Chinese Contemporary Feminist Literary Criticism Advantages And Disadvantages

Feminist Literary Criticism in China has more than twenty years. In the development of the theory it has made the grade and can not be ignored. In large measure, it opens up the Literary Criticism as space. As a form of Literary Criticism, Feminist Literary Criticism has got its own position in Chinese criticism world because of its special attitude and standpoint. But at the same time, Feminist Literary Criticism has a number of questions that can not be ignored in its self-development. In large extent it hampered the integrality and scientific of the theory building. Chinese Feminist Literary Criticism is learned from the Western Feminist Literary Criticism theory resources. Because of its lack of theoretical, as well as restrictions of the development, Chinese Feminist Literary have the distance to understand the Western Feminist Literary Criticism. Some critics apply blindly the Western Feminist Literary Criticism, leading to the Chinese Feminist Literature deviate from the theory guidance, as well as the construction of the Feminist Literature's lost itself what thus makes our Feminist Literary Criticism focuses too much on the Western theories, while ignoring the localized context of construction and the poetic literary reflection of the Feminist Literary. Western Feminist Literature is certainly worthy of absorbability and reference, but overall Westernization and blind application only lead to the self-isolation and absence, and the loss of the self-saying practice, which only blindly follow for the Western theory.Study of Chinese Contemporary Feminist Literary Criticism puzzledom and the problems of the construction, we found that the lack of theory has led to Feminist Literary Criticism of China shortage of discourse, which eventually lead to the loss of Feminist Literary Criticism of the building difficulty, but also lead to the embarrassing situation of the feminist literature writing. Take the"Body Writing"in 90's as an example, there the two states of writing give a preliminary study and reference text for the Feminist Literary Criticism development. 90's rage of the so-called"Beauty Writers","Baby Writers"is the misreading and misunderstanding to the theory, who abandoned the cultural dignity of women and female's self-examination and self-discipline and faith, what the merchants and media had utilized, even they got in a male-centered. Those deviated from the purpose of feminist literature to express feminist consciousness and to reflect female life experience that by reason of Feminist Literary Criticism being not well in time to guide the writing, thus leading to the writer's misunderstanding the theory and the general public misunderstanding of feminist literature and criticism. Nevertheless, the writers at that time like Zhang Jie, Wang Anyi, Tie Ning, etc. represented by female writers adhered to their own creative practice and developed the Feminist Literary Criticism of the"Body Writing", the Chinese feminist pioneer meaning and spirit text they created that enlightened and pervaded contemporary writing. In the text they implemented the private space connect with the outside world successfully with an open mind, showing not only the depth of the women's inner world; but also a breadth dialogue to the history, culture and social and acquiring a broad space for women's freedom of writing. Their feminist text displayed a depth cultural consideration for Chinese local characteristics of the female gender, also did directly or indirectly for the performance of the local characteristics of Chinese society, history, nationality, home, etc. for a deep-seated consideration. It can be said that their writing is for a depth reading and understanding to the feminist literary theory and practice of criticism. To reflect the theory building by writing and to get a clear understanding of current difficulties by the practice of criticism that gave a positive promoting for our current Feminist Literary Criticism development and theory building, also provided a powerful reference text for the theoretical construct.Chinese Contemporary Feminist Literary Criticism development should base on localization context construction, as a reasonable learning and use of Western Feminist Literary Theory resources to build a self-characteristics theory context. Pay attention to the local context literary poetic view and appropriate cultural reflection and analysis in popular culture context. While actively exploring the development space of feminist literary criticism, shape the distinctive self-characteristics statement context. Feminist Literary Criticism first of all is Women's literary criticism, it gets special attitude and standpoint; Feminist Literary Criticism is also literary with the universality of literary criticism. Thus, we should not only try to build local characteristics female gender poetics, but also to ensure and expand the literary poetry reflection.
