浅议西汉妇女的地位

西汉时期已确立了儒家思想的统治地位,随着西汉礼制的不断加强,男尊女卑、男强女弱的思想逐渐渗透到社会的各个角落,深刻影响了妇女的社会地位.妇女在家庭婚姻中处于被支配、被主宰的地位,无权决定自己的命运.在政治生活中,社会不仅没有赋予她们独立的社会地位,而且剥夺了她们的政治权力,他们不能独立地、直接地参与政治事务,最多只能通过依附于丈夫或儿子对政局产生影响.

On Women's Status in WeStern- Hah Dynasty

The dominant status of the Confucian ideology was established in Western-Han Dynasty. As feudal etiquette and ethic had been strengthened continuously, the idea that men are strong and noble while women are weak and humble penetrated into every corner of the society, which deeply influenced women's social status and marital status. This paper discusses women's status in Western-Han Dynasty from social political life to marital life. In family and marriage, women were controlled by men and could not decide their futures. In social political life, the society deprived women not only of their independent social status but also of their political rights. They could not participate in political affairs directly and independently with the only possibility of influencing the affairs by attaching to men indirectly.
