What are the works that show historical themes in drama creation?
In drama creation, historical themes are also valued by writers. Because the feudal ethics was criticized at that time, the story about marriage and the oppressed and degraded female images in history became the main contents of historical dramas. The story of a peacock flying southeast alone has been written into several historical dramas, and even the legend of Liang Zhu has been made into a drama. At this time, Guo Moruo was the most successful in the creation of historical dramas. He wrote Zhuo Wenjun and Wang Zhaojun in 1923. 1925 After the May 30th Movement, Nie Ying was written again. Later, he combined these three plays into a book, Three Rebellious Women, and published it. Guo Moruo explores history from reality. Both Zhuo Wenjun and Wang Zhaojun wrote "articles on conviction". Zhuo Wenjun, who was recently widowed, eloped to Sima Xiangru, which was considered immoral in the past, because she violated the old adage of "single-mindedness". Guo Moruo, on the other hand, wrote Zhuo Wenjun as a woman who pursued individuality liberation and dared to betray feudal ethics, and she struggled for "human qualification". At the same time, he created several male images, such as stubborn Zhuo Wangsun, hypocritical and shameless Cheng Zheng, servile Zhou Da and crumbling Qin Er, all of which showed meanness and insignificance in front of Zhuo Wenjun.
