A series of these
2、 famous works marked the appearance of feminine literature. In brief, feminine literature consists of works written by women, in which are embraced feminism and feminine thoughts. Feminine self-awareness and self-imagination propagated in these works. My direction of research is unearthing these typ
3、ical images in these representative works. As we all know, Charlotte Bronte and Jane Austen are representative authors in the 19th century. They wrote many typical characters, in which Jane and Elizabeth are the most typical. They have distinct qualities; therefore, they were special in their time.
4、They stood for the women who had their own value and world outlook. In recent studies, people have found, these typical images reflected the feminism. Wang Xiao Yun, who is a famous professor pointed that the 19th century was a period that literary feminism appeared. But someone did not agree, they

8、？看来，这个问题已 经问了半个多世纪了，看样子还会继续问下去。面对这个问题，女性文学研究界表现出令人难堪的失语状态。这是因为这个问题触及到了两千多年来历史的盲点和性别意识的误区，不是三言两语所能够解释清楚的。记得在年代中期，伴随着女作家创作的繁荣和“女性文学”这个概念的出现，报刊上围绕着什么是女性文学这个问题出现了热烈的争论。据谢玉娥编纂的女性文学教学参考资料所 载，大体上有这样几种界定。一种意见是只要是女性写的就是女性文学（不言而喻男性写的就是男 性文学），这是一种非常便捷的按性别分类的方法。第二种意见是按性别加题材加风格的分类，即女 性文学是女性所写的表现女性生活体现了女性风格的文学。第三
9、种意见认为女性文学是女性所写 的表现女性意识的文学，即分类标准是性别加女性意识。还有一种意见认为虽然为男性所写但由于 具有女性意识也应该划入女性文学。这种界定由于概念外延过于宽泛模糊了性别这个前提，我们暂且将其排除在外，而仅对以上三种意见进行梳理辨析。第一种意见把女性文学仅仅看做一种按性别分类的文学，就像青年文学、儿童文学按年龄分类，西部文学按地区分类。 My Summary NotesZhang Xue Jiao Miss ZhouWriting for Study AboardWednesday 3-4September 25, 2012 The concept of feminine l

A very embarrassing question is what the feminine literature is. If we recognize that there is a literary faction about women, but what about masculine
11、? Along with abundant of feminine works appeared, many people began to pay attention to the exact concept of feminine literature. Some people hold the idea that feminine literature is written by women, but others argued that it should be divided by writing style, that is to say feminine literature i
12、s written by women and reflected thoughts of women. There are some people think that feminine literature is written by women and embraced feminism. However, some works written by man that contained feminism are also belonging to feminine literature. Therefore, we can not divide the feminine literature only by sex. Content and gist are real standards divide feminine literature.
