Abstract

In recent years, the related research on Zhuge Liang's belief has gradually attracted people's attention. The research on Zhuge Liang's image mainly comes from historical documents. Under the influence of literature, drama and myths and legends, the image of Zhuge Liang has become more abundant. It can be seen in most of the literature works that Zhuge Liang combines many qualities such as "loyalty", "wisdom", "virtuous minister", "good general", "clear discrimination" and "extreme filial piety". After the baptism of history and the cleaning of sand, the belief in Zhuge Liang gradually formed and became a cultural symbol. By consulting and collecting a large number of materials, the article will discuss the image of Zhuge Liang's belief, the connotation of Zhuge Liang's belief, and the development of Zhuge Liang's belief and its reasons.
