• 万里赴戎机,关山度若飞。朔气传金柝,寒光照铁衣。将军百战死,壮士十年归。 • 归来见天子,天子坐明堂。策勋十二转,赏赐百千强。可汗问所欲,木兰不用尚书郎;
愿驰千里足,送儿还故乡。 • 爷娘闻女来,出郭相扶将;阿姊闻妹来,当户理红妆;小弟闻姊来,磨刀霍霍向猪羊。
开我东阁门,坐我西阁床,脱我战时袍,著我旧时裳(cháng),当窗理云鬓,对镜帖花 黄。出门看火伴,火伴皆惊忙:同行十二年,不知木兰是女郎。 • 雄兔脚扑朔,雌兔眼迷离;双兔傍地走,安能辨我是雄雌?

花木兰电影解析-英文————————————————————————————————作者:————————————————————————————————日期:2Instructor’s NameOctober 17, 19The Adaption of ChineseTraditional Legend MuLanGEOLOGY 101 REPORT 3AbstractMuLan is a legend story from ancient China back to Bei Dynasty. The originalstory is telling a girl called Mu Lan, she disguised herself as a man to join the army onbehalf of her sick and old father. As the legend is influential in history, there are lots of adaptions came to the market, and the most influential one is the classic movie from Walt Disney.This assay will be focus about the points of view which different from originallegend and the movie. By the character Mu Lan, the adaption version changed theChinese traditional woman future into a girl who is more western and vivid and she hasmore friends in movie than legend ; The movie also added the element of love with LiXiang; Also, the description of war in detail has been added than original. The theme ofthe movie portrayed a girl who is self-fulfillment, chasing for freedom and love which the original legend did not tell this part. That is the reason Walt Disney’s culture background entitled this change.There are 3 parts of my essay :The exploration of the original legend and theadaption movie, what are the changed parts ; The analysis of why these adaptionhappened; My understanding of the adaption, which version I prefer and why.Part I The Chinese Legend Mu Lan & The Walt Disney Mu LanGEOLOGY 101 REPORT 4The original legend story was wrote in ancient China. To say the background ofthat time, during the war, every family in her country need to contribute a male person tojoin the army. In Mu Lan’s family, there is only a man there, her father who is really sickand old. So the story starts :“jiji (the sound of loom), there is no sound of the loom butonly heavily sigh from Mu Lan. Ask she what is she thinking, she said yesterday I sawthe military conscription. There is no brothers in my family ,I have only a old father. I am willing to go instead of my father. Mu Lan bought all the things need and farewell to her parents, join the war until few years later, the military won the war, the king asked shewhat do HE want after the war, Mu Lan said she doesn't want any trasure, she want ahorse and get back home. So she get back home as a girl eventually, which surprise allher friends because no one knows she is a girl.” This is a short and complete story of MuLan in original.The movie adapted lots of part as well as kept some parts of original. Here I will pointout two parts in difference .First Adaption :The outline of Mu Lan. In the original legend, there are only 2part of word described what Mu Lan looks like: at the beginning of the legend, “she sighed.” and she back home she took of she clothing and change it back to femaledresses with flowers on her head.. You can tell Mu Lan is a traditional Chinese girl, weakand pretty— a sigh, isn't she soft and need protection? In the movie, Mu Lan talk loudly,laugh loudly. She is not a weak and soft girl in the movie. The movie starts the samepoint as the original, the motivation is the same : she joint the army on behalf of herfather. But she is not a girl who suits her original living environment. She does notwant to stay in her little valley for the rest of her life, she want to be some one who have GEOLOGY 101 REPORT 5her own life in hand. she also had a boyfriend which she loved instead of by arrangement. There is no love relationship mentioned in original legend; Third part is about the war description : in the legend, Mu Lan heard when she was in the war-she about the peopleare killing each other, she can not hear anything from her home, she is away from home.She was very brave because she was missing her home and she also behaved very good tobe promoted as a big general and she is thanked by the king by her outstandingperformance in the army; In the adaption version of movie, Mu Lan was encouraged byher boyfriend and she is a solider instead of a general by the war end. No king gave herany word by her outstanding behavior during the war. In all , Mu Lan is a soft and weakin heart girl in the original legend:She may not have her willing to control her destinysuch as a love relationship but she works hard for gaining reputation and hoping to do something good for her parents. The Mu Lan in the movie is cute and alive, she is willingto control her life and she adores love and hope to be loved. She follows her heart insteadof been obedience to her parents for the rest of her life.Second Adaption: The Core Storyline. The original legend is telling a story that a daughter tried to join the army on behalf of her father. The motivation of Mu Lan is to bea dutiful daughter to her father and nothing else matters.