《我的天才女友》的女性主义解读

A Feminist Interpretation of My Brilliant Friend

从女性主义的马克思主义视角切入,研究意大利匿名作家埃莱娜·费兰特的长篇小说《我的天才女友》,认为小说展现了"我"与莉拉成长道路上既相互扶持,又彼此较量的"姐妹情谊",小说通过两位母亲的"隐喻",彰显了教育作为女性精神启蒙的重要地位。在小说中那个私有制尚存、社会化生产仍由男性主导的社会环境中,女性通过依赖或模仿男性获得财富,争取经济独立,她们妥协性的反抗背后是辛酸和无力感。

From the marxist perspective of feminism, this paper analyzes the novel My Brilliant Friend written by the anonymous Italian writer Elena Ferrante. It argues that the novel presents the “sisterhood”of mutual support and competition formed between “I” and “Lila” on the way of growth and highlights the important role of education as a female spiritual enlightenment through the “metaphors” of the two mothers. In the social environment where private ownership still existed and socialized production was still dominated by men in the novel, women gained wealth and strived for economic independence by relying on or imitating men. Behind their compromise resistance was bitterness and powerlessness.
