母性神话的解构:“五四”女性作家关于母亲的书写

Depiction of Mothers in the May Fourth Movement-A New Construction of Maternal Myth

"五四"女性作家从女性的角度出发,以母亲的名义进行书写,讴歌母爱,抒发母女之间的真挚情感,同时也反思母性的缺陷,来拆解传统母性价值,解构母性神话,重新认识母亲的地位。她们对父权社会中神圣母性的解构,一方面体现在对父权话语强加于母亲身上的虚构神话的清除,重塑一个新的母亲形象,另一方面,也是建构女性自身的性别文化价值,建构女性自身传统的开始。

The woman writers in the May Fourth Movement started to write about mothers, from a female perspective, in efforts to extol maternal love, express the true affections between mothers and daughters, while at the same time reflecting the shortcomings of maternal instincts, so as to decompose the traditional maternal value, reconstruct maternal myth and revalue their roles. During the process, they cleansed the false myth imposed on them by the patriarchal verbal system in order to set up a new image of them, and at the same time, build their sexual cultural value, beginning the female tradition reconstruction of their own.
