由小说《一个女人》看明治时期“新”女性的悲剧

Tragedy of "New Woman" in Meiji Period from Perspective of A Woman

《一个女人》描写了有着民主自由意识与个性解放觉醒的主人公叶子,为了追求个性自由和解放经历了种种阻碍,最终在封建专制政治与封建传统思想文化的压迫之下惨遭失败。其悲剧既有社会责任,又有个人责任。在作者所设定的时代背景和社会环境中的叶子这一人物形象无疑具有典型意义,可以说她就是经过明治维新洗礼的"新"女性的缩影。

A Woman describes the heroine - YE ZI with the awakening of democracy, freedom and individual liberation. Having experienced various obstacles in the pursuit of individual freedom and liberation, she was ultimately defeated by the oppression of the feudal autocratic politics and feudal tradition, ideology and culture. This tragedy has its social and personal reasons. The character of YE ZI under that specific historical background and social environment has the typical significance undoubtedly. She can be said to be the epitome of the ＂new woman＂ after the baptism of the Meiji Restoration.
