dc.description.abstract | This thesis attempts to discuss the perspective of “space representation” in lesbians literature, including not only three main writers’ literature - Qiu Miao Jin, Chen Xue and Ba Wang Zhi, and that of other elegant lesbian narratives in 1990s as reference. In order to reread the “space” concept in lesbian narratives, which is incomplete, broken and difficult to search out the traces, the author attempts to observe from the symbolic space to a larger area of cultural codes, including “macro” and “micro” perspectives of space studies, and finally think about the “literary particularity” in space research. Base on the three main writers’ life stories and biographies, the author also discusses how these writers represent the “space” concept by words and how intricate are between “public space” and “private space”.
Unlike the "theme" type of classification in the past, which is lumping together all sundry lesbian fictions, this thesis demonstrates the issue of “historic approach” that re-combing the relations between history of lesbian writing and social movements. Not only maintaining “timing” in the frame of this thesis, but also highlighting the individual’’s life history and the specialties in works help us to rethink the path of research through the whole space research in "story line" type of narrative history. In addition to exploring lesbians with the "diaspora" narrative, the author also try to raise up the interlaced, resistive, and slashing power hidden in the lyric poetry of the narrative, which might be marginalized and forced to exile. Especially, the relationship between lesbian emotional politics and the history of lesbian literature beyond “diaspora” reveals lesbian experience under the global translation and local culture, as same as the response, negotiation, and confrontation in spatiality between text and history. As the result, the author wants to discuss deeply the archeological image shown by the space representation of lesbian writers when the history of lesbians literature faced a stigma.
