《三国演义》是中国文学史上第一部章回小说,是历史演义小说的开山之作,也是第一部文人长篇小说,明清时期甚至有“第一才子书”之称。《三国演义》可大致分为黄巾起义、董卓之乱、群雄逐鹿、三国鼎立、三国归晋五大部分,描写了从东汉末年到西晋初年之间近百年的历史风云,以描写战争为主,诉说了东汉末年的群雄割据混战和魏、蜀、吴三国之间的政治和军事斗争,最终司马炎一统三国,建立晋朝的故事。反映了三国时代各类社会斗争与矛盾的转化,并概括了这一时代的历史巨变,塑造了一群叱咤风云的三国英雄人物。
First of the five great works of traditional prose fiction, this master narrative transforms history into epic and has thereby educated and entertained readers of five centuries with unforgettable exemplars of martial and civic virtue, of personal fidelity and political treachery. “The empire, long divided, must unite; long united, must divide. Thus it has ever been.” Echoing the rhythms of Chinese history itself, the monumental tale Three Kingdoms begins. As important for Chinese culture as the Homeric epics have been for the West, this fourteenth century masterpiece continues to be loved and read throughout China today. Three Kingdoms portrays a fateful moment at the end of the Han Dynasty (206 B.C.-A.D. 220) when the future of the Chinese empire lay in the balance.
