20世纪20年代的婚姻语法——顾颉刚与殷履安夫妇

On the Underlying Rules of Marriage in the 1920s:A Case Study of the Couple of Gu Jiegang and Yin Lvan

20世纪20年代新旧斑斓的婚姻状况是当时整个中国社会多元价值并存的微观镜像,也是矛盾和冲突交织爆发的经纬。顾颉刚和殷履安的婚姻提供了一个观察契机:知识分子秉持的新文化理念如何被自我践行,对个人生活产生怎样的影响。顾颉刚对殷履安采取了"新女性"启蒙教育,通过开列书单、引导实践新的生活方式等手段对她进行系统的现代观念的培养。在这个过程中,顾颉刚的教导逐渐具有知识压迫之势,其实是据以良善价值公认的正当性来强迫殷履安承受它们——这是一个由积极自由通向专制的悖论。启蒙者—丈夫这双重角色的失衡导致知识内在的公共性掩盖了夫妻之间的亲昵状态。随着近现代史和个人生命史的展开,20年代的婚姻语法逐渐消失。

The various marital condition in the 1920 s was a microscopic mirror image of the coexistence and conflicts of multiple values in Chinese society at the time.The marriage between Gu Jiegang and Yin Lvan provides an opportunity to observe how the new cultural ideas held by intellectuals are self-practiced and how they affect personal life.Gu Jiegang adopted"new women"enlightenment education for Yin Lvan,and cultivated her systematic modern concept withbook lists and the practice of new lifestyles.In this process,Gu Jiegang’s teaching gradually became an oppression of knowledge.He actually forced Yin Lian to accept them according to the validity of the value of goodness,which is a paradox from positive freedom to dictatorship.The imbalance of the dual role of being an enlightener and husband leads to the inherent publicity of knowledge masking the intimacy between husband and wife.The above-mentioned facts are the underlying marriage rules of the"semi-new and half-old family"in the 1920 s which gradually disappeared with the development of modern and personal history.
