摘要
社会规训对于女性有着双重的规范:首先是作为“社会人”的规范,其次是作为“女性”的规范。从莱辛的第一部小说《野草在唱歌》中的玛丽到其代表作《金色笔记》中的安娜,女主人翁在追求自我价值实现的过程中无不受到社会规范的规训。莱辛以小说为镜,揭示她所处时代的女性独立与自由的艰辛。她认为保持思想独立对于女性主体性的维持有着重要意义。玛丽因受社会规范的驯化而丧失自我;安娜因坚持思想自由与精神解放而在自由之路上破茧重生。
The social discipline imposes on women two different norms:the social norm and gender norm.From Mary in Doris Lessing's The Grass Is Singing to Anna in her masterpiece The Golden Notebook,the heroines have to face those visible and invisible social barriers in the pursuit of their self-fulfillment.The social discipline has forged for women the mode of their fate.Lessing emphasizes the importance of freedom of thinking without which women seem most likely to lose or diminish their gender identity.Mary lost herself under the domestication of social norms while Anna accomplished her salvation for her firm belief in freedom of thinking and liberation of spirit for women.
