Summary "白兔記" by I Ming is a historical play, likely written in the late 19th century. The narrative revolves primarily around the character Liu Zhi Yuan, who faces a series of hardships and misfortunes, including familial conflicts and societal challenges, while aspiring for a brighter future and seeking to establish his place in the world. At the start of the play, we are introduced to Liu Zhi Yuan, who experiences turmoil as he grapples with his past and misfortunes in the harsh cold winter. He reflects on his family struggles, having been expelled by his stepfather and forced into a life of hardship. During this opening segment, Liu encounters his friends and family members who embody various societal archetypes, establishing a vivid portrayal of a struggling man within a larger narrative of social dynamics, kinship, and personal ambitions. The interactions are infused with traditional performance elements and poetic language, setting a tone that intertwines sorrow, determination, and hope for future redemption.
