摘要
《榆树下的欲望》中的爱碧曾被作为捍卫爱情的勇士而进入人类文学史的光荣榜,然而在剧中她从"妖妇"到"天使"的转变,并不是剧情发展的水到渠成,而是剧作家奥尼尔试图维护两性关系中男强女弱模式的一种努力,在文本背后隐藏的是对男权被颠覆的焦虑。女性主义批评通过对文本的重新阅读和阐释,以新的视角,在文本中找寻男权意识对女性在精神上的控制。当爱碧进入这样一种文学批评视野,发现虽然最开始她是一个男权话语樊篱的突围者,但她不过是一个不自觉的女性解放者,最终又一头栽回男权话语体系的怀抱,通过杀婴,成就了一曲"伟大"的爱情绝唱。这变异的母性,实质是男权社会的作茧自缚。
In Desire Under the Elms, Abbie can stand on the honor list of human literary history for defending her love. However, her shift from Delilah to Angel does not follow the plots naturally, but represents an attempt by which O＇neill tried to maintain a gender relationship that man was prior to woman. The author＇s latent tone was the anxiety about the overthrow of male authority. Through re-explaining and reading the text, feminism criticism found the spiritual control of male consciousness over women from a new perspective. When seizing the literary critique horizon, Abbie came to change from male power resister at the very beginning to an unconscious female emancipator, but finally returned to the world of male authority and fulfilled her ＂great＂ love tragedy by killing her baby. The aberrant maternity essentially embodied a kind of retribution of patriarchal society.
