The Birth of Water Margin: What Kind of Robbery Book
by Sun Shuyu
About This Novel
This book places "Water Margin" in the context of the war between the Song and Jin Dynasties, and brilliantly uses the method of historical textual research and literary research to break the impression that readers in the past generally believed that the story of Water Margin was based on the Huainan pirates in the late Northern Song Dynasty, and reveals the story of "Water Margin". The origins of "The Biography" are inextricably linked to the history of the Southern Song Dynasty's resistance to the Jin Dynasty, especially to Yue Fei and the loyal people who fought against the Jin Dynasty with civilian armed forces in the early Southern Song Dynasty. Yue Fei's loyalty to the country and his unjust imprisonment were perhaps the biggest driving force behind the creation of "Water Margin". This book is divided into three parts: "The origin of "Water Margin"", "People and things inside and outside "Water Margin"", and "Psychology and art". It uses a lot of pen and ink to examine the relationship between the characters, places, and events in the novel and real history and geography. It examines the tragic deeds of the prototype characters in the novel. It also analyzes the artistic characteristics of "Water Margin" and further proves that the real people and things in history cast a large shadow in "Water Margin".
