The phenomenon of mariticide in the female novels since 1980s, it has become a symptom which worth drawing full attention. These versions of mariticide are absolutely different from the pattern "no evil can not kill" in which the ancient Chinese feudal society demonized women and thought them as lustful females. Reading these texts, we will find the reasons of mariticide, the cultural constraints, the embarrassment of the subject and the object in the mariticide story. Li Ang describes the supernatural force of violent mariticide in the traditional fanning society. In the commercial times, Chi Li describes a mariticide story in which the heroine breaks down the lies to restore the historical truth by a cool revenge. At the beginning of the new century, some women writers pay attention to the social reality of urban women who are from the rural, these urban underclass women enforce violent mariticide in order to maintain self-esteem. Up until to barrier and antagonism between people's cold violent killing without fighting in Ye Mi's writing. Disregarding space-time, difference of culture background, these works all have shown this subject of mariticide simultaneously. Mariticide is an event occasionally in individual life, however, literature is the outcome of social life and culture, which is worth studying and discussing for us.This thesis concerning the cultural background aims to clean up the female novel concept, bring the mariticide's subject and object into the literary aesthetic space, clarify the concept of "female novel", analyze the cultural constraints and survival mode behind the comitting of the mariticide's subject, investigate the rationality of self-help, induct and explain the "marginal person" syndrome of mariticide's object, discuss the deep intention of culture in the novel, probe into psychological conflict and cultural feeling in the process of female novelist. In short, these female novelists attempt to combine female with self, male, society and times to think showing solicitude in the female tragedy destiny. At the same time, they also give some kind of common customs humanity to this group of weak power male group. They reveal the phenomenon of mariticide projected by the issue of a new era, and explorate the cultural context of women and the plight of the real life during the transition period.
