吴梅村书写的“甲申之变”期间的社会状况及其批判

The Social Condition and its Critique by Wu Meicun in the Period of “The Change of Jiashen”

公元1644年的"甲申之变",诚为天崩地裂之年代,明王朝为李自成所倾覆,崇祯殉国,不久清兵入关,中原易鼎。吴梅村在"甲申之变"期间所书写的关于他自身避乱、皇室悲剧,并对不忠将领以至于由清政权所造成的社会各阶层的艰难困厄做出批判。吴梅村之诗书写细腻真确,在"正史"之外,为我们提供了明清易鼎之际社会各阶层状况的另一幅图像。

"The Change of Jiashen"in 1644 led to the social upheavals. Ming Dynasty was overthrown by Li Zicheng and the emperor Chongzhen committed suicide. Shortly after then the power was controlled by Manchu and Qing Dynasty was found.Wu Meicun recorded his personal experience of running away from war and the tragedy of the royal family,and criticized the hard life in the whole society caused by unfaithful generals and even Qing political power. Wu Meicun's historical poetry was detailed and true. Besides "official history",it can provide another picture about the state of all classes in the society at that time.
