Tie Ning has been one of the representatives of female writers in China since 1970, who still insists on writing today. Her works in different periods, especially the novels, occupy an important position in the literary world at the present age. The text tries to examine the panorama of Tie Ning's novels from an overall angle, hackling and taking apart the unusual Feminism Consciousness in the novels. The text proceeds from the research of female literature and strives to illustrate the significant status of current literary world through the Feminism Consciousness with Tie Ning's works as a case study.The text includes the following three parts:The first part is the gender expression of Feminism Consciousness, including the acknowledgement of the natural sex and highlighting of the social sex. The nature sex representation of the Feminism Consciousness includes the pursuit and admiration of the healthy and esthetical aspect of females' bodies, the detailed display of females' particular living activities and life experiences, the natural revealing of the female desire after the awakening of the Feminism Consciousness. The social gender in Tie Ning's novels is reflected not only in the discovery and development of three social roles: daughter, wife and mother, but also in the thoughts and rebellion of these social roles that have been determined by the society since thousands of years ago. It depicts the existing poor situation of females suppressed by the fatherhood and the fact of the subsistence of them.The second part discusses the cultural awareness of the Feminism Consciousness, including indication of the dominant position of males and introspection of the subject position of females. The males' domination can be traced back to the historical and cultural background. Besides, it analyzes the feeble status of the females in the male-centered culture and the reason for it. The introspection of females contains the establishment of the principal part of the females and the brown study of the humanity of the females. In other words, on one side, the females definitude their importance and commit to real activities in the male-centered world, and on the other hand, there are polarization concerning the humanism of females. Through the contradictory behavior of women in the novels, we can find the weakness of the females themselves,and in this sense the novels can purify the humanity of females.The third part elaborates on the narration strategy of the Feminism Consciousness, including the innovation of the narration visual angle, the creation of the narration mode and the development of the significance, the artistic imagination of the narration language. The innovation of the narration visual angle contains the establishment of the Third Sex Visual Angle and the experiment of the interchange of the male-female visual angle. The narration mode is about the text innovation: tape style and plot splitting style. The artistic imagination of the narration language talks about the implicit expression of female experiences by means of the metaphor. All of those illuminate the writing strategy of the Feminism Consciousness.The text attempts to have an insightful analysis of Tie Ning's works in depth and probe into her writing style through the three parts above in order to have a better understanding of the Feminism Consciousness in her novels.
