The Changes Of Female Images In Haruko Niushima’s Literary Works(1936-1956)

The special environment of "Manchuria" has created a group of Japanese female writers.Haruko Ushijima followed her husband to "Manchuria".She originally wore "sin" and started a new life here.In "Manchuria",she not only became the high-ranking "Manchuria" official wife,but also became a well-known Japanese female writer active in the "Manchuria" literary world and began her writing career.From the original Japanese proletarian revolutionary movements to the consciously writing for the Japanese colonial rule.She began to slowly immerse herself in the myth of the "five-nations,kings and morals" advertised by the Japanese colonial rulers,and began to enjoy the convenience and superiority brought by the "official wife" status,and finally forgot her own beliefs and pursuits.Manchuria is the place where Ushijima Haruko’s dream come true.Here,she successfully entered the Manchurian literary world with the help of her identity.In the early creation of "Manchuria",she deliberately avoided her own female identity,emphasized the male perspective in her writing,and described the all-male image with a male-like and powerful stroke.She promoted the "founding spirit" in the form of novels and smeared the establishment of "Manchuria".With the publication of "Zhu Lian tian",Haruko Ushijima quickly became popular in the "Manchuria" literary world and attracted wide attention in Japan.At the same time,the identity of Ushijima Haruko began to be known to the world.The exposure of female identity broke the speculation of the outside world,which not only triggered a discussion,but also brought a major impact on her literary creation.In Zhang Feng Shan,she no longer dared to openly write in a male identity,but began to enter the state of "having me" and began to try to switch from "backstage" to "foreground" and switch to a female perspective for creation.After changing the way of creating through the male perspective in the past,her literary creation also began to show women’s perceptual consciousness and thinking gradually from the previous emphasis on rational description.As a woman,Ushijima Haruko experienced many births during her life,including a stillbirth that suffered a pain.Woman is a novel created by Ushijima Haruko based on her own stillbirth experience.Under the painful blow of losing his daughter,the author’s state of mind has changed from "Manchurian national" to "Japanese national".In the book of Women,she affirmed the justification of Japan’s war.While cheering the victory of the Japanese War,she emphasized the role of women’s reproductive function in the war.Under the wartime system,Ushijima Haruko’s description of women’s images became more inflammatory.From female perspective,she portrayed the image of Japanese women as "military mothers",and encouraged Japanese women to play their reproductive functions as rear support for the Japanese war.Not only that,but from her own fertility rate,we can also see that the author himself has practiced and proactively reproduced,showing her determination and actions to contribute to the Japanese wartime system.Ushijima Haruko’s "achievement" was created by the "Manchuria".After the defeat of Japan,the "Manchuria" also ceased to exist.Ushijima Haruko also became a member of the fugitive from "Mrs.Officer".Because her husband was recruited into the army at that time,and her life and death were unclear,Ushijima Haruko can only take three young children on her journey back to Japan.During the one-year repatriation process,she took her children through many boarding lives and running away.During the difficult relocation process,she witnessed the misery and helplessness of the Japanese women in flight,and deeply felt the low status of women under the Japanese patriarchal system.After returning to Japan,Ushijima Haruko did not stop writing,but created many literary works based on her repatriation experience.In Sheng Zi,the author begins with the death of his friend Shengzi,and deeply describes the bond and connection between Shengzi and me.Through the detailed description of the unhappy marriage life in Shengzi,and the self-account that the misfortune of Shengzi is related to me for many times,it shows the author’s reflection and awakening to the description of female image.In A Journey,the author portrays the image of his friend Maozi as a Japanese model of "good wife and good mother".Through the transformation of the personality of Maozi’s girlhood before marriage and the oppression of unhappy marriage life after marriage,it highlights his inferiority and helplessness in the gap between husband and mother-in-law,and shows the low status of women under the patriarchal system in Japan.In contrast,in the novel,the author portrays the secular "performance of men’s clothing" and a bold "adventure" in the process of moving back to the country,trying to break the shackles of "Japanese women" through the act of "dressing up as a man",and reshape a new Japanese female image that yearns for freedom,bravely and decisively,dares to resist the shackles of the Japanese patriarchal system,and dares to grasp the initiative of women."Manchu Literature" lacks a realistic spirit.With the collapse of the "Manchuria",the "Manchuria literature" constructed by the Japanese colonists also disappeared.Now,people have long forgotten "Manchuria literature".But the comprehensive investigation and in-depth study of these "negative heritages" not only have the academic value of empirical research,but also have important practical significance for re-examining this history and educating the public.Therefore,this thesis focuses on the representative of Japanese female writers in the "Manchuria"-Ushijima Haruko,focusing on the changes in the description of female images in her literary creation,through the research and comparison of works at different stages in different periods,and exploring the change of female images in the author’s works in different background,the reasons for the change and the change of the author’s mental journey.
