Yuan, Muzhi. Zhongguo ju zuo jia ji qi zuo pin. 中國劇作家及其作品 [Chinese Playwrights and Their Works]. Er schreibt : Ding Xilin's witticisms and his philosophy of relations between sexes are greatly reminiscent of the aestheticism of Oscar Wilde. His plays are all similarly set in beautiful drawing rooms, his characters chewing on tobacco pipes as they sit sunk in comfortable sofas. We call upon the author to move from aestheticism to materialism, out of the Salon and into society at larg. |

| 2 | 1947-1974 | Ding Xilin was the only playwright of the modern period who concentrated solely on writing comedy. His genesis as a dramatist can be credited in large measure to the inspiration he drew from the British and Irish writers whose work he had become familiar with while a student in England between 1914 and 1920. Ding once commented that his works ought to be regarded more as translations of foreign plays than as original creations. In the work of Ding and Oscar Wilde, a range of subsidiary themes, including relations between the sexes, as well as marriage and th4e place of women in society generally, and relations between one generation and another, are embedded in one fundamental theme : morality. |