“If it not because of her father,Mu Lan herself doesn't have any motivation of join the army, in spite of try to be equalwith men”. She is doing housework home and satisfy her life; During the time she was in army, she is always missing her parents; so all these can be said Mu Lan is a dutiful girland she is not willing to take big challenge for fitful her own willings. That is why afterthe war, she doesn't want anything from the king, high titles , career, money, she justwants go home and doing her obligation. The movie is somehow different of why Mu GEOLOGY 101 REPORT 6Lan goes to army. Mu Lan was arranged by their parents to see someone and prepare fora arranged marriage which she doesn't like it at all. So her motivation is more aboutherself. She is girl full of self-fulfillment, so when the woman matchmaker complainedabout Mu Lan is not a bride who can honor her family, Mu Lan tried to look insideherself and find the value in her heart. Once there is a chance for her (her father need tojoin army by the call of duty) So the real motivation for Mu Lan, original is for herfamily duty, the adaption is for herself. When it comes to the war, Mu Lan was found sheis a girl, she said she want to prove herself. Mu Lan here in adaption version is a girl with American Dream.Part II The analysis of the adaptionAssume that the background changed, if Mu Lan’s father is not requested to jointhe army, the adapted Mu Lan may also try to find other opportunities to prove herself.Help her father to join the army is just one of those opportunities: she used her dog tofeed her chicken, write the “should be” on her arm when she arranged to see the matchmaker,she is not traditional Mu Lan. Disney used this feature to describe Mu Lan tocater to mainstream of US value : Individualism.This value is the opposite ofcollectivism.Individualism deem the person in society is independent. So everyone havetheir independent ideas, rights and freedom. So the personal value is the most importantpart than obligations.GEOLOGY 101 REPORT 7From the legend , the man priority is the mainstream value in traditional China butmovie changed it.In the legend, Mu Lan is using the loom at home we can tell she is kindof girl who will not stand out her family and change the tradition. But the adaptionversion of Mu Lan , she is not obey what other people told her should to, she should bequiet when she was in the bride test, she said loudly “I am here.” When her father wassent to army, her traditional female mother said nothing at the house gate but crying. MuLan rushed out and drag her father’s hand and did not allow her to go.The reason caused these adaption is because the culture difference betweenChinese and American. The value difference is the core. In China, the value ofcollectivism is the most important part in society, in long run of history, the agriculture isthe economic base, so the collectivism could help people survive in the society, the unit is family. The family organization influent most the Chinese family, so do the duties to the parents is the most important part. The right of succession is by family blood, male to female, older to young, so this succession tradition influenced women’s position and thelimit of people will be influenced by their economic position.To be different, the American was influenced by individualism. The American Dreamsaying that no matter your background, who you are, if you have a dream you shouldreach and grab it by yourself. This value is developed by Renaissance world view, the Declaration of Independence also mentioned that people are born fair, the rights are all equals to people. American people raise up their children by a individual person andrespect their personality; their child who is over 18 years old should try to raise up themselves instead of living together; when you become adult , you don't have to shareGEOLOGY 101 REPORT 8your money your parents. The original Mu Lan is try to praise Chinese traditions so dothe adaption version, that is why the difference come.Part III My UnderstandingA tradition story and a movie are two symbols. Legend is using the words, so theaudience will use their imagination to image their own version of hamlet. For Mu Lan, itis a short story, i.e. there are only 30 words to describe the detail of the war, but themovie put two more characters and used more than 10 mins to draw how a brave girl MuLan is. That is to say, movie has to be