试析《中国新文学大系·小说一集》的性别策略——以冰心早期创作为中心

On the Gender Tactic of the Chinese Neo-Literature Florilegium: Novels Collections, Vol. I —On Bing Xin's Early workds

在《中国新文学大系·小说一集》中,冰心是惟一一位受到特别关注的女作家。以茅盾为代表的编选者在确立新文学“关注现实,提出问题”的创作传统、赋予新文学历史合法性的过程中,选择冰心的“问题小说”进入这部“经典”,对其提出问题的社会意义给予肯定;与此同时,又自觉不自觉地对冰心小说所体现的具有女性性别内涵的社会问题思考做出了贬抑。该书的编选,对构建和彰显以男性为主导的新文学历史产生了重要影响,而此间女性历史和自我的双重主体性,一定程度上受到遮蔽。

Bing Xin was the only female writer that was paid special attention to in Chinese-Neo Literature Florilegium: Novels Collections, Vol. I. In order to build up realism as the law of Chinese morden literature and to prove its historical legitimacy, the editor Mao Dun chose Bubg Xun's “Problem Novels” and put them into this classics of Chinese modern literature. The social effects of her novels were affirmed, but at the same time her thoughts on gender were belittled. The edit of the book have played great role in the construction of Chinese modern literature as “man-centered” history. On the other hand, the subject and historical position of women came to be veiled to some degree.
