论谭恩美作品中的女性主义特征——以小说《喜福会》为例

On Feminism in Amy Tan's Works——A Case Study of The Joy Luck Club

谭恩美作为美国文坛一名女性少数族裔作家,在性别和种族上都处于边缘性的境地。作为女性,在男权话语为主的文坛,她是一个"他者";作为少数族裔作家,对美国主流文化而言,她也是一个"他者"。但是这种复杂的双重身份却赋予她的作品一种鲜明而独特的女性主义特征。文章重点以谭恩美的《喜福会》为文本,通过女性主义的视角,来解析其作品中所表现出的女性主义特征。

Amy Tan is a minority writer who is located in the verge of sex and race in American literature world. As a woman, she is a ＂the other＂ in the male-dominated literary circle; as a minority writer, she is a ＂the other＂ as well to the American dominant culture. However, the dual personality characterizes her works by feminism. This thesis analyzes one of Amy Tan＇s main works, The Joy Luck Club, to interpret the feminism reflected in it.
