From the perspective of modern humanistic thought, this book explores the cultural connotation and cultural effect of the novel from the novel's creative process, narrative method, characters and the evolution of red science. The author believes that the relationship between "A Dream of Red Mansions" and Chinese culture is twofold. On the one hand, it presents various aspects of Chinese culture and goes into details. On the other hand, it also issues a profound protest against Chinese tradition, especially the Confucian etiquette culture, and expresses the vague expectation of transformation from ethical culture (rationality, family and country norms) to aesthetic culture (sensibility, individuality, freedom). This book was carefully written by the author over many years. It can be used as a reference for readers of "Dream of Red Mansions" and lovers and researchers of Red Mansions.
