吴地女子"内刚"品性溯源

On the Origin of Women's Quality of "Inner Firmness" in Wu Area

吴地自元、明、清以来,上层女子在文学创作中以追求豪放洒脱为荣,并形成了女子诗文、弹词的创作群体;中下层女子从事各种行业的劳动,谋求经济自立。她们在各自人生的征途中,自发萌生了自强、"内刚"的意识。在吴地近代化历程中,吴地女子的这一意识与近代女权、男女平等思想的融合,形成了"外柔内刚"的品性,为吴地社会的发展增添了内动力。

Since Yuan,Ming,Qing Dynasties,upper_class women have been pursuing bold and unconstrained style in literary creation and formed a writing group of women poetry and Tanci (local opera in Wu);Women of middle and lower classer have been laboring in different trades and seeking for economic independence.They have conceived the consciousness of self_improvement and 'inner firmness' in their different life.This consciousness,merged with the ideas of modern women's rights and sex equality,has formed the quality of 'inner firmness with gentle appearance' and contributed internal dynamic force to the social development of Wu area.
