摘要
卡特认为吃象征了权力的编码形式,可以暴露出父权社会试图掩盖的权力机制以及无形中施加在女性身上的身体政治。吃是一种沉默的表达方式,它的主要意义不在于生物性,而在于其象征性:食物与吃已经成为权力斗争的场所。本文将透过食物与吃的多棱镜来审视卡特小说中性别与权力的运作机制,分早、中、后期三个阶段来分析其对吃与权力关系的不同认识及再现,从而揭示出卡特女性主义思想的转变与提升过程。
Angela Carter regards eating as a symbolic act that connotes patriarchal society's power mechanism and its body politics inflicted on women. As a silent means of expression, therefore, eating signifies mostly in its symbolic rather than biological nature, with foods and drinks functioning as sites of power struggle. The present study investigates the working mechanism of gender and power in Carter's novels through the prism of eating. By analyzing how carter represents eating in relation to power in the different stages of her writing career, this paper traces the transformation of her feminist thought.
