Abstract

The iceberg theory created by American family education psychologist Vonia (Virginia Satir), which refers to a person's "self" is like an iceberg, we can see only a few part of the actions on the surface. Analyze Lin Daiyu in a Dream of Red Mansions with the help of iceberg theory. A Dream of Red Mansions is based on the rise and fall of the four major families in the feudal society. The characters in the book are highly personalized. Among them, Lin Daiyu is a very controversial figure, she is sentimental, naturally withdrawn, opposed to feudalism, the pursuit of free love. Through our research, we find that Lin Daiyu is a person who expects to get love, desires to be accepted, and at the same time has a strong sense of self-awareness and pursues freedom. With the help of the iceberg theory of Lin Daiyu, the charm of the characters will be felt more deeply.
