Thesis (Ph.D.)--Harvard University, 1986.

Dream of Red Chamber (Honglou meng) distinguishes itself from previous works of Chinese fiction in one fundamental aspect: its unified vision. This is achieved despite its myriad characters and apparently episodic structure. Chapter I, "Point of View and Sympathy", examines the control of point of view by which an expansive sympathy is extended to a large cast of characters while establishing the centrality of Bao-yu's norms. His devotion to feeling, echoed in kindred spirits, is nevertheless qualified by the pervasive presence of characters with more traditional inclinations.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Dream of Red Chamber (Honglou meng) distinguishes itself from previous works of Chinese fiction in one fundamental aspect: its unified vision. This is achieved despite its myriad characters and apparently episodic structure. Chapter I, "Point of View and Sympathy", examines the control of point of view by which an expansive sympathy is extended to a large cast of characters while establishing the centrality of Bao-yu's norms. His devotion to feeling, echoed in kindred spirits, is nevertheless qualified by the pervasive presence of characters with more traditional inclinations.
520 $a The balance of sympathies is largely achieved by the consistent use of a pattern of counterpoise, discussed in Chapter 2. Thus characters, scenes and episodes are juxtaposed in various combinations and configurations to demonstrate differences in outlook, temperament and norms. Bao-yu's world of qing (feeling) is contrasted with the masculine world of yin (lust); within this opposition individual characters find their place in an implied system of values. The contrapuntal motif is a sustained feature of the novel's structure that embodies the picture of a conflicting world, imperfect and inconstant.
520 $a What reconciles the oppositions and conflicts is the author's overarching view of life. Clues to the author's view are found primarily in the symbolism ubiquitously planted in the novel, the subject of Chapter 3. The omens and foreshadowing contained in images and symbolic scenes, dialogues and descriptions, the meaning of which escapes the characters themselves, create an ironic distance between the fictional world and the reader's perception. Together such symbols form a view that nullifies all human aspirations and emotional attachments, a view forewarned by the prefatory myth of the Stone. The flowers embalmed in the moonlight, the Garden that is nothing more than a grave-garth, and the once-prosperous Jia family eventually turning into a burial mound are the stark images that remain.
520 $a This is the view that poses a final challenge to Bao-yu's love. It is a vision of feeling nevertheless, a tragic view that recalls moments of happiness with nostalgia and anticipates the brevity of life with regret.
