Read works of Nai An at 历史大观 |
The two editors on the situation, with the anger back in Naian recorded Zhi found this script, he had already said: "Um really no test name." (Ibid.) and the situation we have today on a no Nai An know. 75 years ago, that is, in 1910, Ding Bingheng finished in the money after this book had suspicions the Nai An, "or the Water Margin shall Shi Nai Down?" (See attached Postscript to the book) but the lack of Zuo Zheng He did not explain further, but doubt it. But I would think that this suspicion was justified. First, the Water Margin is to Hui and Qin dynasties as the background, therefore, Shi Nai careful collection of material in this regard is a matter of course since. Secondly, Song Jiang and other 36 people to paint and also praise Holy Song Early Yuan Gong, and this not only shows the story was very popular Water Margin, but also on its impact is also considerable. How can he know the prototype of the Southern Song Dynasty popular of these stories and the Water Margin Naian not? Posterity is the author of Outlaws of the Marsh found Shi Nai, and this has not necessarily linked? Unless stopped, I thought, compile times this Accounts of Jingkang of Nai An, most likely is the author of Outlaws of the Marsh Shi Nai. In the past, on the Shi Nai's life story, only some things and some descendants forged blurred Pushuo legend, I thought, if true, then, it touches on the compilation of this Accounts of Jingkang times, devoted to his work, and left him write a short preamble.
