet Nineteen Days". It's not the first-class beauty that makes Daiyu laugh! There are so many such words in the book that I can only cite a few.
First, at the end of 26 years, Daiyu was rejected by Yuan and misunderstood Baoyu:
..... regardless of the moss dew cold, flower diameter cold, independent corner of the flower shade, sad sob. It turned out that Lin Daiyu was as beautiful as a fairy, and it was rare to see her. I didn't expect this cry. The birds and crows on the nearby willow flowers flew away when they heard this, and they couldn't bear to listen. True: the flower soul is silent, and the bird dreams. Because there is a poem that says: "Every son's talent and appearance should be rare in the world. He will hold a delicate fragrance alone and make an embroidered boudoir. Still sobbing, birds are flying all over the ground. "
Isn't this poetic "sinking fish and falling geese"?
One is to bury flowers 27 times. The day of flower burial is the Mang Seed Festival, that is, the day of sending flowers to the gods. The first one in front touched the atmosphere, wrote it far away and slowly, and finally returned it to Baoyu:
..... Because I looked down and saw many colorful fallen flowers such as Impatiens and Pomegranates. Brocade fell heavily on the floor. Because he sighed, "this is because he was angry and didn't pick up the flowers." I'll ask him when I deliver it tomorrow. " Say ... and put the flowers in your pocket. Climb mountains and water, trees and flowers, and run to the place where Lin Daiyu and I buried peach blossoms that day. I will arrive in Hua Zhong, but I haven't turned the hillside yet, only the sound of sobbing on the hillside. ...
Baoyu listened to Daiyu's cry, read the mourning words again, and then "fell down the hillside." In this section, I actually wrote two people. Although I didn't say much about Daiyu, Baoyu didn't feel afraid of falling down in the place where "the flowers and shadows never leave, and the birds only whisper in his ears", and wrote the sad beauty of Daiyu's crying.
It was the sixteenth time, when Lin Ruhai died, and Daiyu came home mourning, Baoyu greeted him, "My heart is getting more and more detached." It should be noted that at this time, Daiyu is a dutiful son, white and sympathetic, how pitiful and lovely. Qin Xue didn't know what to say. He just used the word "detachment" to tell himself that he was leaving.
However, to prove the beauty of Daiyu, we can't just look into Baoyu's eyes. He naturally thinks Daiyu is the most beautiful. Then look at it in a different way. Mr. Lu Xun has a quip that Jiao Da of Jiafu will never fall in love with Sister Lin. In fact, the beauty I like will only be Lin's sister, not Lin's filial piety. This truth, like in Desire, prefers the king to the king.
Whose eyes are you changing? Xue Pan, that idiot. Twenty-five ghosts met, Baoyu and Xifeng suddenly fell ill, and the Grand View Garden was in a mess.
..... Needless to say, others are flustered. Only Xue Pan is busier than others: afraid that Aunt Xue will be crushed, afraid that Xue Baochai will be seen, and afraid that Xiangling will be humiliated-knowing that Jia Zhen and others are working hard on women. So busy. Suddenly I caught a glimpse of Lin Daiyu's romance, and she was already lying there. ...
This passage has been completely deleted from the textbook. Mr. Cheng and Mr. Gao, two old gentlemen, feel that playing with pen and ink at critical moments is too flashy; I felt wretched again and lost Daiyu at once. But that's the beauty. A lecherous bully, who doesn't know anything about spiritual beauty, can recognize Daiyu's good-looking appearance at a glance only by her appearance. Daiyu is a first-class beauty. Needless to say.
The word romance can describe Daiyu tactfully. Moreover, Baoyu was in a dreamland and described Ke Qing as "charming and graceful, like Daiyu".
Sixty-two times, Tanchun talked about everyone's birthdays and said that there was no birthday in February. Aroma quickly said, "It's Miss Lin on February 12th. Why is there no one? Just not our family. " Don't underestimate this sentence, it contains a lot of information. First, Tanchun is smart and capable. Everyone casually reports their birthdays, except Daiyu. It can be seen that Daiyu has been in Jia's family for many years and has never celebrated her birthday solemnly, otherwise Tanchun would not have no impression. If you refer to Xifeng and Baochai's birthdays, you will know for yourself. Secondly, xiren hates Daiyu, most afraid of her marrying Baoyu, and her inner rejection has been revealed in the sentence "not our family". Although Daiyu lived alone, she was also the eldest grandson of the Jia family. According to the standards at that time, she was closer than Baochai and the Jia family. She lives in Jiafu, which is more natural than Baochai. Tanchun mentioned Baochai and didn't even think it was "not our family's", but xiren maliciously pointed it out. Third, this is the only time in the book that Daiyu's birthday is stipulated. February 12th of the lunar calendar is the Flower Festival-the birthday of the flower god. Some people don't understand why xiren and Daiyu are the same Amanome. In fact, xiren's surname is Hua. Let her be in Amanome with Daiyu, just to remind her of the Flower Festival. In the author's mind, the flower god of Daguan Garden is Daiyu.
