发布时间：2018-11-06 19:35
【摘要】：简·里斯是英国最著名的女性作家之一。她的大部分作品都写于二十世纪三十年代和六十年代之间。她所关注的是来自于边缘社会的妇女群体以及她们探寻身份的过程。由于她本人在西印度群岛和国外的特殊生活经历,里斯小说中的场景多设在巴黎或者伦敦,而且人物都具有西印度群岛的背景。她主要描述在男性社会中,女性被剥削及由此带来的低下的经济地位和男性强加给她们的角色,以此来唤醒女性作为社会中的一个群体的存在。《藻海无边》是里斯的一部代表作并被认为是《简爱》的前传。自从出版以来,《藻海无边》被广泛阅读并受到众多评论家的高度赞扬。它使《简爱》中沉默的伯莎发出声音并成为小说中生动形象的白色克里奥尔姑娘安托瓦内特。里斯在小说中所描述的独特的西印度群岛风光将读者深深吸引;而女主人公不寻常的人生经历及身份危机也令读者动容。本文借助后殖民主义来深入剖析女主人公产生身份危机的原因,探寻身份的过程及最后寻找到独特自我的成功经历。本论文共分四章。第一章介绍了作家里斯的人生经历及作品和后殖民主义理论。第二章分析了女主人公产生身份危机的三大原因:种族冲突,性别压迫和欧洲中心论所带来的歧视。第三章论述了女主人公探寻身份的过程:试图融入黑/白两个世界的失败,内心世界的摇摆,做回自我的成功。第四章为此论文的结论部分,包括本论文的主要发现,研究的局限及对进一步研究所提出的建议。
[Abstract]:Jane Reese is one of the most famous female writers in England. Most of her works were written between the 1930 s and 1960 s. She is concerned about groups of women from marginalized societies and their identity-seeking process. Because of her special life experience in the West Indies and abroad, Reese's novels are mostly in Paris or London, and the characters have the West Indies background. She describes mainly the exploitation of women in male societies and the resulting low economic status and the role men impose on them. In order to awaken the existence of women as a group in society, the boundless Sea of algae is one of Reese's masterpieces and is regarded as the prequel of Jane Eyre. Since its publication, the Sea of algae has been widely read and highly praised by many critics. It makes the silent Bertha in Jane Eyre sound and become the vivid white Creole girl Antoinette in the novel. The unique scenery of the West Indies described by Reese deeply attracts the readers, and the heroine's unusual life experience and identity crisis also make the reader moved. With the help of post-colonialism, this paper deeply analyzes the causes of the heroine's identity crisis, explores the process of identity and finally finds the successful experience of finding her unique self. This thesis is divided into four chapters. The first chapter introduces the writer Reese's life experience, his works and the theory of post-colonialism. The second chapter analyzes the three main causes of the heroine's identity crisis: ethnic conflict, gender oppression and discrimination brought about by Eurocentrism. Chapter three discusses the process of the heroine's seeking identity: the failure of trying to blend into the black / white world, the swing of the inner world, and the success of the self. The fourth chapter is the conclusion of this paper, including the main findings of this paper, the limitations of the study and suggestions for further research.
