父权阴影下的女性之痛——毕飞宇《玉米》系列小说论

毕飞宇的系列中篇《玉米》、《玉秀》、《玉秧》是一个常讲常新的话题。从女性主义角度看,上世纪七八十年代中国乡村的这三姊妹承载着千百年来的女性痛楚,沉默而无望地挣扎在阴森压抑的父权阴影之下。玉米是父权伦理最后的悲情守护神;玉秀作为父权文化的欲望客体根本无法逃脱被消费被毁灭的天罗地网;玉秧虽然跻身＂城里人＂行列,但终究跳不出滋生权威人格的文化土壤,被吞噬乃是必然的结局。

The Misery of Women in Patriarchal Shadow

The trilogy of Yumi, Yuxiu and Yuyang by Bi Feiyu has been frequently mentioned in the world of literary criticism. In the respect of feminism, the three country sisters in the 70s and 80s of the last century bear the pain and anguish of women descending from hundreds of years ago, struggling in vain under the suffocating patriarchal shadow. Yumi can be viewed as the last tragic guard of the ethic of patriarchy while Yuxin an objective of de sires destined to be ruined by patriarchy. Yuyang, ascending into the circle of ＂townsman＂ though, cannot eventually break through the encirchng of patriarchal culture.