Also, the appellation of Xiaoxiang Pavilion and Baoyu is "Feng", which means "Ode to a Saint". In order to keep a low profile, Yuan Chun was named Xiaoxiang Pavilion. The bamboo pole in front of the door is green, the phoenix tail is dense, and the dragon tail is thin. Dai Yu lives here. Isn't Dai Yu compared to the Phoenix? Daiyu's Princess Xiaoxiang compares Daiyu to the goddess of moths and English.
In short, the author did not say that Daiyu was the most beautiful in public, or even criticized Daiyu for not being beautiful enough, but secretly dedicated all the most beautiful words to her. His description of Daiyu is really painstaking, and he wants to deceive people, but he is afraid of being cheated. Modern people are more utilitarian, and they like Baochai far more than Daiyu. However, after the publication of A Dream of Red Mansions, in the first 100 years, few readers were deceived, and far more people praised Daiyu than Baochai.
Celebrity romance Shi Xiangyun
Xiangyun is a very powerful figure in the Red Chamber. Since the existence of the word world, it has been deeply loved by readers. In the minds of many readers, it even surpassed Baochai and Daiyu, who "two peaks stand side by side and two streams diverge". There is a simple reason. Daiyu is thoughtful and Baochai is resourceful. Both of them belong to "more troublesome" girls. Being with them for a long time will inevitably make you tired. And "Han" Xiangyun, open-minded, cheerful, the easiest to get along with, naturally popular.
Xiangyun appeared in such a hurry that she didn't even give a good account of her life. We only know that she is Shi Ding's niece and grandmother's granddaughter. Although the family background is prominent, it has declined; And both parents are dead and depend on others to support them.
The book does not describe Xiangyun's appearance, but emphasizes his expression.
Xiangyun is very young. The first description of her appearance in the book was in bed.
..... I saw his two sisters still lying in bed. Lin Daiyu was tightly wrapped in an apricot HongLing quilt and fell asleep peacefully with her eyes closed. Shi Xiangyun dragged her hair to the pillow, with her left chest high, white arms bent and two gold bracelets. Baoyu saw this and sighed, "It's still dishonest to sleep! When I came back, when the wind blew, I cried and my shoulders ached. " As he spoke, he gently covered him. ...
This kind of "bed shot" in the book makes people laugh. It is tempting to create a scene, but the characters and readers of the novel will not notice it at all, because pen and ink are naive. For example, Baoyu broke into the boudoir, which is forbidden by this etiquette. Xiangyun's posture is really provocative, but Baoyu has no desire for sex. Xiangyun's "bent white arm" only means naughty, not sexual, which is quite different from Baochai's "white arm". This shows that Xiangyun's skin is very white. But it was common for ladies at that time, not special.
Let readers feel the beauty of auspicious clouds is sixty-two chapters of Drunk Peony;
..... I saw a little girl coming with a big smile on her face: "Look at Miss Yun, drunk and cold, and fell asleep on the bluestone bench behind the mountain." Everyone laughed and said, "Stop arguing." Along the way, I saw Xiangyun lying on a stone bench in a secluded place on the rock, dreaming fragrant dreams. Peony flowers were flying all around, and the red fragrance was scattered all over her face. She was holding a fan in the ground and half buried in the fallen flowers. A group of bees and butterflies clamored around him, and a bag of peony petals was wrapped in a shark handkerchief as a pillow. Everyone saw it, and they all loved and laughed. They hurried forward for help. ...
At that time, Xiangyun was still in a daze shouting drinkers' wager game!
With this touching picture of flowers intoxicated, the image of Xiangyun suddenly became clear. Wang Meng praised this as a very successful description in the book and called Xiangyun "the son of nature". On his sixty-third birthday, Xiangyun drew a flower logo of Haitang, which read "I'm afraid the flowers will fall asleep at night", and borrowed Daiyu's words: "The word" late at night "was changed to" cool stone ". Remind me to review the previous article and compare Xiangyun to a begonia flower with a sweet dream. Its beauty in appearance and manner is comparable to that of Daiyu Baochai. No wonder the author arranged for her to come from behind when singing Bai Haitang's poems. Bai Haitang is a portrayal of her spirit.
