Abstract
This paper focuses on the forms of love and women’s characters in selected writings of Vietnamese romantic literature, especially in the works of Hoàng Ngọc Phách (Tố Tâm “Purity of Hearth”) and Khái Hưng (e.g. Nửa chừng xuân “In the Middle of Spring”). In the first part we will introduce main changes in the Vietnamese literary movements at the beginning of the twentieth century. In the second part we will describe traditional norms of the Chinese cultural world, especially the social status of women in the Confucian culture and literature, Buddhism, and in selected philosophical schools. In the third part the setting of these norms are compared to the different background of Vietnamese literature more penetrated by the influence of ancient matriarchal patterns and only partial accommodation of Chinese values. In the fourth part, we focus on the interaction and contacts of modern French culture in Vietnam and understanding of the Western values by Vietnamese intellectuals. In the main fifth part we describe similarities and differences in the depiction of the active forms of love of women in the literature of Vietnamese romantism in the contexts of Asian traditional culture and European romantic literature. The analysis of Vietnamese authors and selected citations show strong interaction of traditional Asian cultural norms with influences of women’s literary characters of European romantism. Especially mentioned are the distinct forms of Vietnamese narratives and expressions further connected to contemporary life and better social status of women in Vietnam. This change also corresponds to contemporary global Vietnamese aspirations as well as growing audience of Vietnamese literature and fast development of Vietnamese society.
