从尤二姐与李瓶儿之死的同异看《红楼梦》之“深得金瓶壸奥”

A Comparison between Dreams in Red Mansions and Jin Ping Mei: On the Differences and Similarities between the Death of You Erjie and Li Pinger

作为当世显学,《红楼梦》与《金瓶梅》之间的比较研究尤为惹人注目。"《红楼梦》的成书深受《金瓶梅》的启发"这一说法已成定论,自不待言。然而,偏激者诸如"脱胎说"、"倒影说"仍占一定地位,不无影响。姑且撇开这类论断于整部《红楼梦》是否确当,若以个别章节、情节观之,实有道理。通过尤二姐与李瓶儿之死的比较,可观《红楼梦》之"深得金瓶奥"。

As an outstanding subject, the comparison between Dreams in Red Mansions and Jin Ping Mei attracts a great deal of attention, the saying that the form of Dreams in Red Mansions is enlightened by Jin Ping Mei becomes a definite view. But the prejudice as to theory 'being born out of' and 'shadow' has a certain influence. Put aside this kind of judgment whether to be right or not for the whole work, it's reasonable if we only consider it from a specific chapter or a certain plot. The essay intends to probe into the saying that how Dreams in Red Mansions get the essence from Jin Ping Mei according to the death of You Erjie and Lin Pinger's.
