民國知識女性的另一種樣本                                                    劉雁提起民国知识女性,我们脑海中會涌现出一長串令我們欽佩的名字:林徽因,張愛玲,趙萝蕤,陳衡哲,丁玲,冰心......她們不僅才華出衆,在各自的領域成就傲人,個人生活方面,她們也大多抛開傳統,而選擇聽從自己的内心,成爲中華數千年歷史中追求個性解放與婚姻解放的第一、二代女性。邱彰筆下的王詳明和她的母親,則爲我們提供了民國知識女性的另一種樣本。王詳明出生于上海富裕的企業家家庭,從小就是父親的掌上明珠,受盡嬌寵。從聞名遐邇的教會學校中西女校畢業后,她進入美國哥倫比亞大學,拿到圖書舘學碩士學位,在國會圖書館做到管理三百余人的處長,也是一位學識、能力不輸他人的女子。然而,她的個人生活卻令人氣結:她的婚姻是'父母之命'。接受邱璋采訪時,    嵗的她直言不諱地說,她從來沒愛過她的丈夫,只是因爲不願讓父母不快,她接受了這門親事。不僅如此,婚姻中的她,對丈夫以'老爺'相稱,以'照顧老爺'為己任,'老爺'的話就是聖旨,心中再不樂意也要立即執行。她不僅承擔一般家務,甚至還要做修剪草坪、鏟雪這些按當時的理念應該是男人的工作,乃至引起鄰居抗議。而她'老爺'的回應,則更令人瞠目:下次你做這些事情的時候,我先提前出去,免得讓他們說閑話......不得不承認,讀到這些令我心中非常難受。王詳明對婚姻的不滿毫不隱瞞,但她從來沒有嘗試過改變--至少她沒有説出來。我們也沒法用'怒其不爭'來評論她,因爲她所作的更像是自覺自願的選擇。儘管她接受過完整的西式現代教育,長時期生活在美國,她的底色還是傳統中國陳腐的'三從四德',而且她已然將其内化為行爲準則,似乎她的世界裏,這是唯一的婚姻生活方式。能找到的唯一理由,就是她母親的影響。她母親的經歷更令人扼腕:知書識禮、當過小學教員的她,嫁到夫家后,被婆婆將筆墨紙硯燒掉,每日被迫充當僕佣照顧家人起居,吃飯不能上桌,甚至生下的第一個孩子因爲是女孩,被婆婆活活打死。這一切她都逆來順受,沒有半點反抗。王詳明很愛她的母親,為母親鳴不平,但母親的逆來順受,給她的影響應該是巨大的。王詳明的一生,爲我們提供了民國知識女性的另一種樣板。不知道這樣的女性有多少,或許更多有相同經歷的人選擇了沉默。要感謝王詳明的直言不諱,和邱彰救火式的記錄,才讓我們看到這樣的人生。或許中國與西方、傳統與現代的夾擊,令她在個人生活上選擇了更爲熟悉也更爲安全的傳統中國,儘管職場上的她與所在環境已完美融合。她的一生,能給今天的華裔美國女性帶來什么樣的啓示呢?
