Description
The Water Margin"" takes the peasant uprising led by Songjiang as the main subjects, and artistically reappears the tragic pictures of the ancient Chinese peoples resistance to oppression, and the brave fights. The works fully exposes the corrupt and brutal feudal ruling class , reveales the sharp contrary social contradictions and the cruel reality of ""the oppressive government driving people to rebellion"" , and successfully models a batch of heroic figures such as Lu Zhishen, Likui, Wusong, Linchong, Ruan Xiaoqi, etc. The novel plot twists and turns, has the dramatic language, bright personal characters, with high artistic achievements. But the work eulogizes and beautifies Songjiang, advocating the ""loyalty"" and ""manifest destiny"", which shows the serious thought limitation.
