《劝导》中父女“对话”阐释

The Interpretation of the Dialogue between Father and Daughter

对话不仅是人们思想交流的一种重要手段,而且也可以促使人们打破思想僵化、促进思维发展。米哈伊尔.巴赫金对此有深入研究,并将这一理念运用于文学创作。他认为真正的文学创作都体现出积极的对话精神,女性创作也不例外,奥斯丁的小说亦遵循此道。她的最后一部小说《劝导》展现了女主人公与父亲的直接对话,以及父亲不在场的情形下父女之间的虚拟对话,从而展示了奥斯丁对当时女性生存状态的反思以及她的女性觉醒意识。

Dialogue is not only a vital means of communication but also an impetus in breaking mental petrifaction and facilitating the development of thought. On the basis of his profound research, Mikhail Bakhtin applied this dialogue theory into the field of literary creation. He believes the spirit of dialogue embodied in literary creation including the feminist writings. The novel of Jane Austen follows this pattern. Her last novel Persuasion shows the direct dialogue between father and daughter and the indirect fictional dialogue between absent father and daughter. Thus, reveals Austen＇ s contemplation on the existence condition of woman in that time and her awareness of female consciousness.
