Title:: Direct Influence of The Carnal Prayer Mat on A Dream of Red Mansions

Keywords:: The Carnal Prayer Mat; A Dream of Red Mansions; stone; beauty roster; influence on creation

摘要:: 《红楼梦》与《肉蒲团》之书名与题旨实出一辙,总体构思如一,都有“一僧一道”; 未央生是“皮肤滥淫”的贾宝玉,贾宝玉是“意淫”的未央生; 《肉蒲团》“花册”是《红楼梦》写“金陵十二钗”册子的蓝本; 两书有共同的小说理论甚至习惯用语。曹雪芹应该读过《肉蒲团》,《红楼梦》受《肉蒲团》“直接的影响”多而显。这既是《肉蒲团》对后世影响的一个亮点,也是已经难得有新发现的“红学”的一个新发现。

Abstract:: Cao Xueqin’s A Dream of Red Mansions is parallel to Li Yu’s The Carnal Prayer Mat in title, theme as well as the general narrative structure, both of them having the similar characters of “a monk and a Taoist priest”. The protagonist Jia Baoyu in A Dream of Red Mansions is the analogue of Weiyang Sheng in The Carnal Prayer Mat; the beauty roster in the former can also find its counterpart in the latter. In addition, it is not difficult to see these two novels have a lot in common in both diction and the theory of novel writing. The author of A Dream of Red Mansions must have studied The Carnal Prayer Mat. It is quite clear that the former is under the direct influence of the latter. This finding will add to the seemingly exhaustive studies of redology some new facts.
