ABSTRACT

Dog plays a very special role in ancient Chinese culture. It appears in the classical literature as an supernatural, loyal and brave image. The Qing Dynasty's note novel is exuberant, involving many aspects. The dog image embodied in it is not only the inheritance of Chinese classical literature, but also the distinct characteristics of the times. The dog images in the Qing Dynasty's note novels can be divided into three categories: the supernatural dog, the loyal dog and the erotic dog. These diverse dog images are the results of the penetration of androcentric consciousness, the inheritance of classical literature tradition, the utilitarian value consideration, and the objectification of women.
