水浒传英文介绍ppt

When reading Shuihu, one of the four most famous masterpieces in Chinese literature, we can always find such a scene: a guy cried: Oh, Jesus! You are Brother Song Gongming! Please accept my salutation… We can find hundreds of examples like that in this book, among those guys, you can find bandits, thieves, gangsters, policemen, solders, officers, and even some high-ranking generals. That’s really interesting, isn’t it? So I began to do some researches in this field. Unfortunately, it really made me headache, I couldn’t find a satisfactory explanation after seven days of researching. Just before the second that I wanted to quit, suddenly, a light hit me right there, I cried: Oui! J’ai compris! Bravo ! Gracias a Dios !（请注意，作者脑子有毛病，所以不时嘴里会崩出些法语、西班牙语、拉丁语什么的，其实他自己也不知道是什么意思） The reason lies in the hierarchies of Chinese mafia society ! Although Song Jiang, a staff in a county government, and Chao Gai, a small landlord, are not in the high hierarchy of the society, they are indeed in the top hierarchy of the mafia society. That explains well why people all over China know them and respect them so much. Actually, in Chinese history, many military officers are also members of mafia society. For example, President Jiang Jieshi, had to salute Du Yuesheng, one of the leaders of Chinese mafia society in the year 1930s, despite the fact that he himself had already got control of the whole country. Some might ask: how can you be so sure that all those people are members of mafia society? Actually, if we read the book really carefully, we can find so many evidences. For instance, Zhang The Arrow without Feather Qing, a general, always throws small pieces of stone when fighting. It’s a proof that he had been a gangster who liked to fight by throwing bricks (a popular weapon for gangsters) for a long time before he joined the army. Dai The Fleet-footed Runner Zong, a prison guard, can run as fast as Lewis. Obviously, it’s because that he was always chasing by the other gangsters, needs bring about ability, n’est-ce pas （又开始来毛病了）? Huyan The Two Whips Zhuo, a general, uses two iron whips as his weapons. If one has some knowledge about Cantonese mafia, he will immediately relate his weapons with water pipe, a very popular weapon for Cantonese gangsters. Guan The Giant Sword Sheng, is not necessarily more powerful than Lin The Panther Head Chong and Hua The Li Guang Junior Rong, but he ranks higher than them. Maybe it’s because his ancestor, Guan Yu, is the God that all Chinese mafia members must admire. Sun The Sick Yuchi Li, is a very good fighter, and he is also the chief police officer of a medium city, which means he is also ranking very high in the society. It seems that it’s quite safe to say that he will be on a very high position in the Liang Mountain Ranking. However, it’s not the truth. Why? It might be the reason that he hasn’t been in the mafia society for a long time. Yan The Prodigal Qing, was only a servant and had not even a little contribution to the Liang Mountain before joining the Liang Mountain Army, but he is on a quite high position in the Liang Mountain Ranking. What’s the reason? Maybe it’s because that he had joined the mafia society since he was still a boy, and had already been on the high hierarchy of mafia society before joining the Liang Mountain Army. Certainly, different people have different point of view about that, but I tend to think that my explanation is one of the most rational and reasonable. Of course, different arguments are always welcome.

In the final years of the Song dynasty china was in a state of political and social turmoil. Besides frequent foreign invasion and a large number of man made and natural disasters there were also constant pheasant rebellion. In order to transform society and make it more equitable and human 108 heroes joined together in Shan-dong province Liang Shan to oppose the local officials and genitures. Thus began the corsages and moving drama on which the novel water margin is based.
