英文摘要 | This paper analyzes the “communication gap” between a number of. Western feminists and Chinese women intellectuals. Failing to pay attention to the pluralities of feminism, some Western feminists have adopted a one-sided perspective and a dogmatic approach. Elevated by their stance of moral and intellectual superiority and assuming Western feminism to be a universal standard, they fail to listen to alternative points of view from various Chinese women intellectuals, often interpreting these views from a rigidly ideological academic perspective common in contemporary Western identity politics. As a result, radical feminists’ readings of Chinese literature are often flawed. This article also examines the characteristics of Chinese feminology-homegrown feminism and women’s studies-as advocated by Li Xiaojiang and her group, while pointing out its differences from Western feminism due to different cultural, historical, and political contexts. It encourages Western feminist critics to try to recognize, understand, respect, and accommodate differences, in order to enter into a genuine dialogue with Chinese feminists and scholars in women’s studies. To eschew erroneous readings of Chinese literature, critics must turn aside from academic Western feminism as the monolithic standard with which to pass judgment on Chinese literature and writers. By respecting and accommodating the variety of standpoints on gender among Chinese women writers and other intellectuals, literary critics would almost surely embark upon more balanced and accurate interpretations of gender dynamics in Chinese literature. |
