《三国志》与两晋南朝小说野史曹操形象之比较

Comparison of Cao Cao's images in History of Three Kingdoms and the Unofficial History in the Eastern and Western Jin Dynasties and South Dynasty

《三国志》着力描写曹操的文治武功和卓越才能,表现曹操的旷世奇异和济世之才。而两晋南朝的小说野史却毫无讳言曹操缺点,将曹操塑造成一个放纵不拘、奸诈无信、自私残酷的反面人物。两者皆事出有因。

History of Three Kingdoms is focused on the outstanding capabilities of Cao Cao, while the unofficial history in East- ern and Western Jin Dynasties and South Dynasty gives the indisputable depiction of Cao＇ s shortcomings which presents Cao even as a wantonly treacherous self-interest villain. The two types have their causes.
