Chapter 530: The Vigorous Praise of Academic Champions

“…… Lu Su of Wu seems to be one of the members of the Water Mirror Group, and he has done everything possible to promote the alliance between Wu and Shu. Zhou Yu died, and Lu Su took over as the governor, and it seemed that he had a more tacit understanding with Kong Ming. Cao Cao's advisor Xu Yuanzhi, not to mention, he was originally arranged for Liu Bei by Mr. Shui Jing, and was later deceived by Cao Cao's tricks. Pang Tong and Zhuge Jin, on the surface, one in Shu and the other in Wu, are actually important people in the Water Mirror Group. The most unbelievable thing is Sima Yi, who rose and fell and became Kong Ming's main opponent, but at the right time, he shouldered the heavy responsibility of the Water Mirror Group. He endured all kinds of patience, self-scandalization, ridicule and curse, all in order to dominate the world and complete the task of the Water Mirror Group......"

I have to say that Ren Miyazawa of Huaxia University also has his own very unique views on analyzing "Three Kingdoms" around the "Water Mirror Group", and he is worthy of being the winner of the Lucien Literary Award.

Of course, although Ren Miyazawa analyzed "Three Kingdoms" and vaguely revealed his love for this masterpiece and his appreciation for Wu Di himself, he did not praise this book too explicitly, after all, he is a writer who admires foreign culture very much, and has always felt that Chinese culture should be integrated with foreign culture, and the two can only be combined most closely to reach the highest level.

And Yun Mushan, Ren Miyazawa's former best friend, has always insisted that Chinese culture is pure, and the two parted ways due to differences in ideas, but the status of the two in the literary world is a real academic master.

Different from Ren Miyazawa's obscurity, Yun Mushan's evaluation of "Three Kingdoms" is very high, and he does not hesitate to praise Wu Di, obviously this also has the meaning of building momentum for Wu Di, he is warning those academic judges, don't be careful, my disciple Wu Di's "Three Kingdoms" will definitely be able to win the Dun Spear Literature Award in one fell swoop by virtue of its strength. If something goes out, hum......

He evaluated "Three Kingdoms" from a macro perspective, which seemed very open-minded: "I will evaluate this epic work from four major aspects: first, literary achievements; 2. Artistic characteristics; 3. Aesthetic Criticism; Fourth, social impact. ”

"The work "Three Kingdoms", in a nutshell, describes the historical situation of nearly 100 years from the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the early years of the Western Jin Dynasty. The book reflects the political and military struggles of the Three Kingdoms period. It reflects the infiltration and transformation of various social contradictions in the Three Kingdoms era, summarizes the great historical changes of this era, and shapes a group of heroes who are dominant. ”

In fact, if you want to say that the literary achievements of "Three Kingdoms" are obviously not as good as the "Official History of the Three Kingdoms", many of the essays and poems in it are worth pondering. I suggest that an elective course on the study of the "Official History of the Three Kingdoms" be opened in the university, and those poems and texts can be carefully analyzed, so that more college students can know its literary value. Readability, of course. It must be the "Three Kingdoms" series of novels that is strong, it is bright and smooth, and it is appreciated by both the elegant and the vulgar; The brushwork is full of variety, contrast, side-redundant, twists and turns, swaying and colorful. With a magnificent structure, the complicated and intricate events and numerous characters of the hundred years or so are organized completely and rigorously. The narrative is methodical, resonant, and interconnected. The rings are tightly linked, and the layers are promoted. Its artistic achievements are more important in the military-political depiction and character building. Fiction is the best at describing wars, and can write about the characteristics of each war. Attention should be paid to describing the application of different strategies and tactics under specific conditions and guiding the development of subjective initiative in operations, rather than spending the main pen and ink on simple strength and martial arts contests......"

"Artistic features...... Wu Di integrates two different levels of culture, elegance and vulgarity, and twists them according to his own subject understanding, values, and artistic likes and dislikes. So that the work has a very rich cultural connotation. In the "Three Kingdoms" series of novels, there is not only the refraction of the ideology of the upper ruling class, but also the precipitation of vast and deep folk thoughts. It is a visual history of the rise and fall of the Three Kingdoms, and it is also a political and military history in the eyes of the people......"

“…… Unfortunately, the Three Kingdoms series of novels does not allow us to read the possibility of this philosophical meaning of historical and literary identity. Thereupon. The reader is presented with a depressing state of mind: the differences between history and literature that should be distinguished are confused, and correspondingly, the historical rationality that should be related to identity is severed or absent. Therefore, "Three Kingdoms" fatalizes the choice of such a sloppy and vulgar view of history: all forms of history are nothing more than hidden mechanical movements of national politics and the logical cycle of power. In other words, history is nothing more than an arena of violence and power, a transformation and balance of various social forces under the curtain of intrigue and power. In all narrative scenes, the impartiality or historical rationality of history is dissolved and eroded, and only the remnants of the chaotic historical story and the fragments of the accidental appear to become the protagonists of history. This is the essential gap between the "Three Kingdoms" series of novels and the "Official History of the Three Kingdoms". A scholar who is interested in studying the Three Kingdoms hopes that he can abandon the novel and use the "Official History of the Three Kingdoms" as the main basis......"

“…… As for the social impact, I think it will become more and more huge with the passage of time, because "Three Kingdoms" itself not only has the value of research, but also has the entertainment value of extending out, this is a novel that takes into account both commercial and artistic perfection, and can even be said to be the best alternate history work of our time! ”

Yun Mushan's comments are almost written for those authors in the literary world and college students in the Chinese department, he writes very academically, and such comments also raise the "Three Kingdoms" series very high, and some literati who were originally disdained because the author is a young writer like Wu Di finally let go of their pride and began to read this work carefully.

Originally, these literati thought that Wu Di's work about the troubled times was written based on the disputes of many countries in ancient times, but after reading it, they found that these Three Kingdoms turned out to be a real alternate history, and she even perfectly set up the folk customs and social structure at that time!

Moreover, what happens every year, "The Official History of the Three Kingdoms" is clearly written, and there is not a trace of logical error, it is this kind of meticulousness that makes this alternate history realistic to the extreme!

Some worrisome literati even worry that as the influence of this historical work grows, future generations will take this history as true and forget the original history...... (To be continued......)
