The Story of the Stone #1: The Golden Days《枉入红尘》
Cao Xueqin(曹雪芹),Translated by David Hawkes(大卫•霍克斯)and John Minford(约翰•闵福德)„Dream of the Red Chamber“ (紅樓夢Honglou Meng) or „The Story of the Stone“ (石頭記Shitou Ji) is a novel composed by Cáo Xuěqín (曹雪芹) in the middle of the 18th century. One of the Four Great Classical Novels of Chinese literature, it is known for its psychological scope, and its observation of the worldview, aesthetics, life-styles, and social relations of 18th-century China.
Cao apparently began composing it in the 1740s and worked on it until his death in 1763 or 1764. Copies of his uncompleted manuscript circulated in Cao's social circle, under the title „Story of a Stone“ in slightly varying versions of eighty chapters. It was not published until nearly three decades after Cao's death, when Gao E and Cheng Weiyuan (程偉元), edited the first and second printed editions under the title „Dream of the Red Chamber“ in 1791–92, adding 40 chapters. It is still debated whether Gao and Cheng composed these chapters themselves and the extent to which they did or did not represent Cao's intentions. Their 120 chapter edition became the most widely circulated version. The title has also been translated as „Red Chamber Dream“ and „A Dream of Red Mansions“. – "Redology" is the field of study devoted to the novel.
