Kwiintsuku nje ezimbalwa, ekugqibeleni siya kuba nakho ukonwabela ingxelo entsha, esebenzayo Mulan emva kweenyanga zokulibaziseka. Le nguqulo ayisiyiyo ifilimu yoopopayi ye-1998 uninzi lwethu oluqheleneyo-endaweni yoko, lutsala ngakumbi kwimbali yaseTshayina yoqobo. UMulan ngumntu othandekayo ngokumangalisayo kwinkcubeko yaseTshayina kunye neentsomi, kodwa ngubani u-Hua Mulan wokuqala? Kwaye ngaba wayesekelwe kumntu owayephila ngokwenene?
I-Mulan luphawu lwentsomi e-China. Owona mfanekiso mhle endinokuza nawo kuthi abaphulaphuli baseNtshona nguKing Arthur. Ungumntu onebali eliphinda litolikwe ngokuphindaphindiweyo, kunye nezinto ezimbalwa ezishiyekileyo, kwaye ungaphezulu ngokusebenza njengembonakalo yeenjongo ezithile zenkcubeko kunokuba ubalise isiganeko sokwenyani. Kodwa oko akuthethi ukuba kwakungekho mntu wokwenene emva kwentsomi.
Owona mthombo uphambili welivo likaMulan eTshayina IBallad yeHua Mulan , Umbongo ongaziwayo ophela ngexesha elithile ngenkulungwane yesihlanu okanye yesithandathu . Abanye bathi i-ballad yayinguye Ukuqanjwa ngexesha lobukhosi beWei xa isimo sengqondo ngokubhekisele kwindawo yabasetyhini kuluntu lwaseTshayina sasinenkululeko engakumbi, impembelelo yeConfuscianism, kodwa ayibhalwanga phantsi de kwalandela ubukhosi beTang.
Eyokuqala IBallad yeHua Mulan imfutshane kwaye yayiyeyona ngoma. Ivela kwingqokelela enkulu ebizwa ngokuba yi Ukuqokelelwa kweQonga loMculo. Isixelela ngentombi yakhe uMulan, oxinezelekileyo ukuba utata wakhe omkhulu ubizelwe emfazweni, kwaye uthathe indawo yakhe enxibe njengendoda. Kodwa ngokungafaniyo nohlobo lweDisney, akafumaneki efihlile, endaweni yoko ukhonza emkhosini iminyaka elishumi elinambini ngempumelelo nakwizixhobo. Ekupheleni kwenkonzo yakhe, unikwa isikhundla esiphakamileyo kodwa ucela nje ukugoduka, kwaye xa esenza oko utyhila ukuba ungumfazi. I-ballad iphela ngengcinga yokuba umntu akakwazi ukwahlula imivundla eyindoda nebhinqileyo xa zibaleka.
Ukusukela ngoko, u-Mulan uye waba ngumntu obaluleke ngokungathethekiyo hayi njengowasetyhini oqinileyo, kodwa okona kubaluleke kakhulu e-China, njengoyena mntu ubalaseleyo Inkxaso yenkxaso -Ingcinga yaseTshayina yokuzinikela, ukuhlonipha, nokuzincama kusapho nakubadala. Yenye, ukuba akunjalo i eyona nto ibaluleke kakhulu kwinkcubeko yamaTshayina, ewe. I-Mulan yinto enkulu. Igama lakhe lide liqulathe iChina uqobo: I-Hua ethetha intyatyambo kunye neMulan eguqula njengemagnolia, kwaye intyatyambo yemagnolia iluphawu lwase China. (Leyo yiMandarin; inguqulelo yesiCanton yiFa Mulan yona isetyenziswe kwifilimu yeDisney ka-1998.)
UMulan ukusukela oko waba ngumntu omkhulu kwinkcubeko yamaTshayina kuyo yonke iminyaka, kwakhona njengoKing Arthur entshona. (Inikezwe ukuba imvelaphi yayo inokuba yayijikeleze ixesha elifanayo Umntu wokwenene uArthur kodwa yayifana neYurophu kwiXesha eliMnyama, amaTshayina ayenezinto ezingcono kunye kwaye enerekhodi ezingakumbi zembali yawo. Kwaye njengoKing Arthur, ibali lakhe liye lahlengahlengiswa kwaye lakhiwa ngamagcisa awohlukeneyo kangangeenkulungwane.
