Since the "May Fourth" New Culture Movement, women's issues were continued to be mentioned as a powerful tool of anti-feudal and anti-traditional. The liberation of women were concerned by the general public, especially the women. In the "personal liberation" "human liberation" banner, the fate of the women who have had oppressed by patriarchal and persecution of the feudal undergone historic changes. In this tide of the enlightenment culture of the agitation, Chinese modern women's literature were born. Chinese mordern women writers, for example, Cheng Hengzhe,BingXin,LuYin,Feng Yuanjun,Ling Shuhua,and the latecomers, such as Ding Ling,Xiao Hong,Su Qing,Zhang Ailing, they used their own feminist consciousness to describe the true feelings of women who in the face of historical change, and the chose of their's fate. The women seemingly completed the historic mission of its own through the body's liberation and the emancipation, however, the liberation of women in these women writers's literature was not a smooth road. Women's liberation along the way love-marriage-career, every progress was accompanied by pain and struggle, women faced so many difficulties and could not achieve true liberation.In the time of early May Fourth Movement, seeked "human liberation",freedom of marriage and love was becoming the new women's consensus. However, even if they jumped out of the feudal prison, they couldn't broke the feudal yoke in their hearts. "I would rather die than not be free."The lofty aspiration did not give women a fundamental change in life, but on another hand, its showed the limitations of women's liberation was only for freedom of marriage and love. After the victory of freedom of marriage and love, incoming, were practical problems of women's liberation. Women trapped in the contradictions which the liberation of themselves, emotional confusion, and confusion of life. Late of the "May Fourth", the emergence of Ding Ling marked the women's liberation got a step forward in the spiritual level. In her works, Ms. Sophie pursuited love so bravely, and respected her secret inner consciousness of love, this image gone beyond the image of women of other writers. But Sophie constantly face the body and soul in love confusion and contradictions, the inner unity of body and soul to establish the standards of modern love has suffered the impact of social reality at that time. From the early of 20's to the late of 30's, until the 40's, in the background of diversification of literary writing, Su Qing and Zhang Ailing placed the women on the edge of survival at the same time, drawing the scene of their survival. True state of existence was the most exposed to the liberation of women in the process of hesitation or even declined.What is the fate of the liberation of women? On the face of modern literature in the field of women of different age, different areas, different classes of women and the struggle against their liberators, and the insurmountable limitations, we must ask as the main body of the liberation of women——What do they want on earth? In today's environment, women's liberation may be have a new understanding.
