Abstract

The economic foundation determines the superstructure, and culture is the concentrated embodiment of economy and politics in a certain period of time. A specific historical period can often determine the fate of characters, and the tragedy produced under the powerlessness of the era can always make people pity and have compassion for it. Using the method of literature research, this dissertation will take the three protagonists in the film and Peking Opera, which is closely related to them, as the starting points to analyze how does the tragedies of both nobody and traditional Chinese culture come from in the great changing and turbulent era and what enlightenment does their tragedies have on modern people and society. The problem this article hopes to solve is how to correctly understand and inherit the Chinese traditional culture represented by Peking Opera, and how people should live with dignity and guard what values in the turbulent era.
