Abstract

Mi Yingxian, native of Hubei Chongyang, was the recognized founder of Peking opera. In the periods of Qianlong and Jiaqing, he brought his Hubei Han tune to Beijing. He became the leader role of Chuntai Troupe, one of the four Hui troupes. Later, the Han tune converged with Hui tune, which marked the formation of Peking opera. Mi Yingxian was one of the key figures in the confluence of the Han tune and Hui tune. For two hundred years he was recognized as the ancestor of elderly male characters in Peking opera circle and has enjoyed a high reputation in the history of Chinese opera. But unfortunately, such an important artistic master with national influence hasn't been paid enough attention in Xianning City and Chongyang County. This paper has evaluated Mi Yingxian's outstanding position in the history of Chinese opera, analyzed the current situation and problems in the development and protection of his opera culture, and put forward corresponding countermeasures and approaches.
