 Yuan drama is a wonderful flower in the splendid cultural treasure-house of the Chinese nation, which embodies unique characteristics in ideological content and artistic achievements. Tang and Song poetry and Yuan drama have become three important milestones of the history of Chinese literature.
-The Yuan Dynasty was the heyday of the Yuan drama. Generally speaking, poetic drama(杂剧) and non-dramatic song(散曲) are collectively called Yuan drama, and both use north drama as a singing form. Non-dramatic song is the main body of Yuan Dynasty literature. However, the achievements and influence of poetic drama far exceed that of non-dramatic song,so some people refer to Yuan drama singlely as "poetic drama", which is also "yuan dynasty opera".[1]

 What is the Chinese Dream?
 In November of 2012, soon after the conclusion of the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC), President Xi Jinping put forward, for the first time, the idea of the Chinese Dream on a visit to “The Road towards National Rejuvenation” exhibition at the National Museum of China. The Chinese dream meant for him the “great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.” The great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation “is a dream of the whole nation, as well as of every individual”, he said. Since then, use of the phrase has become widespread in official announcements and as the embodiment of the leadership's political ideology under Xi Jinping.
 General Secretary Xi Jinping defined the “Chinese Dream” as “realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, which is the greatest dream of the Chinese nation in modern times,” and said that this dream “will definitely be realized.” The core goals of the Chinese Dream can also be summarized as the “two centenary goals”, that is, by the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China in 2021 and the 100th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China in 2049, gradually and finally successfully realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, which is embodied in the prosperity of the country, the rejuvenation of the nation, and the happiness of the people. The way to achieve it is to take the road of socialism with Chinese characteristics, adhere to the theoretical system of socialism with Chinese characteristics, carry forward the national spirit, and gather Chinese strength. The means of implementation are political, economic, The five-in-one construction of culture, society and ecological civilization.
 What does “dream” mean in ancient China?
 Dream is the subjective experience, which is the image, sound, thinking or feeling produced by people during sleep, usually involuntarily; at the same time, dream is also an image language.
 The interpretation of dreams differs in English and Chinese. From the interpretation of “梦” and “dream” in Chinese and English dictionary, it can be seen that Chinese and Western countries have different views on the cultural connotation of dreams. In the ancient Chinese dictionary, a dream refers to an illusion in sleep. The interpretation of dreams in Origin of Chinese Characters is “unknown. The original meaning of dreams is unknown". Xinhua dictionary explained “‘梦’ is an associative compound character. The lesser seal character shape of which is composed of the three characters ‘宀’ (house), ‘爿’ (bed), and ‘梦’ (unknown).” It means sleeping in bed at night and seeing blurry vision, that is, dreaming. The metaphor of a dream means a fantasy, such as: dreamland, dream shadow and dream. Take Cao Xueqin’s A Dream in Red Mansions as an example. There were 32 dream images in the whole book which made it a classic full of metaphors. It used dreams as a narrative thread of the whole story and made meticulous description of the dreamland. The story ended up with tragedy, which corresponded with dream’s characteristic of “disillusionment and awakening.”
 Definition of “dream” in the English Oxford Dictionary is “A series of thoughts, images, and sensations occurring in a person's mind during sleep,” “A cherished aspiration, ambition, or ideal,” and “Joy，pleasure, gladness, mirth, rejoicing，jubilation; an instance of this” From this we can see that the elaboration of dreams in Chinese emphasizes their illusoriness and unreality, while the elaboration of dreams in English emphasizes their own beauty.

 What are the differences between the Chinese Dream and the American Dream?
-The American Dream, in a broad sense, refers to equality, freedom, and democracy in the United States. Narrowly, it refers to an ideal that believes that a better life can be achieved through hard work in the United States, that people must prosper through their own hard work, courage, creativity, and determination, rather than depending on a particular social class and aid from others, often representing people's economic success or entrepreneurial spirit. The American Dream is the crystallization of all things in American history, and has a unique symbolic and representative meaning. Therefore, the American Dream can also be seen as synonymous with American mythology.

 The Chinese Dream was defined by Xi Jinping as “realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, which is the greatest dream of the Chinese nation in modern times.” The word “rejuvenation” has a special meaning especially for China. It was nurtured in the history of the suffering of the Chinese nation in modern times, and came into being with the shattering of the dream of the Celestial Empire. Before modern times, Chinese civilization was in the forefront of the development of world civilization and made contributions to the development and progress of world civilization. However, with the rise of the capitalist mode of production and the acceleration of the modern industrial revolution, the feudal and autocratic China was soon ruthlessly abandoned by the wheel of history. When the Opium War broke out in 1840, the Western powers represented by the United Kingdom not only opened the door of China by force, but also shattered the dream of the rulers who were intoxicated by it. Following the bloody war, a series of unequal treaties that humiliated the country were forced to sign, and China gradually fell into the abyss of a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society. The journey of suffering has not only left a mark of humiliation on the minds of generations of Chinese people, but also inspired the national consciousness of the Chinese people who are united in their pursuit of survival. Since 1840, the Chinese nation has gone through 109 years in order to realize the Chinese Dream. The hundred years of humiliation has awakened the national consciousness and national spirit and lay the foundation of the “two centenary goals”. And the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation came into being.
 The Chinese dream corresponds to the American dream, but it is clearly different from the American dream. The dream of a country and a nation are emphasized, and then the individual. In fact, this is a family-state relationship originating from agricultural civilization, and the value judgment is that “without a state, there is no family.” The proposal of the “Chinese Dream” goes against the traditional Chinese understanding of dreams and regards dreams as a kind of beautiful prayer and pursuit. This is different from the illusory dreams in most traditional literary works, and is a positive wish of the national rejuvenation.
