The Sing-song Girls of Shanghai pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
Desire, virtue, courtesans (also known as sing-song girls), and the denizens of Shanghai's pleasure quarters are just some of the elements that constitute Han Bangqing's extraordinary novel of late imperial China. Han's richly textured, panoramic view of late-nineteenth-century Shanghai follows a range of characters from beautiful sing-song girls to lower-class prostitutes and from men in positions of social authority to criminals and ambitious young men recently arrived from the country. Considered one of the greatest works of Chinese fiction, The Sing-song Girls of Shanghai is now available for the first time in English. Neither sentimental nor sensationalistic in its portrayal of courtesans and their male patrons, Han's work inquires into the moral and psychological consequences of desire. Han, himself a frequent habitue of Shanghai brothels, reveals a world populated by lonely souls who seek consolation amid the pleasures and decadence of Shanghai's demimonde. He describes the romantic games played by sing-song girls to lure men, as well as the tragic consequences faced by those who unexpectedly fall in love with their customers. Han also tells the stories of male patrons who find themselves emotionally trapped between desire and their sense of propriety. First published in 1892, and made into a film by Hou Hsiao-hsien in 1998, The Sing-song Girls of Shanghai is recognized as a pioneering work of Chinese fiction in its use of psychological realism and its infusion of modernist sensibilities into the traditional genre of courtesan fiction. The novel's stature has grown with the recent discovery of Eileen Chang's previously unknown translation, which was unearthed among her papers at the University of Southern California. Chang, who lived in Shanghai until 1956 when she moved to California and began to write in English, is one of the most acclaimed Chinese writers of the twentieth century.

鲁迅在《中国小说史略》中言及:清末促狭小说实宗于《红楼梦》,“摹绘柔情,敷陈艳迹,精神所在,实无不同……”,而自《海上花列传》始,“实写妓家,曝其奸谲……而红楼梦在促狭小说之泽,亦自此而斩也。” 《海上花列传》,有红楼梦的面子,却是儒林外史的里子...
评分在《海上花列传》中,其实帮衬的地位如名士名妓同样重要。书中帮衬的代表人物是洪善卿。洪善卿是个性格复杂的人物,他是商人,又是帮闲。为了生意的需要,他到妓院随嫖客奔波,为其做掮客,但从内心并不认同妓院生活,因此在名士们花天酒地酩酊大醉时,他能保持清醒,在沈小红...
评分1892年,韩邦庆在其主笔的通俗刊物《海上奇书》上连载了《花国春秋》(后改名为《海上花列传》)为署名“花也怜侬”。1894年刊印石印本,书名即《海上花列传》,在这之后,以上海狭邪故事为题材的长篇小说也大量涌现,用与“上海”有关的字词命名的就有《海上尘天影》、《海上...
