Zuo Zhuan is China's first narrative chronicle history book,representing the highest achievement of pre-Qin history.Shi Ji narrates the history of about three thousand years from the Yellow Emperor period to the Han Wudi period,through the analysis of the impact of women's words and deeds in these two books on all aspects of the country's social life,It can be seen that the whole national society has changed in the process from the development of slavery society to feudal society.This paper is divided into three chapters for discussion:The first chapter simply classifies the female characters mentioned in Zuo Zhuan and Shi Ji,Through detailed analysis of the different behaviors of women,their insights,insights,interests,and civilians,and the selection of typical female images for detailed analysis,Some of these women exert their unique political talents in the political life of the country;Some women put the interests of their country first in the event of an accident;Some women start from their personal interests and hinder national politics;Through the behavior of some women can reflect the characteristics of the times.Second chapter compares the marriage life of women in Zuo Zhuan and Shi Ji.During this period,women's marriage life can be roughly divided into two types: political marriage and free love.In political marriages,women are used as a bond of interest between political groups or a tool for communication between countries,People do n't pay much attention to women 's emotional needs as humans,which also makes women continue to fall victim to political power.At the same time,there are still some women who are boldly pursuing freedom of marriage,leaving a strong stroke in the history books.Zuo Qiuming showed in the Zuo Zhuan that some noble women accepted this fate,Sima Qian deeply sympathized with the noble women in the marriage and affirmed their resistance.The third chapter summarizes the concept of women in Zuo Zhuan and Shi Ji and analyzes the reasons for the difference between the two.It is believed that the difference is due to the different times of the two authors.In the social transformation in the pre-Qin period,the etiquette of the Zhou Dynasty still ruled the ideological behavior of the people of the time,and still dominated the field of consciousness.In the early Western Han Dynasty,a variety of ideas and concepts emerged.The interaction between heaven and man and learning about the Emperor Huang and Lao Tzu enabled Sima Qian to have a more inclusive view of women.It can be said that the era and social environment led to the limitation of Zuo Qiuming's ideology and concepts,which prevented Zuo Qiuming from reaching the height of Sima Qian's progressive feminine outlook in the relatively open era.Affected by different rites andpatriarchal rites,the female view of Zuo Zhuan advocates adhering to rituals,and the female view of Shi Ji is more open and inclusive.The basic understanding drawn by the author of the epilogue is: The concept of women held by Zuo Zhuan and Shi Ji has the same and different points,both of which affirm the feminine merits of state-owned merit,the difference is that Zuo Zhuan extols the image of women who observe rituals,and believes that the admiration of rituals is an indispensable part of safeguarding national interests.Compared with women themselves,they emphasize the national benefits.“Shi Ji”applauds women who dare to confront the ceremony,Sima Qian wrote a book for women who dared to confront the rituals by advancing the ideas of their predecessors,He affirmed their pursuit of freedom of marriage and individual liberation.
