《死者》中加布里埃尔的伪善和反女性情感

Gabriel's hypocrisy and anti-female sentiment in The Dead

传统观点认为,《死者》中的主人公加布里埃尔作为中产阶级知识分子,既有绅士风度又思想开明。然而如果深入挖掘小说文本,我们会发现,乔伊斯的真实意图是欲暴露他的伪善面目和对女性的轻蔑,并将之归根于男性意识形态在当时爱尔兰社会的绝对支配性。

In traditional opinion, Gabriel, a dramatis persona in The Dead, not only behaves like a gentleman, but also is open - minded as a middle - class intellectual. However, after a further examination of the text, it will be found that Joyce＇ s real intention is in revealing Gabriel＇ s hypocritical nature and anti - female sentiment, and attributing it to the complete control of masculine ideology in contemporary Ireland.
