Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of South Carolina, 1996.

The present dissertation studies the influence of Buddhism and Taoism in The Dream of the Red Chamber. The interplay of both schools in the novel is revealed in three aspects: the structure, the hero's character, and his developmental process. In discussing the last aspect, I compare Baoyu's inner journey with that of Sinclair's in Hermann Hesse's novel, Demian. The comparison unfolds from Joseph Campbell's formula of a hero's journey--departure, initiation, and return.

520 $a The present dissertation studies the influence of Buddhism and Taoism in The Dream of the Red Chamber. The interplay of both schools in the novel is revealed in three aspects: the structure, the hero's character, and his developmental process. In discussing the last aspect, I compare Baoyu's inner journey with that of Sinclair's in Hermann Hesse's novel, Demian. The comparison unfolds from Joseph Campbell's formula of a hero's journey--departure, initiation, and return.
520 $a The first chapter gives an introduction of Buddhism and Taoism. It stresses the role of nothingness/non-being in the origin of being in both philosophies. The Buddhist view of the life process--Birth, Stasis, Mutation, Extinction--governs the structure of the novel, which presents the rise, prosperity, change, and fall of the Jia family (Chapter 2). The Taoist "negative" approach to life for a positive result is discovered in the molding of the hero's character. His non-practical attitude proves to be of great value as far as his final enlightenment is concerned (Chapter 3).
520 $a The final chapter traces Baoyu's inner journey. It is enlightenment through the experience of love in four stages: from Void to Form; Passion engendered from and reverted to Form; and from Form back to the Void. This process is equivalent to the Buddhist theory of "Twelve Conditioned Geneses." And this pattern of departure-initiation-return is compatable to Sinclair's in Demian. Baoyu starts from a stone in the "Great Void, Land of Illusion," takes on human form to experience the vanity of human passion, and returns to the Void again by entering the Gate of Emptiness. As for Sinclair, he departs from his dependent childhood, confronts the dark side of his unconscious, and finally comes to terms with himself by returning to the collective unconscious--his "Demian." By responding to the call to self-realization, both heroes become themselves.
