中国四大民间传说-Butterfly Lovers 梁山伯与祝英台

中国四大民间传说-Butterfly Lovers 梁山伯与祝英台


Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai is one of the four  Chinese folk legends and one of the most influential types of verbal  art. Having been spread far and wide in China for over 1600 years, it  was awarded the fame of "A faithful-love masterpiece through the ages"  and the title of  "Oriental Romeo and Juliet".Appearing in the Jin Dynasty 1600 years ago, the Legend of Liang Zhu  goes like this: To pursuit her studies in Hangzhou, Zhu Yingtai  disguised herself as a man. After studying for three years together with  her schoolfellow Liang Shanbo, Zhu Yingtai fell in love with the  intellectual. Before the farewell, Zhu Yingtai dropped hints again and  again to Liang Shanbo who failed to understand it at that time. Later,  after being clear about Zhu Yingtai's intentions, he headed for the Zhu  family to propose marriage. Unfortunately, Zhu Yingtai had been  betrothed by her father to another man. Liang Shanbo was so grieved that  he finally suffered decease and passed away. Zhu Yingtai headed for  Liang Shanbo's tomb to offer sacrifice to him on the day when she got  married. At the time she held the memorial ceremony, it winded and  rained, with thunder flashing in the sky. After a while, the tomb blew  out and Zhu Yingtai sprang into it. Later on, the lovers turned into a  pair of colored butterflies and flied wing to wing in rainbowed sky.
With touching plot and magnificent imagination, Legend  of Liang Zhu is very popular with common people. A gigantic system of  Liang Zhu culture has come into existence. It is comprised of various  literary and artistic works including the Yue Opera Liang Shanbo and Zhu  Yingtai, violin concerto Liang Zhu and the film Liang Shanbo and Zhu  Yingtai, and also, the peculiar fashion of pursuing studies as well as  love and marriage. When going round, the legend has been continuously  enriched and developed by people in various regions. At the same time,  numerous gravestones, temples and other buildings were built, with  Legend of Liang Zhu as the theme. Furthermore, this legend has been  spread to many countries such as North Korea, Viet Nam, Burma, Japan,  Singapore and Indonesia with unequalled influence.
