中文摘要:
  五四新女性是在學(xué)校這一現(xiàn)代教育平臺由新文化啟蒙話語塑造而成,她們的意識形態(tài)認(rèn)同來自新文化,是以個人主義為核心的正義倫理;而她們的性別認(rèn)同及相應(yīng)的關(guān)懷倫理,卻使其對“舊道德”下的女性同類有更多同情。為實現(xiàn)個人權(quán)利、維護(hù)神圣戀愛,她們“忽略”名分、委屈尊嚴(yán),在新舊道德的模糊地帶與有婦之夫結(jié)成特殊婚姻。而非正常婚姻關(guān)系的缺憾,愛情中隱含的性別等級,個人自由與關(guān)懷倫理的對立與沖突等,都導(dǎo)致她們陷入認(rèn)同危機(jī)。新女性身份認(rèn)同的困境,體現(xiàn)了“五四”正義倫理的道德局限,而五四文學(xué)表達(dá)的某種匱乏,亦源自這個局限。


英文摘要:
  New Ethics and Old Roles: The Identity Dilemma of New Women in the May Fourth MovementYang Lianfen·206·The new women of the May Fourth Movement were molded by the enlightenment discourse of the new culture at the modern education platform of the university. Their ideological identity, resulting from the new culture, was the individualismcentered ethics of justice. Their gender identity and the corresponding ethics of care, however, stirred their sympathy for other women shackled by the “old ethics.” Thus new women were seized by an identity crisis. For love’s utopia, they would even “overlook” their social status and sacrifice their dignity to enter into special marriages with married men at the ambiguous interface of the old and the new ethics. The flaws of an abnormal marriage, the hardships of a career woman and the petty worries of a housewife constituted a real life that was very distant from their dreams at university. The identity dilemma of the new women reflects the moral limits of the justice ethics of the May Fourth movement. These limits also account for a kind of deficiency in the expression of May Fourth literature.
