英文摘要 | The social order in China has changed in the last two decades as seen in the fictional depiction of love and courtship, and marriage and divorce with notable frequency and candor. This article examines the subject of divorce from a literary perspective, using Li Rui’s “Sham Marriage,” Ah Cheng’s “Northeasterners,” Liu Heng’s “Dogshit Food,” and Zhang Xianliang’s Half of Man IS Women. The first three short stones are expositions of marital gender conflict in which male disempowerment results from mismanagement of male patriarchal birthright; females step into the gap that the males leave when confusing machismo for authority thereby gain the upper hand. In Zhang’s novel, the husband realizes authority rests upon the exercise of successful strategies of power and not upon the bravado of machismo. In the end he bests his wife. |
