passage 23 女性文學不是只有偉大
★★★☆
文章講解:
①Only since the late 1960s have literary scholars attempted to establish an accurate and systematic literary history of women novelists. ②Many previous histories suffered from “Great Traditionalism,” an approach that, by limiting itself to a group of women writers termed “great,” ignored the diversity among women novelists. ③These histories excluded the minor novelists, who are the links in the chain that binds literary generations together, and who allow us to see the continuities in women’s writing. ④Given the distortions produced by this concentration on “great” writers, as well as the obviously problematic tendency of many literary scholars to apply stereotypes of femininity, it was not surprising that?some literary scholars in the early 1960s?evaded the important issue of women’s sexual identity entirely, focusing instead on the form and style of women’s writing. ⑤Such an approach, while insightful and very valuable, did not consider the crucial connection between women’s writing and changes in their legal and economic status.
