现实囚笼中的精神自由——从《纯真年代》的人物塑造看伊迪丝·华顿的女性意识

The Spiritual Freedom in the Cage of Actuality——Searches on Edith Wharton's Female Consciousness by the Images in The Age of Innocence

女性意识在《纯真年代》中的三个主要人物形塑过程中起着重要作用,将伊迪丝.华顿在当时社会条件下的女性梦想最大程度地张显出来。而华顿的启示是:男权社会有一定的规则,女性如果超越这一规则,就有可能在精神领域实现一部分的梦想。

By analyzing how the female consciousness works on the image - building of the three protagonists of The Age of Innocence, the text is to illuminate how Edith Wharton actualized female dreams at the furthest degree in the social conditions of that age. The apocalypse of Wharton is that there are certain rules in the society of men. But if the female can go beyond the rules, they can partly realize their dreams.
