New Feminie: Rejection And Overthrow-An Exploration On "Love And Selfhood" In Modern Literature

Under the impact of the Wusi spirit, the former functions of rigorous invigilation and explanation under the restrictive man-centered system disappeared. In the new love interpretation, the new women proposed brand-new and acute discuss focused on the theme of "love and selfhood". Because of that specific age, the mainstream of thought and activities did not give adequate space and attention to the interpretation of this theme. And in the crevice of the age, the related writing, which focused on this theme, encountered the dual suppression from the literary criticism, which came from both the inhibition and misunderstanding of the mainstream of the ideology and literary criticism, and the prejudice and halfway work of the feminists. Beside the suppression of the outer man-power, the deeply embedded love of man-power in the spirit of the women is extremely horrible and the women's self suppression and devastation could not be eliminated easily.This thesis clears up the new feminine discuss of the topic - "love and selfhood" in the modern literature, which are their prime rejection for the principles of the man-power love and the new definition for love. It is different from the hopeless complain after being deeply involved in the tragedy. Firstly, as the opposite sample, the new feminie took great pain of life and youth to act as the next generation's sturdy alien of love and holy donator of the love dream. Gradually, they put forward the doubt and challenge in their own life's logic, but most of their attitude was equivocal grumbling. Finally, they found the breakthrough and had a clear view of their own love and life. During the rejection and rebellion of the new feminie, many important principles of the father-power, including "the women donate themselves wholly into the love", "the angel in the house", "libertine and mother model", "the women defined by love and marriage", "the man leads the love", "depressed women but do not complain", "love is the most important in the women's life", "man-centered women", were tore down. In this framework of traditional man-powered concepts, women's "virtue" and "vice" were redefined by re-interpretation and analysis of the related writings. In the traditional and mundane view point, the negative evaluation of the new feminie, including "alternative", "selfish", "lewd", "betrayed", "doubt", "undomesticated" and so on, actually concealed the brightness of life and slogan of freedom. But the suppression and torture that were put on the women are hided behind the so-called virtues such as "loyalty", "devotion" and "mercy".All the logic of the women's life, the new definition and interpretation of the new love, and the prime rejection of the man-powered love principles, are indispensable rebellion and advance in the women's life track as well as the important thread of love theme in the modern literature.
