《红楼梦》共有王太医、张友士、王济仁、王大夫、胡君荣、毕知庵、王一贴、跛足道人、癞头和尚等九位主要的医者形象,相对于以往叙事文学作品中的同类形象,他们突破性的文学价值主要体现在两个方面:一是,这些医者形象诊病开方的言行作用大大突破了一般医疗范畴,往往使“病”的内涵与整个《红楼梦》哭世之意相合,自身的角色价值主要体现在医疗之外,身份属性在一定程度上被虚化;二是,这些医者形象各种医疗行为的本身具有极深的隐喻作用,其姓氏、言语、动作及所开药方、药名等均能形成隐喻,这是表现人物属性和小说主题意蕴不可或缺的要素。 A total of nine major doctors such as Wang Taiyi, Zhang Youshi, Wang Jiren, Wang Dafu, Hu Junrong, Bi Zhimin, Wang Yi Tie, lame Taoist and Yuantou monk share the same image as the similar images in past narrative literary works The value of sexual literature is mainly reflected in two aspects: First, the function of these doctors in prescribing medical consultation greatly breaks through the general medical category and tends to make the connotation of “sickness” coincide with the meaning of “crying world” in the “Dream of the Red Chamber” , Their own role value is mainly reflected in the medical treatment, the identity attribute is to some extent, the virtual property; Second, these medical images of various medical behavior itself has a profound metaphor, its surname, speech, action and opened Prescription, medicine name, etc. can form a metaphor, which is an essential element to express the character of the character and the theme of the novel.
