摘　　要：家庭关系是近代江南烈女现象依旧存在的重要原因。无论婚配与否,女性能通过某些特定的方式与丈夫产生深厚的感情,她们为救治丈夫不惜牺牲自己,丈夫的去世对她们的打击极为沉重,为了追随丈夫于地下,她们选择殉夫;某些亲属单薄且无子嗣的女子在丈夫去世后失去了生活的依靠和希望,殉夫便成了她们无奈的选择。然而,更多的女性是被逼迫而死,娘家或夫家令其改嫁违背了其"不适二夫"的志向;家庭成员的凌辱让其饱受失节的威胁和心灵的伤害,自杀反而成了她们守护贞节的武器和最后的解脱。Family relationship is still an important cause for the emergence of Jiangnan paragons of chastity.Whether married or unmarried,women had profound emotion with their husbands in certain ways.They could sacrifice themselves to save their husbands,and the death of their husbands was a heavy blow to them.They killed themselves to follow their husbands in the nether world.Some women from poor family with no children could not but die with their husbands after the death of their husband because they lost all their hope for a living.However,more women were forced to die,because their maternal family or husbandry family forced them to remarry,which violated their wish of “one husband only”and the insult from other family members hurt them,so suicide became a good way to protect their chastity.
