Abstract

With elements of romance and entertainment, Chinese female-oriented online literature has a considerable readership and has attracted substantial social attention in recent years through film and television adaptations. Taking female-oriented original online literature as the study object, this paper analyses the gender reconstruction and the influence of the internet and commercialization therein. Foucault's theory of power is cited and the analysis is multidimensional and incorporates a specific social context. This paper finds that the awakening of female consciousness is accompanied by a gradual dismantling of gender stereotypes, but that the internet and commercialization hinders gender reconfiguration and placed female subjectivity in imperceptible danger.
