On the Artistic Charm in “A Dream of Red Mansions”

Abstract

Artistic Charm is the aesthetic ideal of classical art. It is the spiritual home of Asians pursuing free life. It is not only ancient and modern writers and artists who adopt aesthetic standards when writing, but ancient and modern art critics when reviewing merits. Artistic charm is not only rich in flavor, but also leads readers to meaningful afterthoughts. This article makes a detailed discussion about artistic charm on “A tipsy Xiang-Yun sleeping”, “San-Jie Suicide”, “Tan-Chun marrying”, and “Dai-Yu burying fallen flowers”, which are selected from A Dream of Red Mansions. Keywords—A Dream of Red Mansions; Artistic charm;
