On the Commentaries of Zhiyanzhai on A Dream of Red Mansions

脂砚斋是与《红楼梦》作者曹雪芹关系密切、情投意合的人,其辈位稍高于曹雪芹。脂砚斋对《红楼梦》的评点,对后人研究《红楼梦》具有重要的积极作用,同时也有一定的局限性。

Zhiyanzhai ranked a little higher in family seniority than Cao Xueqin.the author of the novel A Dream of Red Mansions , and was a bosom friend of his. Zhiyanzhai' s commentaries on A Dream of Red Mansions have played a positive role in later studies of the novel, yet they have also shown their limitations.
