论吕布形象单一化的演变过程

Discussion on the Development of the Image Simplification of Lyu Bu

吕布以三国第一武将出现并成为一个有勇无谋且不忠不义的形象,经历了复杂的历史演变过程。通过对《三国志》《后汉书》《资治通鉴》等史书的阅读发现,早期对于吕布的描述较为丰富,并不局限于"有勇无谋"这样简化的形象,而直到《三国演义》中,吕布这种单一化的形象才最终被确立,并形成了后世对吕布形象的基本看法。原先不善武勇的吕布成为后世作品中武勇和不义的代名词,这其中既有复杂的历史成因,也跟《三国演义》具体的创作思路有关。

The image of Lyu Bu, originally showing up in the first general then as a brave person without wisdom and loyalty, experienced the historical developments. Through reading such books as Three Kingdoms, History of the Later Han Dynasty and A General Reflection for Political Administration, it shows that the early description of Lyu Bu was diversified, and he was not only confined to a brave but disloyal person. Not until the accomplishments of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms was his simplified image utterly established, and then the basic idea of Lyu Bu＇s image gradually came into being. Lyu Bu, who was originally not good at fighting, stands for the bravery and disloyalty in the later works, which has complex historical reasons and is connected with the specific creation purpose of the Romance of the Three Kingdom.
