本文把《史记.外戚世家》中描写的女子归为两类,一类努力追求掌握自己的命运,但最后归于失败,另一类随遇而安,但最后取得了意想不到的地位。不管是努力追求,还是无奈地听天由命,一个共同的悲剧在于她们对于自己命运无力掌控。她们命运的结局不是宿命,而是各种政治力量斗争的结果。 This article classifies the women described in “Records of the Historian and the Fathers of the West” as two categories, one that seeks to grasp their own destiny, but which ultimately falls into failure and the other falls in the opposite direction. But in the end it has achieved an unexpected status. Whether it is the pursuit of hard work, or reluctantly listen to their own destiny, one common tragedy lies in their inability to control their own destiny. Their fate is not the outcome of the fate, but the result of various political forces struggle.
