About This Novel

The dream in "Dream of Red Mansions" is a dream of mythical archetype. The fate of the characters in "Dream of Red Mansions" is not only a repetition of their dreams but also a repetition of mythical archetype. The tragic fate of women in Red Mansions re-enacts Jia Baoyu's "Dream of Taixu Dream" and the dreams of Lin Daiyu and others. In fact, it is a re-enactment of the historical prototype of women's tragic fate. Before Western theorists revealed the secrets of dream and myth archetypes, Cao Xueqin used dreams and myth archetypes to create "A Dream of Red Mansions", which undoubtedly shows Cao Xueqin's advancement and greatness.
