论“红颜祸水”观在水浒小说中的变迁

On Changes of the Concept of "Women-as-Roots-of-Troubles" in Shui Hu Novels

"红颜祸水"一度被人讲述得理直气壮,可随着社会的进步,人们逐步认识到"红颜祸水"只不过是男性开脱责任的借口,女性与男性应该享有平等的地位,从水浒小说中可以清晰地看出这种观念的变化:在《水浒传》中"红颜祸水观"比较强烈,到《水浒后传》、《后水浒传》中出现了松动,而到了《荡寇志》与《新水浒》,"红颜祸水"观已经得到完全改观。

The concept of ＂women-as-roots-of-troubles＂ has once been taken for granted by many people.With the progress of the society,people gradually realize that the concept of ＂women-as-roots-of-troubles＂ is only men’s excuse for exculpation of their responsibility but women and men should have equal status.The change of this concept is clearly shown in Shui Hu novels.It is strongly suggested in Shui Hu Zhuan,and then it becomes weak in both Shui Hu Hou Zhuan and Hou Shui Hu Zhuan,and has been completely changed in Dang Kou Zhi and Xin Shui Hu.
