摘要
《拥有快乐的秘密》是世界文学史中揭露非洲女性割礼问题的经典作品之一。沃克对割礼陋习的描写揭开了非洲大陆割礼文化的冰山一角,表明给非洲女性带来伤害和折磨的传统习俗就是侵犯人权、应当被摒弃的文化糟粕。本文采用罗宾·斯特恩关于“煤气灯效应”的基本理论,从“煤气灯效应”的文化操纵与社会化精神控制、“煤气灯效应”的内化与个体性精神控制和“煤气灯效应”的基本焦虑与反精神控制3个方面来探究“煤气灯效应”与精神控制的内在关联,展现传统文化的陋习之恶对非洲女性身心健康的巨大伤害,揭露割礼制度的反文明性和反人类性。
In the history of world literature,Posssing the Secret of Joy is one of the classical works which reveals the problem of African women's circumcision.Alice Walker's depiction of the practice of circumcision has uncovered the tip of the iceberg of circumcision culture on the African continent,indicating that the traditional customs that cause harm and torture to African women are cultural dross that greatly violates their human rights and should be discarded.The basic theory of"gaslight effect"proposed by Robin Stein is adopted in this paper to study the internal correlation between"gaslight effect"and mind control from the relations between cultural manipulation of"gaslight effect"and socialized mind control,between the internalization of"gaslight effect"and individual mind control,and between the basic anxiety of"gaslight effect"and anti-mind control,bringing to light the great harm of traditional cultural evils done to African women and disclosing circumcision system's anti-civilization and anti-humanity.
