周瘦鵑是民初文壇的重要作家，卻也一直是未被文學研究者全面觀照的作家。其受關注之處，大抵不脫與《禮拜六》、《紫羅蘭》等文學期刊的關係，或是翻譯小說之相關議題，抑或是被納編於「鴛鴦蝴蝶派」作家群的討論，導致其原創小說始終未受到應有的、全面的重視。因此，本文嘗試將研究視角集中於周氏發表於《禮拜六》期刊上的原創小說，期望透過深度詮解以探析其創作內涵。是以，本文將以「女性形象」為闡述視角，探尋周氏筆下「紅顏薄命的才德女性」、「企圖擺脫現實困頓的忠貞女性」與「義無反顧的自主女性」人物，分析其人物形象並探索其遭遇處境，以反映處境背後的文學意義，藉以掌握周瘦鵑小說創作的變化與關懷之情。結論得出周氏筆下的女性人物，從工筆典約的自怨自艾到深思明辨自己所處的困境，再到勇於突破傳統束縛、自主出走的形象變化，不僅說明周氏對於擺盪於中／西、傳統／現代思維進程中的女性處境觀察與思索，同時更透過不同形象之描摹鏤刻，表達其對女性處境與社會風潮改變之掌握與關切，凸顯周氏小說的文學價值。
