A New Analysis of the Image of Catherine in "The Wuthering Heights"

凯瑟琳是一个双性同体的新形象,对瓦解父权社会的性别二元对立论有重要的作用。她不仅具有温柔、极富同情心和极易动感情等女性特征,而且具有积极主动、勇敢坚强等男性特征。女权主义和拉康的后精神分析理论,给我阐释了凯瑟琳双性同体特征失而复得的整个过程提供了一种理论参照。

Catherine Earnshaw is a new image of androgyny and plays an important role in deconstructing the binary antagonism in patriarchal society. Catherine, though possessing the feminine characteristics such as tenderness, sympathy and emotionality, displays the masculine features of aggressiveness, bravery and toughness. This paper, by amplifying feminism and Lacanian psychoanalysis to Catherine, this paper intends to shed light on how her androgyny is gradually lost and regained in the end and her constant pursuit of freedom, equality and independence in patriarchal society.
