抄録
At the beginning of the 20th century, the mass media made tremendous progress in modern Japan. Women’s magazines took an important part in the organizing process of modern gender ideology and system. This paper takes serial story in commercial women’s magazine as an object of study and analyzes the contents of popular novels for women. The 28 novels by three popular writers; Kikuchi Kan, Yoshiya Nobuko, Kato Takeo were picked up and analysed. The results of analysis are as folloes; 1) there is the common basic structure of story, 2) gender ideology is formed through stiring up some desires (desire for women’ own virginity and innocence, desire for faith and innocence of lovers or husbands, desire for romantic love, desire for happy marriage) in the world of novels. It is argued that popular novels reflect the public needs of women readers and create the new or reorganized ones by the power of fantasy. The fantasy that those nevels produce was constcucted arround the worth of romantic love and modern family.
