国庆假期带小朋友看了易中天编剧、监制的《三国的星空》，应该是这个系列的第一部，主要讲曹操与 袁绍，以官渡之战收尾。影片结尾的彩蛋显示，下一部应该是讲"赤壁"。 电视时代，易中天的"品三国"听众和读者不少，提出了一些在史学界可能不算新颖，但在不太了解三国 史的人而言比较新奇的观点。《三国的星空》也有一些体现。 国漫近些年越做越好，志怪传说做些改动，往往无伤大雅。但历史国漫，需要谨慎。历史国漫，拍成电 影的不多，成功的更少。《长安三万里》口碑很好，画面好、声乐好，最重要的是，剧本好。 历史国漫，要么尊重历史，要么干脆不要历史，就去架空。日本有搞架空历史剧的传统，以三国为题材 的电视剧、动漫多如牛毛，甚至魔改到全员女性（《一骑当千》）。中国大陆观众可能把日漫当消遣， 但如果本土拍出来的历史动漫经不起推敲，就一定会不买账。 《三国的星空》就遇到了这样的问题。 该剧令观众最意外之处，在于汉献帝刘协与曹操的关系看起来过于密切。而这种过于密切则源于该 剧"演义"了衣带诏事件，即汉献帝向曹操承认曾向董承下衣带诏，但献帝自述下诏诛曹的前提是曹操有 谋逆企图，只是董承故意把这个前提"裁剪掉"，变成了不加条件的"奉衣带诏讨贼"，因 ...

Core Viewpoint - The emergence of the "weak scholar" reflects a significant manifestation of the "emasculation" of masculinity in pre-modern Chinese literature and society, indicating a complex relationship between gender roles and societal expectations [4][6][9]. Group 1: Representation of Gender in Literature - The portrayal of women in classic Chinese literature often reflects a misogynistic attitude, where female beauty is seen as a corrupting influence on male virtues such as restraint and bravery [1][9]. - Works like "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Water Margin" contain explicit misogynistic themes, with female characters often depicted as catalysts for male conflict and downfall [1][9]. - The "weak scholar" archetype, as analyzed in "The Weak Scholar: Masculinity in Pre-Modern China," suggests that despite the appearance of gender equality in narratives like "The West Chamber," misogyny remains prevalent [4][9].

Group 3: Historical Context - The historical backdrop of the Song and Yuan dynasties contributed to the emergence of the "weak scholar" archetype, as societal shifts and the establishment of the civil service examination system elevated the status of literati [7][10]. - The Mongol rule during the Yuan dynasty created a unique context for the development of male identity, leading to a distinct construction of masculinity that diverged from previous dynasties [7][10]. - The analysis of "The West Chamber" reveals that the interplay of gender roles and societal expectations is deeply rooted in the historical experiences of humiliation and loss faced by the literati [7][10].
