As we all know, the Sheep Man appeared in the middle of the night, wrapped in sheepskin, claimed to escape from the war, and gave key instructions. Sometimes I think, sheep man? Why not horse man? Bull man? Some people laugh, of course they have to laugh, why bother to get to the bottom of it? It's just a symbol.Presumably something like XYZ could be substituted. Sheep male = Y. But after all, this is a novel rather than a proof question. If it is a proof question, this article is meaningless. About four months ago, I went to the Guangzhou Book Shopping Center with a very clear goal - a translated version.The book was successfully bought, and two plays of "Hamlet" and "Oedipus the King" were also bought by the way.It's strange, I don't want to watch any drama, but I just saw a rare booklet, the price is very ideal, I haven't bought a book under ten yuan for a long time.

We all know the stories of Hamlet and Oedipus the King, so how can it be related to the sheep man? But there are still some strange things in the world. One night in May, I turned on the computer as usual, and it took less than a minute for the machine to start up. Usually, I stared at the screen in a daze to pass the time. Unexpectedly, I was a little impatient that day, so I took out a book from the bookshelf and opened it, and my eyes caught it at will. A few words, a sentence or two.A minute is too easy to kill. See what you caught today. "The singer wears a goat's horn hat and a goat's skin"

"There is a leader who is called a chorus." I put the book back on the shelf, turned my gaze back to the screen, the mouse pointer was already waiting in the middle of the screen, and I opened IE casually. It's hilarious, in sheep's clothing. Hey, wait a minute, isn't the sheep man just wearing sheep's clothing? But that book just now doesn't seem to be Murakami's book. Where is the chorus leader? How could it be "them"? Sheep men are always the same. strangeness. His gaze could not help but turn back to the bookshelf. What I just read was "Oedipus the King", a passage in the preface:

"The ancient Greek tragedy was developed from the oral account of Dionysus. The singer wore a hat with goat horns and a goat skin, and dressed as the companion of Dionysus Satylos (meaning: sheep man). Later , evolved into a leader called the Chorus, who performed with other actors in a way of answering, which is the origin of ancient Greek tragedy. The ancient Greek word 'tragedy' originally meant 'song of the goatman'." Then, I opened the search page, entered "the origin of tragedy in ancient Greece", and got the following paragraph: "In ancient Greece, when the grapes were ripe, a grand festival was held, and on this festival, Dio, the god of wine, was sacrificed. Nixos, therefore, during these songs and dances, some people began to play characters. At first, they played the roles of "sheepmen", that is, people who sang and danced. In Greek, this kind of person is called Satyros "goatman". Then the "goatman" played a role in the carol of Dionysus, which began to produce drama. This time was 534 BC, and an Athenian named Te Spies, he first sang the carol of Dionysus in the middle of the Grape Festival and began to play characters and tell stories. So you may see in the "Encyclopedia" that the definition of drama is that actors play characters in front of the audience Therefore, Thespis was the first to adopt actors to play characters, and told stories about Dionysus, the god of wine, so drama began to be born.”

Sheep man was a long time ago. After all, this guy Murakami majored in drama. Finally, let’s talk about May Kasahara. Isn’t Kasahara May the somewhat neurotic 16-year-old girl in the film? What does it have to do with the sheep man? There is no sheep man in "The Strange Bird". Not referring to the May in the strange bird, but the May in "Twin Girls and the Sunken Continent", the earliest May. By the way, I don't know your name yet, I said. never heard of that? Have not heard. May, Kasahara May. May? May in May. Born in May? Where, born on August 21st. Why bother calling it May?

want to know? if possible. Do not laugh? I don't think so. When I was young, my family raised goats. goat? Do goats know? know. A goat with a very smart head, the whole family loves him like family. Goat May. I'm the fifth child of a farming family in Hokkaido, so it probably doesn't matter what my name is.  … Anyway, it's connected.
