【摘要】：《女勇士》，是美国著名华裔女作家汤亭亭的开山之作，，一经问世就引起了美国文学界的巨大反响。它不仅为汤亭亭在美国文坛争得一席之地，同时也奠定了华裔文学在美国文坛蓬勃发展的基础。《女勇士》是一部籍华裔小女孩之口讲述四位女性的不同命运的小说，汤亭亭的这种讲故事的方式巧妙地将中国文化与美国文化、现实和虚幻融为一体。《女勇士》自出版就受到了批评界的青睐，相关研究专著、论文也如雨后春笋般涌现。其中也有对其叙事策略的研究探讨，但主要集中于形式主义叙事理论的指导之下，鲜少基于后经典叙事理论进行的相关研究。作为后经典叙事理论的主力军，修辞叙事理论着重聚焦于作者如何通过文本作用于读者，而读者又是如何通过文本与作者产生共鸣。作为一项相对年轻的理论，修辞叙事理论尚未被系统地应用于《女勇士》的解读之中。因此，本文从修辞叙事理论出发，探讨作者向读者传达知识、情感、价值和信仰所采取的修辞叙事策略。本论文共分五章。第一章为引言部分。在简要介绍汤亭亭的生平及作品的同时阐述运用修辞叙事理论研究《女勇士》的意义，交代本论文的框架。第二章梳理了国内外对《女勇士》的研究，尤其是对修辞叙事策略的研究。第三章是本论文的理论阐释部分。本章先论述后经典叙事理论的发展过程及特点，然后着重论述修辞叙事理论，特别是费伦的修辞叙事理论，并说明用此理论探讨《女勇士》叙事策略的独特性。第四章为本论文的中心部分，重点分析在修辞叙事理论视角下《女勇士》采用的叙事策略，主要包括：叙事层次转换、不可靠叙事、双重聚焦、叙事时间、叙事声音，详细而全面地讨论其策略是如何辅助叙事顺利进行、展现文本主题，从而引起读者的反应，达到加深文本理解的目的。第五章则对全文进行归纳和总结，指出汤亭亭通过各种修辞叙事策略的运用，使读者深刻体会到其追求中西文化融合的思想意识。通过研究，本文发现：《女勇士》中内部层次、中间层次和外部层次之间的巧妙转换让读者领悟到华裔女性在东西方文化之间摇摆不定的思想意识状态。不可靠叙事充分调动了读者的积极性，让读者投入于寻找故事真相及探求作者真实想法的过程中。双重聚焦通过内外聚焦的交替使用凸显了作者想成为一名女勇士，以战胜性别歧视和种族歧视，寻求中西文化融合的愿望。而在叙述时间方面，通过时序、时距和频率的巧妙运用，强调了作者试图弥合东西方文化鸿沟的思想。叙事声音则表达了寻求中西文化融合不仅仅是作者个人的需求，同时也是华裔女性的群体诉求。简而言之，用修辞叙事理论来探讨《女勇士》的叙事策略，不仅解读了作者如何巧妙安排叙事策略以达到为读者提供新奇阅读的目的，同时有助于读者深入地挖掘其内在的意识状态，并为读者赏析其他文学作品提供了新的视野。
