The Rainny Night by the Autumn Lamp and The People's Livelihood in the Late Qing Dynasty

作为时代的一面镜子,《夜雨秋灯录》立体化地展现了中国晚清社会的民生百态:反映民族压迫和阶级压迫的黑暗现实,同情下层人民遭受的种种苦难;揭示世风的污浊和道德的沦丧,颂扬善行美德和良知侠举;揭露封建礼教对广大女性的残酷桎梏,发掘女性身上的人性美、道德美,赞颂她们的义、侠、智、勇;披露当时社会上各种旧俗陋习,揭示邪教的虚伪本质,讽刺"时文"和官场的阿谀奉承。

As a mirror of the times, The Rainny Night by the Autumn Lamp three--dimensionally shows the livelihood of the Chinese society in the late Qing Dynasty： the dark reality that reflects national oppression and class oppression, sympathy for the suffering of the lower classes, and the filthiness of the world＇s people, Moral deterioration, praise of good virtues and consciences; exposing the cruelty of feudal rituals to women, discovering the beauty of humanity and moral beauty in women, and praising their righteousness, chivalry, wisdom, and courage; revealing various old customs in society at the time. The bad habits reveal the false nature of cults, satirize the ＂Eight shares＂ and the flattery of officialdom.
