本文剖析了中国二十世纪不同时期翻译文学中女性形象身份的构建,呈现主流意识形态对其产生的决定性作用,发掘她们所产生的社会功能与文学影响.文章认为,这些女性形象在中国翻译文学中成为代表性人物形象的主要原因,或是她们恰好地支持了当时中国社会的主流意识形态,或是她们被主流意识形态树立为典型形象.同时,代表性女性形象不仅塑造了中国读者的意识形态,发挥了显著的社会功能,而且对中国文学颇有改良作用.“,”This article demonstrates the decisive role that mainstream ideologies have played in constructing the identities of the representative women's images in Chinese translated literature via the selection of source texts in different periods of the 20th century, and unearths the social functions and literary influences of these figures. It is argued that the major reason why some women's images in Chinese translated literature became representative characters of their times lies in that either they supported mainstream ideologies of the then Chinese society owing to the particular qualities embodied by them or they were held up as exemplary models by mainstream ideologies for people to follow. The representative women's images in turn not only produced a significant social impact by shaping Chinese readers' ideologies but also reformed the poetics of Chinese literature.
