安吉拉·卡特超童话故事中的性别解构

Gender Deconstruction in Angela Carter's Meta-Fairy Tales

由于安洁拉·卡特在其作品中有意识地、积极地探讨关于性与性别的议题,她对传统童话故事的重新演绎一直以来吸引了众多文学批评家的关注。文章分析了短篇故事集《血室》中卡特是如何解构性别规范的,并选取该故事集中的三篇故事——《里昂先生的求婚》、《血室》以及《老虎的新娘》作为文本分析。在此基础上,文章借鉴了雅克·拉康和朱迪思·巴特勒的理论,探讨卡特是怎样揭示并解构了传统童话故事里暗含的性别规范。

Angela Carter＇ s rewriting of fairy tales has caught the attention of many literary critics, for she has actively and consciously probed into the issue of gender and sexuality in her works. This paper mainly discusses how she deconstructs gender norms in her short story collection The Bloody Chamber in which the authoress focuses on three short stories, including The Courtship of Mr. Lyon, The Bloody Chamber, and The Tiger＇s Bride. Drawing on the theories of Jacques Lacan and Judith Butler, this paper attempts to explore how Carter has revealed the gen-der norms in traditional fairy tales and how she has deconstructed them in her works.
