The Literary Image of Princess Gaoyang
The Long Song of Levin is one of the series of historical female novels that Zhao Mei wants to write. The subtitle of the novel is "Long song". It seems to express the author's emotional input. Perhaps the ideas expressed in the novel are somewhat different for some readers, but the author always feels stronger feelings this time.
However, in Long Song When Crying, it shows the great power of human nature, which is deeply suppressed by political marriage and religious precepts and strongly rebounds. In fact, Mei Zhao hopes to express his doubts about history from the most primitive proposition of women. This is especially reflected in her thorough synthesis of historical materials and plot structure with psychological deduction as its connotation.
The direct historical materials about Princess Gaoyang are quite limited. However, because of her sensitivity to women, the author found unusual problems and connections in two seemingly independent plain records. Mei Zhao was full of sympathy for Princess Gaoyang, but Princess Gaoyang was deeply criticized by historians. Although the plot she designed is unnecessary, the emotion is also unnecessary, and there are some clues to follow in the historical materials.
Because of her aversion to misplaced political marriage, she poetized her doomed love, which was amazing in beauty and natural in talent. While showing the heroine's warm and painful psychological process, she not only issued the call sign of "Who drove me to this evil abyss" on behalf of the princess, but also cut the perspective into the vertical and horizontal of history.
Princess Gaoyang written by Zhao Mei, as the first aristocratic woman in the Tang Dynasty, gained the tragic character of "singing Long song while crying" at the sacrifice. This unique historical interpretation has every reason to become an important style of historical novels.
