从弗洛伊德到巴特勒——关于“性”的话语建构

From Freud to Butler:With Regard to Discursive Construction of Sex

考察从弗洛伊德到福柯和拉康等人关于性的论述,可以看到,性从一种生物学事实和文化源头变成了普遍话语的建构产物,从原因变成结果,其批判性逐渐削弱。在女性主义者那里,性成为一个政治批判概念。巴特勒则进行了一种反向工作:重建性的话语与生物学身体之间的关系,使女性欲望能生长并得以实现。她找到的途径是"述行"(Performative)。性最终被还原成一种未知,打开了一种新的可能维度。

From Freud to Foucault and Lacan,sex as a biological fact and cultural source became a product of general construction of discourse.The reason was changed into the result;its character of criticism gradually weakened.Many feminists regarded sex as a political concept.While Butler made a reverse work： to re-establish a relationship of the body and the discourse of sex so that the desire of women could be achieved.She found a performative way.Sex was reduced to an unknown eventually,which opened a new dimension of possibility.
