自五四以来，疾病书写成为中国现代作家表达审美趣味和思想观念的 重要手段。而在现代消费主义和浪漫主义的影响下，对摩登女郎浪漫化的 疾病书写在 20 世纪中国文学中盛极一时。张爱玲的疾病书写则与这种流行 模式不同，通常呈现出一种“去浪漫化”的面貌。在她笔下，通常被视为 贵族气质符号的肺结核病变成了带给女性身体丑怪变形的噩梦，而通常隐 喻着都市诱惑与爱情激情的“疯病”则在张爱玲小说中反映着女性作为“零 畸者”的身份焦虑，身体的变形与身份的焦虑亦隐喻着女性内在的压抑和 曲折。张爱玲的反浪漫写作一方面基于她独特的“苍凉”趣味，另一方面 则与疾病本身的“不平等”属性相关。

Since the May Fourth Movement, illness depiction has been an essential means for Chinese writers to express their aesthetic preferences and philosophical perspectives. While the romanticization of illness was in vogue during the 20th century in Chinese literature influenced by Romanticism, Zhang Ailing’s approach to illness writing was unconventional and usually demonstrated a characteristic of “de-romanticizedness” portrayal. In Zhang Ailing’s works, pulmonary tuberculosis, previously associated with aristocratic temperament, was transformed into a nightmare causing physical deformity for women; Meanwhile, the “mad illness” reflected a female’s identity anxiety as the “Other” in the patriarchy system, with the deformity of both the body and identity signifying the internalized oppression and complexity of female experiences. Zhang Ailing’s de-romanticized writing style was based on her profound understanding of the realities of modern Chinese women’s lives. Her approach to illness writing was related to the social attributes of illness as a system that established a hierarchy of power relations. This thesis aims to explore how Zhang Ailing’s de-romanticized style helps to illuminate the realities of modern Chinese women’s lives and how her critique of societal hierarchies related to illness is reflected prominently in her representation of disease.
