摘要
“我只在乎那颗最小最寂寞的星星”,这句话可以看作虹影对底层女性书写的使命写照。贫民窟的童年经历是虹影的灵感来源,她以文学的方式再现底层女性的真实生活,从“底层人”的视角来重构被遮蔽的“她者”历史。在早期作品中,虹影以“悍妇”和“荡妇”形象展现底层女性在父权制婚恋关系中所承受的“说不出的黑暗”,揭开被遮蔽的第三世界底层女性幕布,来叙述真实的自己;中后期的底层女性书写里,虹影对世界有了一个新的看法,她从对立的性别矛盾中走出来,逐渐向新的两性相处模式靠近。在新作《月光武士》中,虹影借“月光武士”来寄托对底层女性精神力量的期许,而这一形象的出现和失败也让其重归神话,从矛盾的“他人拯救”最后落脚到个人身上。
The remark,'All I Care about is the Tiniest and Most Solitary Star',can be viewed as an epitome of Hong Ying's mission of writing about women at the bottom.Her childhood experience in the ghetto is the inspirational source for Hong Ying who,by way of literature,represents the real life of women at the bottom,reconstructing the history of a concealed female Other from the bottom point of view.In her early work,Hong Ying depicts the unspeakable darkness born by women at the bottom in the patriarchal marital relationship with the images of termagants and sluts,lifting the curtain on the concealed women living at the bottom of the Third World,in the revelation of a true self.In her mid-to-late writing about women at the bottom,Hong Ying has a new perspective on the world as she gradually moves to a new model of male and female cohabitation,away from the oppositional gender conflict.In her new work,Warriors in the Moonlight,Hong Ying expresses her expectation on the spiritual power of the women at the bottom by way of warriors in the moonlight,and the success or failure of this image as it appears helps it go back to the myth,dropping at the foot of oneself from the contradictory attempt to save others.