Inkqubo ye- IBallad yeHua Mulan ifumene ukuthandwa xa iphinde yaveliswa kwi Ukuqokelelwa kweQonga loMculo Ngu-Guo Maoqian ngenkulungwane ye-11 okanye ye-12 . Ibali lakhe laxelwa kumdlalo we-1593 ngu-Xu Wei , I-Mulan yabasetyhini okanye IHeroine Mulan iya emfazweni kwindawo yoYise. Le nguqulo yongeze abalinganiswa abaninzi kunye nomdlalo weqonga kwaye yabonisa uMulan owayesele eyindoda enamandla. Ukwabonakaliswa kwi Ukuthandana kweSui kunye neTang.
UMulan ukusukela ngoko waba lithemba kunye nenkuthazo kwinkcubeko yamaTshayina, eneenguqulelo ezininzi kakhulu ukuba angazibala. Kodwa ngaba wayenayo nayiphi na indlela yokwenene?
Ewe, asinokwazi. Kwakukho Imfazwe yokwenene phakathi kwelizwe laseMntla Wei kunye nelizwe laseMongolia / Mongolo elibizwa ngokuba yiRouran . Inkulungwane yesi-5 e-China yayilixesha lotshintsho ngoko ke ngekhe kwabakho abafazi abanxiba njengamadoda ukuba balwe. Kwakhona, ndiza kuba nolwazi lokuba ulwazi olukhoyo malunga ne-Mulan ngesiNgesi lilinganiselwe xa kuthelekiswa nento ekhoyo e-China. Kwakhona, ukunika umxholo apha, i Amagorha eTerracotta oMlawuli weQin zadalwa malunga ne-230 BC, ekwakukho kuyo xa ulwakhiwo lokuqala kuLudonga Olukhulu luxinekile, kodwa iinxalenye zalo zazisele zikho ukusukela nge-700 BCE. Iinxalenye zoDonga oluKhulu esazi ezona zilungileyo namhlanje, nangona kunjalo, zazingakhange zakhiwe de ubukhosi be-Ming, buqale malunga ne-14th century. Ke loo nto ibeka uMulan ngokuqinileyo embindini wembali ende.
Ngelixa kungekho bungqina bembali bokuba ngumfazi wokwenyani emva kwentsomi kaMulan, kunokwenzeka ukuba wayenyani, asazi nje. Into esiyaziyo ukuba yayingenguye yedwa oligorha labasetyhini kwimbali yamaTshayina.
Kwakukho UQin Liangyu , umfazi owafunda ubugcisa bemfazwe esemncinci, emva koko watshata umphathi-mkhosi ogama linguMa Qiancheng. Wayekhonza ecaleni kwakhe kwaye wakhokela imikhosi ukuqala ngo-1599, kwaye ngo-1613 xa kwasweleka umyeni wakhe, wathatha isikhundla sakhe kwaye waba kuphela komfazi kwimbali yamaTshayina ukubamba isikhundla ngokubanzi. Wafa eneminyaka engama-74 emva kokulimala emfazweni. Ngama-74 !!
Kwakukho nabanye abafazi ababephatha umkhosi okanye njengabavukeli. Kwaye ke kukho uChing Shih, ipirate yebhinqa eyaziwayo . Waba ngumthetheli weenqanawa ezili-1,800 kunye nama-70- 80,000 abaphangi! Wayemangalisa! Kwakunjalo ke noTang Sai Er, owayekhokela imvukelo yabalimi ngexesha leMing Dynasty kwaye waseka ihlelo elibizwa ngokuba yiWhite Lotus.
Zimbalwa ezo abafazi bokwenene ezathatha izixhobo kwimbali yamaTshayina. Kwaye bayenzile njengabafazi kwaye ngenxa yezizathu zabo. Kodwa u-Mulan uhlala eyintsomi enamandla kwaye ebonakala kungekuphela ngenxa yokuba walwa kodwa ngenxa yokuba wayenzela usapho.
Ke nokuba asazi ukuba ngubani uMulan wokwenyani onokuba ebenguye, uyinxalenye yesiko elide kwaye likhulu lamagorha ababhinqileyo. Inguqulelo entsha ye Mulan ukudibanisa ilivo eliyintsusa, iisimboli zeMulan, kunye nokubaluleka kwayo kwinkcubeko yamaTshayina? Ndonwabile ukufumanisa. Kukho umhlaba ochumileyo omninzi kwimbali yentsusa nakuleyo ilandelayo, kwaye nangaphandle kweengoma ezibambekayo, ndiyathemba ukuba le nguqulo izakuzisa imbeko kwilivo.
