摘要

体制下属弱势群体。在男女婚姻关系中，女性之婚嫁全由尊长所定，为妾者更似个人财物，随时可弃或转赠予人。＂婚外关系＂、＂以淫杀夫＂也频频被刻画于唐人笔记小说中。唐人笔下对渴望爱情的女性表现出一定程度的谅解与同情，然而其最终结果，仍旧无法逃脱儒家观念支配下的社会伦理道德与明文宪法的制裁。

The laws and regulations of the Tang dynasty did little to safeguard women's rights, and married women were often vulnerable and powerless. In a marriage of that period, the decision about whom women should marry was in the hands of their elders, and those who became concubines were seen as personal belongings that could be discarded or gifted to others. "Extramarital relations" and "killing of one's husband after being found of adultery" were pervasively depicted in the novels of Tang dynasty. While the writers of that era showed a certain degree of empathy and sympathy toward the women who longed for affection, the ending of female characters were constrained by the societal values and legislation of that period which stemmed from Confucian values.
