《 去十九号房 》中女性主体性的多维度构建

The Multidimensional Construction of the Feminine Subjectivity in To Room Nineteen

《去十九号房》是诺贝尔文学奖获得者、英国女作家多丽丝·莱辛创作前期的一部重要作品。评论界对女主人公苏珊离家出走和最终死亡的解读大多归于其对现实的消极逃避。借助多维度的文本细读可以发现,小说对苏珊的女性书写并非是被动和消极的,而是通过母题、心理、空间和话语等多个维度积极能动地构建了其主体性,从而摆脱了对其出走和死亡的消极阐释;小说文本违越男性话语和男权秩序的悖论式主体构建为透视女性生存的隐晦书写开启了一扇窗口。

To Room Nineteen is an important early work of Doris Lessing,a Nobel Prize winner and a British woman writer.Most of the critics attributed the heroine Susan’s running away from home and her final death to the negative escape from reality.With the multi-dimensional close reading of the text,it can be found that the feminine writing of Susan is neither passive nor negative;but the multi-dimensions of motif,psychology,space and discourse construct the feminine subjectivity actively and positively,which breaks away from the negative interpretation of the running away and her final death.The paradoxical subjectivity construction which violates the male discourse and patriarchal order opens a window for seeing through the obscure writing of the women’s survival.