Xiangyun likes playing tomboy best. Jia Mu once mistook Xiangyun for Baoyu. Forty-nine times of "Glazed Glass World, Snow White and Red Plum", referring to the artistic conception in the painting, are meticulously carved, and the pen and ink are extravagant, always writing colorful flowers, among which Xiangyun is the most prominent:
..... Daiyu put on a pinch of gold and a mass of red lamb boots, wrapped a crane in a white fox with red feather yarn, tied a blue, gold, flashing green and double-ring sash, and put on a snow hat on her head. They walked through the snow together. I saw all the sisters over there, all orangutans blankets and feather satin cloaks. Only Li Wan wore a blue double-breasted coat, and Xue Baochai wore a lotus-green bucket pattern on the icing on the cake. Xing Xiuyan is still a homely old clothes, and there is no cover in the snow. At this time, Shi Xiangyun came, wearing a mink coat with a big head and a big face, a black squirrel lining with a fever inside and outside, a film with a golden orangutan felt and a big mink collar. Daiyu said with a smile, "Look, here comes Monkey. He usually holds a snow jacket in his hand and deliberately pretends to be a little slut. " Xiangyun said with a smile, "Look what I'm wearing." He took off his jacket as he spoke. I saw him wearing a semi-new five-color embroidered dragon mattress in Qiu Xiangse and a short coat with a silver mouse mask in small sleeve. There is a pink satin fox short wrinkle inside, a bow with five colors of spikes at the waist and a pair of deerskin boots at the foot. The more obvious, the more elegant. Everyone laughed: "He only likes to dress up as a boy, but he is more handsome than his daughter." ……
"Bee-waist ape back, crane shape" means tall, slender limbs, wide shoulders and thin waist, which is the standard figure of today's fashion models. With its unique and beautiful costume, standing in the snow, Xiangyun's delicate and charming is the first.
Xiangyun and Baoyu ate venison, and Daiyu laughed at them. Xiangyun sneered, "What do you know? It's true celebrities who love themselves, and you're all hypocritical and disgusting. At the moment we are eating and chewing, but when we come back, our hearts and mouths are full. " The author focuses on depicting Xiangyun, a "celebrity", and shows his charm and charm in the wild. The aesthetic tendency of A Dream of Red Mansions is to return to the era of Shi Shuo Xin Yu. The ideal characters in the book all reflect the Jin people's pursuit of Shen Feng. This is a call for the beauty of personality that tends to be shattered under extreme autocracy.
However, I don't particularly like Xiangyun, which is why. Xiangyun's imitation is too heavy. The celebrity's style and her childishness don't blend together, but her credibility is reduced. I think the image of Xiangyun is becoming more and more vital, and the poems of concave crystal pavilion are beginning to blossom in an all-round way. It's a pity that it's coming to an end, and her image is bound to improve again in the last forty times, but unfortunately we will never see it again. The sequel only gave us a pale and vague shadow.
Zhifu believes that Xiangyun is the most beautiful prototype of people in the Grand View Garden, and the prototype of Daiyu is more common. This is particularly interesting. The images of Baoyu and Daiyu in the book were formed at the latest, because the author's love and ideal are farthest from the prototype. Moreover, many lost scholars believe that Xiangyun married Baoyu in the last forty drafts and finally separated. I think it's not impossible. Back in the 1980s, Baoyu and Xiangyun were very close, but there was no love at all. Baoyu envies Baochai's body, but Xiangyun has no desire to attract him, which can be seen from the 21st time. They are pure good brothers and good friends. However, after the downfall of Jiafu, the wandering Baoyu and Xiangyun met by chance, warmed each other in despair, and finally separated, which is really a first-class bleak writing. I don't doubt that Qin Xue's brilliant pen will write such a plot, but I laugh at the literati using the so-called "Old Truth of a Dream of Red Mansions" or looking for some words from books, just laying the groundwork for Xiangyun to marry Baoyu.
Jia Tanchun, the essence of literary talent.
The third time, Lin Daiyu entered Guo Rongfu and met three sisters. Although it is not stated in the book, everyone can see which one it is written. Among them, who is not Tan Chun who "cuts shoulders and thin waist, picks up a long figure, looks like a duck's egg, looks very happy, looks literary and forgets customs"? .
Back to sixty-five, the news leaked from Xinger's mouth. Tanchun was nicknamed "Rose", "Red is fragrant, everyone loves it, but it pricks the hand". It is said that "Phoenix comes from the old woman's nest" is vulgar, but it can also be seen that Tanchun's beauty is recognized by the whole family.
With the current popular aesthetics, Tanchun's duck egg face and narrow shoulders are a bit out of date, but tall and slim, slender waist and long eyebrows are what modern girls dream of. As for a pair of handsome eyes, it's up to you to imagine what is handsome. In the words of the crown, it is said that "water opens the eyes", and there are many elements of "charm" and few elements of "handsome". Tanchun's "Looking forward to Flying" is full of confidence and courage.
