The Female Writing in the 1990 s was a new stage and had a wide impact in the development of Chinese feminist literature.In the paper,the important literary phenomenon of the new period is taken as the object of this study.In the view of Western Feminist Literary Theory(especially the theory of "body writing"),this paper focuses the study of female writing in the 1990 s on the acceptance of Western Feminist Literary Theory,the "misreading" or "misunderstanding" arising in this process and examines its reasons by using comparative methods.The academia has discussed a lot about the influence and application of Western Feminist Literary Theory in China.However,for the use of a foreign theory,we inevitably have some lack of understanding,and some of which important issues do not cause enough attention and correction.This paper is divided into four chapters.The first three chapters focus on theories of misreading and misuse in the practice of female writing in the 1990 s.It selects representative writers and works in order to discuss the misreading in Chinese female writing in terms of connotation,concept,perspective writing and consumer culture orientation based on feminist theory and combined with narrative theory,comparative literature,consumerism culture communication and other theoretical research methods.The fourth chapter tries to methodically analyze the reasons of above “misreading” on the basis of the first three chapters.This chapter also tries to find out the new ways of contemporary female writing mainly from the following three aspects---“the influence of Chinese cultural traditions and limitations in social development stage”,“limitations in female writers' life experience” and“the lack of reading theory”.Female writing has an obvious effect on promoting female self-awareness.However,we need to systematically analyze and study the misunderstanding in Chinese contemporary female writing as it is obvious to see contemporary female writing and its development is not very satisfying after “female writing” in the 1990 s.So there are radical critics that female writing has fallen into self-replication.This paper attempts to find the way to solve the problem from the root of the theory,which is of great significance and value to the creation of contemporary female literature and the development of feminism in China.
