The story describes Chiou-Who(秋胡) joins in the army and leaves his home for many years. Years after, on his way back home, he meets a beautiful woman and felt attracted by her. Interestingly, this attractive lady that he meets and flirts with in a mulberry field is actually his wife that he fails to recognize. This story has been performed by different genres, poem, novel, drama through different generations and gradually becomes a typical plot. My essay concentrates on the two important elements- time and space and discusses how the structure of “Chiou-Who Flirts His Wife” (〈秋胡戲妻〉) presents different significance through varies of expressive forms in literature. I characterize this drama as an interesting presentation in dual structure with lots of contrasts and conflicts. Three points will be brought into detail discussion. 1). I review various different descriptions of the same plot, “ Chiou-Who Flirts His Wife” (秋胡戲妻), then see how the ‘time’ means significance to woman’s virtue in the different scripts and in relation to that how the characters present their personalities through different generation and by different authors. 2). Through the analysis of the scene- arrangements, I intend to point out an interesting relation between the representation of the ambiguous space and taboo. 3). The personalities of the characters have been repetitively confirmed through various tests in term of either ‘time’ or ‘space’, especially through the moral test for a wife’s virtue in this story. The dual structure of the drama “Chiou-Who Flirts His Wife” (秋胡戲妻)has its original intention, the intention to tell a moral lesson through various inharmonious conflicts. However, this original tragedy drama has been altered with many comedic elements in order to please the audience and satisfy their preferences of comedy. Therefore, the conflicts of life and death, chaste and unfaithful in this drama become soften. The moral lesson about the virtue gradually loses its importance; instead of unsolved conflicts, the drama has been given to a different intention, from a serious moral lecture on woman’s virtue to a simple attempt to entertain its audience.
