《夜雨秋灯录》与《聊斋志异》中女性形象之比较

The Comparison of the Female Images in Ye Yu Qiu Deng Lu and Liao Zhai Zhi Yi

《夜雨秋灯录》是追慕《聊斋志异》的作品,二者都塑造出很多鲜明的女性形象。《夜雨秋灯录》中的女性形象是对《聊斋志异》的继承和发展,书中的女性更加贴近人情世态,并且具有更为自觉的主体意识。然而,书中大量出现的节妇、孝妇等形象则完全绕开了《聊斋志异》中的以情抗礼,而回到了纲常伦理的束缚之中,这是一种无奈的停滞。

Ye Yu Qiu Deng Lu is an imitative work of Liao Zhai Zhi Yi and both of the two fictions produce a lot of vivid female images. The female image in Ye Yu Qiu Deng Lu is the inheritance and development of that in Liao Zhai Zhi Yi. However, women in Ye Yu Qiu Deng Lu are closer to the real human world, and they have a more conscious awareness of ego-subject. Nevertheless, there are large numbers of faithful wives, dutiful wives and so on in the book who have lost the courage to rebel against the feudal ethics and patriarchy morality and have been back to the ethics of Confucianism, and this is a step backwards.
