“落后妇女”——农业合作化叙事中的“症候”

"Backward Fmale Images":"Symptom" in the Collectivization of Agriculture Narratives

在20世纪50-70年代农业合作化题材的文学作品中,出现了一个人数众多的"落后妇女"群体,她们思想品德不佳,好吃懒做,出身不好,同时还伴有身体的病痛。狂热的农业合作化和人民公社运动在当时造成的劳动力的巨大缺口,是这类人物大量出现的时代原因和逻辑起点。她们的大量出现及其躯体的反应是女性婚姻、女性生育、女性健康、女性身份与激进运动紧张关系的表征,同时也成为农业合作化叙事无法消弭的"症候"。

There appeared a large number of “backward female images” in the fictions with materials about the collectivization of agriculture in 50s-70s in the 20th century. These images exhibited poor morality and bad family background, and they were gluttonous, lazy and sick. The probable origin that this kind of images sprang up was the fanatic agriculture collectivization which was a movement to form people＇s communes across the countrYside and made a serious labor insufficiency. It was also the display of tense relationships between this radical movement and the females＇ marriage, reproduction, health and female identities. At the same time, it was also a “symptom” which could not be averted in the narratives on the collectivization of agriculture.
