From Singing to Confession: An Expression of Discourse on 1980s’ Female Poetry
Abstract
There is a certain relationship between the boom of female poetry in 1980s and the establishment of female confessional discourse model which differs from the male. The need to excavate subconscious areas enables poetess from singing and chanting in the past to the confession in the 1980s. They advocated “My Hand, My Heart” and gave an expression of the form of series of poems and the leaping structure. They described women’s unique individual life experience. In their poems, confessional discourse does not mean monologue show. In fact, there exist the latent dialogue and the communicated perspective.
