巴金前期小说中的男性中心意识

巴金20世纪40年代以前的小说,常常在价值取向和艺术思维两方面呈现出漠视女性主体性的男性中心意识。在天使型受难女性的形象塑造中,巴金赞美盲目从夫、泯灭女性主体意识的封建妇德;在圣女型革命女性的形象塑造中,巴金把女性抽象化为男性精神拯救过程中没有女性生命实感的革命符码、性别符码。巴金前期小说中的男性中心意识,暴露出了中国现代启蒙文学、革命文学在性别观念上现代性不足的致命缺陷。《寒夜》等后期小说中,巴金克服了这一缺陷。

The "Male-Centered Mentality" in BA Jin's Early Novels

There is "male centered mentality" in BA Jins novels written before 1940, often ignore the principal nature of the female in value orientation and artistic thinking. In portraying the images of angelic women and suffering women, BA Jin extols the feudalistic woman virtue such as blindly following the husband and loosing womans principal mentality. In molding the holy images of revolutionary ladies, BA Jin gives ladies the abstraction of sexless and lifeless symbols in spiritual salvation of the male. The "male centered mentality" in BA Jins early novels betrays the fatal fact of lack of modernity in modern Chinese enlightening literature and revolutionary literature in gender awareness. In his later works such as the "Cold Night", BA Jin overcomes this vice.