adapted.Personally I love more the adaption movie. I have to the the way with visual and realwords will attract me more than ancient Chinese words. The description of Mu Lan, alovely girl compare with the one from the legend, she is alive and I can really image whoshe is instead of legend Mu Lan because she is too control herself. The reason I think is because the value inside me is that I buy in American Dream instead of born duties. Ithink most of the audience who love this movie more than the legend is because of that.Walt Disney is selling this movie to mostly western countries so they must know thevalue in people’s minds which can create the sympathetic response to the audience whichI think is smart. In all its a commercial company, they should know better of the market.That is why this movie achieved big success in box office till now, people can recall thedetail easily. In all, the adaption is a successful adaption which attracts audience.GEOLOGY 101 REPORT 9Work Cited1)Zheng Wei, The banana Mu Lan—Adaption of Mu Lan in the movie, 《Chang AnLiterature》20082)Brosten,G, Pers Soc Psychol Review, 2003;7(2):129-45.

So the personal value is the most important part than obligations.From the legend , the man priority is the mainstream value in traditional China but movie changed it.In the legend, Mu Lan is using the loom at home we can tell she is kindof girl who will not stand out her family and change the tradition. But the adaption version of Mu Lan , she is not obey what other people told her should to, she should be quiet when she was in the bride test, she said loudly “I am here.〞 When her father was sent to army, her traditional female mother said nothing at the house gate but crying. Mu Lan rushed out and drag her father’s hand and did not allow her to go.The reason caused these adaption is because the culture difference between Chinese and American. The value difference is the core. In China, the value of collectivism is the most important part in society, in long run of history, the agriculture is the economic base, so the collectivism could help people survive in the society, the unit is family. The family organization influent most the Chinese family, so do the duties to the parents is the most important part. The right of succession is by family blood, male to female, older to young, so this succession tradition influenced women’s position and the limit of people will be influenced by their economic position.To be different, the American was influenced by individualism. The American Dream saying that no matter your background, who you are, if you have a dream you should reach and grab it by yourself. This value is developed by Renaissance world view, the Declaration of Independence also mentioned that people are born fair, the rights are all equals to people. American people raise up their children by a individual person and respect their personality; their child who is over 18 years old should try to raise up themselves instead of living together; when you become adult , you don't have to share your money your parents. The original Mu Lan is try to praise Chinese traditions so do the adaption version, that is why the difference come.Part III My UnderstandingA tradition story and a movie are two symbols. Legend is using the words, so the audience will use their imagination to image their own version of hamlet. For Mu Lan, it is a short story, i.e. there are only 30 words to describe the detail of the war, but the movie put two more characters and used more than 10 mins to draw how a brave girl Mu Lan is. That is to say, movie has to be adapted.Personally I love more the adaption movie. I have to the the way with visual and real words will attract me more than ancient Chinese words. The description of Mu Lan, a lovely girl compare with the one from the legend, she is alive and I can really image who she is instead of legend Mu Lan because she is too control herself. The reason I think is because the value inside me is that I buy in American Dream instead of born duties. I think most of the audience who love this movie more than the legend is because of that. Walt Disney is selling this movie to mostly western countries so they must know the value in people’s minds which can create the sympathetic response to the audience which I think is smart. In all its a commercial company, they should know better of the market. That is why this movie achieved big success in box office till now, people can recall the detail easily. In all, the adaption is a successful adaption which attracts audience.Work Cited1)Zheng Wei, The banana Mu Lan—Adaption of Mu Lan in the movie, 《Chang AnLiterature》20082)Brosten,G, Pers Soc Psychol Review, 2003;7(2):129-45.
