毕业设计论文-论《喜福会》女性主义的显现.doc

摘 要 随着女性主义文学的不断发展，研究观点层出不穷。我们在文学批判的领域里可以发现，有关文学作品中女性主义的研究已成为了女权倡议者关注的焦点。而《喜福会》正是这方面的代表作之一。本文基于谭恩美这部小说，尝试分析母女两代人的奋斗历程和相互的影响,从而体现女性主义的内涵。 无论是母亲还是女儿，经历了作为传统女性的社会角色所带来的痛苦后，她们以各自的方式找到了自我，不能消极等待，而是要打破传统，寻找自我的命运出路。作为华裔美国女性，首先，她们是欧美世界中的中国人；其次，她们是东方男性世界中的女性；再次，她们还是西方世界中的中国女性。深受三重身份压迫之苦的女性争得发言权，描述中美文化差异所造成的母女之间迥异的奋斗之路。 关键字：《喜福会》；母女；命运论；女性觉醒；奋斗 Table of Contents Abstract i 摘 要 ii 1.

Her parents, both are Chinese immigrants, eventually settling in Santa Clara. When Tan was in her early teens, her father and one of her brothers died of a brain tumor within months of each other. During this period, Tan learned that her mother had been married before in China. Tans mother had divorced her first husband, who had been abusive, and had fled China in 1949. She left behind three daughters, whom she would not see again for nearly forty years. After losing her husband and son, Tans mother moved her family to Switzerland, where Tan finished high school.
