On entering the literary world since 2002, the female writer Sheng Keyi, born in the 1970 th, has been receiving widespread concern and recognition from the critics. Her works are typical feminist literature texts. To study contemporary feminine literature, Sheng Keyi is a writer to be reckoned with. She has a keen perception of reality. She confronts cruelty and brutality of life dauntlessly, and reveals the dark side of humanity calmly, even grimly, with skilled and magical craftsmanship.Standing out from the internet, Sheng Keyi has a wide selection of themes on novel writing, among which there are works about rural women’s life struggle, urban lower-class women’s pursuit and disillusionment of love and marriage, resolution of classic love stories, reinterpretation of lumbersome history, allegorical inquiries about humanity, and ironical denouncement towards the mainstream ethics. This thesis takes the novels of Sheng Keyi as its research object, focusing its attention on the deconstructive awareness of the theme love and marriage, finding her deep concern about intersexual emotional dilemma hidden in carnivalized deconstruction and excavating the research depth of Sheng Keyi. This thesis is divided into the following sections:The first chapter discusses the deconstructive writing of Sheng Keyi’s novels on love and marriage narratives in three aspects respectively:First, it analyzes the deconstruction of traditional love myth in Sheng Keyi’s novels from the following three perspectives as living an unburdened life without being entangled in love, warming up each other in black despair and breaking through the encirclement through difficulties in modern era; that is, ripping love myth in an era without true love. Second, it reveals the paradox of love and marriage by analyzing these typical themes specifically on the middle-aged people’s marriage and contemporary urban youths’ living dilemma, namely, disillusioning their fond marriage dreams of adhering to ostrich policy. Finally, it analyzes the phenomenon of “Nala’s fleeing from home” in Sheng’s novel and reveals with highlight women’s living predicament, trying to seek a way of breakthrough for Chinese women, that is to say, “dismantling men’s prophecy of Nala’s fleeing from home”.The second chapter deeply explores and analyzes the queries towards traditional ethics and inquiries about humanity by taking the novel Ode to Morality as one example. First it discusses the sharp conflicts between individual free love theory and social morality of marriage in Sheng’s novels. Second, it questions the morality through deconstructive reinterpretation of the two sexes in the novel with eyes of moral judgment and through an ironical effect formed by the traditional ethical return of the two sexes. Finally, it takes the sequel of the novel De Mao Tang as another possibility for the writer to fancy life. The writer takes humanitarian care of the behavior deemed by traditional ethics as “immoral” to achieve the purpose of discussing morality deconstruction.The third chapter mainly discusses Sheng’s subversive writing towards Phallocentrism. First of all, it seizes the characteristics of her works’ weakening men’s image to analyze the writer’s preference in arranging figures of “big woman” and “little man”, declaring the shattering of men’s myth in literature. Then it starts from the writer’s ridicule and cutting of men’s genital organ to challenge the patriarchal ideology in a much more direct way. At last, it takes Sheng’s works of revenge as its research object to analyze with focus the image of “angry Medea” in achieving the final result of expounding the deconstruction of male centralism.
