凤凰涅槃——对西尔维娅·普拉斯诗歌中认同危机的解读

The Interpretation of Identity Crisis in the Poetry of Sylvia Plath

西尔维娅·普拉斯是继艾米莉·狄金森和伊丽莎白·毕肖普之后最重要的美国女诗人。她被称为美国"自白派"中最具才华的诗人。令人扼腕的是,她却在生命的盛年选择结束自己的生命。笔者借助德国心理学家埃里克森的"认同危机"理论,通过对西尔维娅后期的诗歌解读,揭示诗人解决身份危机的心理历程。

Sylvia Plath, with her marvelous talent for words, is renowned as the most dynamic and admired American female poet after Emily Dickinson and Elizabeth Bishop in the 20th century. She committed suicide at the age of 32 in London, at the prime of her life. Her own life is inseparable from her poems. The thesis endeavors to explore Plath’s late poetry writing experiments with identity and the search for an authentic voice among her inner chaos with the help of Erik Erikson’s “Identity Crisis” theory.
