As the most three distinguished Chinese modern authoress, Xiao Hong , Ding Ling , Zhang Ai Ling always are the researching hot spot. Since 1990s, with the introduction of various western theories such as feminism, the research of their writings about war enters a white-hot stage, relation between feminine and nation state becomes the hot point. Take Liu He's research on "Life and Death Ground" as an example, researchers incline to look for the evidences of nation state's repression to feminine from Xiao and Dings' writings, emphasize the writer's feminine position exceeding to nation position; While Zhang Ai Ling whose writings were divided out of grand narrative in past is now brought into nation state narrate. Inevitably, all research rewrite a text in different degree, because of theory tactics or ideology limitation. Since being the selectivity understanding and explanation, flaws are unavoidably disclosed in the respect of the text choice, the detail quotation etc. My thesis will study the research writings through a vision of relation between feminine and nation state, bring up the following questions: Why these texts are chosen? Why are they explained like that? In what degree are they rewritten? What are the purposes for rewriting? Also point out binary opposition between feminine and nation sate is not reasonable both in theory and in practical text. The difference of class and status inside women make the question more complicated. Besides, attempt to make a sincere explanation through text reading, combined with the writer's life and other writings.
