Dream as "Being": Du Liniang and her field of "being"
-
This is a past event
A talk based on the play 'The Peony Pavilion' (1598)
Tang Xianzu (1550-1616) wrote The Peony Pavilion (1598) during the twenty-six years of the Wanli period in China’s Ming dynasty (1368-1644). The fantastic tale of heroine Du Liniang expresses the true living conditions of women in the late Ming dynasty. Tang Zianzu's The Peony Pavilion provides a magical and divine way for those love-longing women, hopelessly confined in their quarters, to release their love and desires.
