“属下”的形象演变——斯皮瓦克帝国主义批判理论下的女性文本解读

The Evolution of the Images of the “subaltern”——Interpretation of Feminist Texts under Spivak's Critical Theory of Imperialism

以斯皮瓦克帝国主义批判理论为启发与依据,探究三个女性文本中"属下"形象的演变,即从《弗兰肯斯坦》中受偏爱的无名属下科学怪物,到《藻海无边》中物化的属下安托瓦内特,再到《简·爱》中隐匿的属下伯莎·梅森,三个不同语境下的"属下"无一例外遭受了帝国主义叙事的抑制。通过剖析"属下"形象的演变,揭示文本所透露出来的帝国主义意识形态。

In light of Spivak5 s critique of imperialism, this article focuses on the evolution of the subaltern ima-ges in these three texts： the preferred subaltern beast in Frankenstein, the objectified subaltern Antoinette in Wide Sargasso Sea and the hidden subaltern Bertha Mason in Jane Eyre. These three subaltern characters in different contexts are all restrained under the imperialist narrative. The analysis about the evolution of the subaltern ima-ges can reveal the imperialist ideology.
