Abstract

The Thai’s Lakhon Phanthang during King Rama the V period, entitled “BUAN HUAI LAO” by Luang Patthanaphongphakdee, was selected and adapted its contents from the Thai version of two Chinese historical novels, “WAN HUA LOU” and “WU HU PING XI”. They were translated into Thai language on King Rama the IV period. Therefore, they have both similarities and differences between the original novels and the manuscript of “BUAN HUAI LAO”. In addition, this adaptation also illustrates an influence of Chinese literature upon Thai literary work in the beginning of Rattanakosin period.
