孟瑤（本名揚宗珍，1919-2000）以小說知名於世。然而，孟瑤仍有其他值得注目的文學表現值得討論。尤其是孟瑤的「女性散文」（〈弱者，妳的名字是女人？〉與《給女孩子的信》)與「孟瑤三史」（《中國戲曲史》、《中國小說史》與《中國文學史》等三部史論／教科書）。這兩類文學表現的預期讀者都是學生與一般讀者，顯示孟瑤的自我認同是女作家，但顯然更偏向女教師／學者的形象；較諸其大量小說所建立的「小說家」身分，似有不同。是以，本論文擬透過這兩類文本，以理解是否可在其小說成就外，藉此以證成孟瑤另一面較偏向女教師／學者的形象，進而建構孟瑤「知識女性」的形象。首先論及「女性散文」系列，既為自己、也為廣大女性的生命發聲；文本的知性風格與「教育」讀者的意味頗為明確。其次論及「孟瑤三史」，既確立了孟瑤的學術自我的向度，但其通俗化的教科書形式，也有啟迪更廣大學子與一般讀者之意。最後綜論孟瑤由此兩大類文本所呈現的女性／學術自我的表述／認同，明顯地較偏向女教師／學者。由此並兼論一般現代文學史（論）的孟瑤多為「小說家」，似暗示她的自我認同較偏向文學／女作家一面，多數未見提及此兩類文本之偏向「教育」讀者的女教師／學者的形象。此外，孟瑤及其作品之被閱讀及研究，時至今日已然沒落的現實，似與其寫作意識較偏向女教師／學者的自我形象之認同有關。總言之，孟瑤在五十至七十年代文壇／作家與杏壇／教師（學者）雙棲的系譜中，是一位形象鮮明的知識女性。

Meng Yao (孟瑤, whose real name is Yang Zongzhen 揚宗珍, 1919-2000) is a well-known novelist. However, there are other literary performances worth discussing. Especially Meng Yao's "feminist prose" ("Frailty, your name is woman? "〈弱者，你的名字 是女人？〉and Letters to the girls《給女孩子的信》) and "Meng Yao's three historical works' (孟瑤三史)("History of Chinese Opera" (《中國戲曲史》), "History of Chinese Fiction" (《中國小說史》) and "History of Chinese Literature" (《中國文學史》). The intended readerships of these two categories are students and general readers, which means Meng Yao's self-identity is as a female writer. But her image is more like that of a female teacher or scholar, and it seems to be different compared to her identity of a productive novelist.Therefore, this thesis wants to use these two categories, to understand whether the novels justify Meng Yao's image of female teacher or / scholar, and then construct Meng Yao's knowledgeable image of a "female intellectual".First, the essay discusses that in Meng Yao's "feminist prose" series, she not only voices her own concerns, but also the concerns of numerous women. The intellectual style and the significance to educate the readers are quite clear in the text. Second, the essay deals with the meaning of " Meng Yao's three historical works"(孟瑤三史). The works established Meng Yao's dimension of an academic self, and it also inspired numerous students and general readers from the popularized textbooks. Finally, the essay concludes that through Meng Yao's female/ academic self-representation / identity in the text of two categories, clearly she's more oriented toward female teacher / scholar. In modern literature, Meng Yao's identity is mostly discussed as a novelist, it seems to imply her self-identity tends toward the literary / authoress side. Her image of female teacher / scholar in the two categories has merely been mentioned. In addition, the reality decreasing popularity of Meng Yao's works, seems to be associated with the fact that her writing tends to a female teacher / scholar self-image.To sum up, Meng Yao was a vivid female intellectual in the 1950's and 1970's in the female writers' literary and academic circles.
