ABSTRACT

Is Florence Nightingale becoming unfashionable? The UK’s largest union UNISON voted to drop the use of Nightingale’s image for their union as she was considered to be unrepresentative of modern nursing. One of those backing the motion is on record as saying, ‘All over Eastern Europe, statues of Lenin are being taken off their pedestals, dismantled and pulled off to be cut up.… It is in the same vein that we must enter the new Millennium, start to exorcise the myth of Florence Nightingale’. This paper will discuss modern attitudes to Nightingale in terms of her feminism (not a term she used of herself) and survey scholarly articles that address Nightingale in relation to the position of women. It ends with reflections on the iconography of notable women.

弗洛伦斯·南丁格尔 (Florence Nightingale) (1820–1910) – 历史对她的女权主义有何看法?

摘要

弗洛伦斯·南丁格尔会变得过时吗?英国最大的工会 UNISON 投票决定放弃在工会中使用南丁格尔的形象,因为她被认为不能代表现代护理。一位支持该议案的人公开表示,“在整个东欧,列宁的雕像正在从基座上取下,被拆除并被拉下以进行切割......我们必须进入新的千年,开始驱除弗洛伦斯·南丁格尔的神话”。本文将讨论现代对南丁格尔女权主义的态度(不是她对自己使用的术语),并调查讨论南丁格尔与女性地位相关的学术文章。它以对著名女性肖像的反思结束。