Tanchun and Xifeng lack vitality in this declining aristocratic family, a kind of "leopard spirit". But Tanchun is more beautiful than Xifeng. She is full of poetry and painting. Imagine the association origin of Haitang Society. Her letter to Baoyu won the welcome of Jin people. Tanchun's temperament is very similar to Xie Daowen's. How many Xie Daowen can the essence of thousands of years' traditional culture in China give birth to? "The essence of literary talent, forget the vulgarity when you see it" is Tanchun's mantra.
On the day of Jia's downfall, he said, "If this man is here, future generations will not be displaced." This comment is no small matter. Imagine how much critics and authors admire a woman who saves her children and grandchildren in the boudoir when the tree is gone.
Tanchun was ambitious, but he was born in the wrong era. Her flower-signing poem is the apricot blossom of Xian Pin in Yaochi, which reads "Red apricot is planted by the cloud on the edge of the sun" and says "whoever gets this sign will get rich." Many researchers pointed out that Tanchun eventually married overseas and even became a princess of a vassal. She once sighed: "If I were a man, I would have gone out long ago." Finally, she walked out of the house that completely disappointed her, but where could she go? It's not just that you can only walk into another man's shelter, leaving only a sad scene of "separation of flesh and blood", which makes people sad.
Today's Tanchun must be like Yi Shu's favorite heroine. Young and beautiful, but not for beauty, sitting in a luxurious office in central, all-powerful, outstanding performance, peer men smell the color change; First-class taste, luxury but low-key, flying to Paris for vacation is old-fashioned for them ... Only Tanchun today is as difficult to get rid of the embarrassing situation as Tanchun in that year, and it is so excellent that no man can afford it. Disdain to cling to the rich, nor can you yield to the poor. Men of the same class are vulgar and boring. I had to smile noble and lonely, waiting for the fate of heaven to open their hearts. Fortunately, they know how to take care of themselves. They will always be young and beautiful, and together with the sycophant queen movie stars, hold up the glory of this city.
, "resurrection" of Maslova:
Women wear linen socks, prisoners wear cotton shoes and white headscarves on their heads. Obviously, she deliberately let a few wisps of black curls emerge from the headscarf. Her face is unusually pale, just like a new potato bud stored in the cellar. That's a common problem for people who have been in prison for a long time. Her short, wide hands and plump neck exposed from the wide neckline of the prison uniform are also so pale. Her eyes, set off by her pale, dull face, look particularly black and shiny. Although it is a little swollen, it is very elastic. One of the eyes squinted slightly. She stood upright, her plump breasts bulging high. She came to the corridor, looked up slightly, stared at the warden's eyes and showed a submissive expression. The warden was about to close the door when an old white-haired woman without a headscarf poked her head out of her cell, her face grim, pale and wrinkled. The old woman said a few words to Maslova. The warden put the prison door against the old woman's head and separated them. Women's laughter rang out from the cell. Maslova also smiled and turned and left the small window with iron bars on the prison door. The old woman approached the window and said in a hoarse voice:
"Don't bother them, just insist on not rescheduling."
"As long as there is an ending, it can't be worse than it is now," Maslova said, shaking his head.
Notre Dame de Paris, quasimodo:
Sure enough, at this moment, the grotesque figure came out from the round hole of the petal lattice window and shone brightly.
The colors are dazzling and wonderful. Carnival stimulates people's imagination, and they all have a spectrum of what is the ideal grotesque face. But so far, the pentagons, hexagons and irregular surfaces drilled from the window holes can't meet their requirements. At this time, a wonderful ugly face suddenly appeared, which dazzled the audience and won the championship in one fell swoop. King Copnoel personally applauded; Clopin Trouvat took part in the competition, and his face was so ugly that he had to give up. We are also ashamed of ourselves. We don't want to describe the tetrahedral nose, horseshoe-shaped mouth, small left eye blocked by thatched brown eyebrows, right eye completely covered by a large tumor, castle-like upper and lower rows of broken teeth, lips covered with pulp residue and showing an ivory incisor, cracked chin, and especially the expression that hangs over all this. If possible, please read all this together and think about it!
The audience cheered unanimously. Everyone rushed to the chapel, and someone carried out the truly blessed crazy Pope. At this time, when everyone saw it, they were surprised beyond measure and marveled: this strange face was his true face!
More appropriately, he is a strange face. A big red head.
Brown hair stands up; There is a huge hump between the shoulders, corresponding to the hump of the chicken breast in front; The thighs and calves are twisting around, not in the same position. Only the knees between the legs can barely come together. From the front, they look like two crescent-shaped sickles, but their handles are connected together; Wide pedals, huge palms; Moreover, such a deformed body has an unspeakable terrible posture: energetic, agile and brave. Both strength and beauty come from harmony, which is an eternal law, but this is an exception, very strange! This is the pope just elected by the lunatics.
