卑贱、超越、回归:虹影自传体小说的女性存在符号学分析

Humbleness,Transcendence and Returning: A Semiotic Analysis of the Feminine Existence in Hong Ying's Autobiographical Novels

"卑贱""超越""回归"是虹影自传体小说中女性存在符号学所包含的内容。"卑贱"象征为秩序所压抑、禁忌的对象。如果说秩序代表的是男性的、理性的、充满逻辑的社会,那么卑贱则意味着女性的、欲望的和自然的生命存在。从《饥饿的女儿》到《好儿女花》,"我"走上了一条从"卑贱"到"超越"再到"回归"的路。"我"从"卑贱"中意识到自我的存在,为了反抗"卑贱","我"选择了逃离和写作作为超越的方式,朝着与"卑贱"相反的方向不断前进,从而跃向主体的生存。"我"成功地实现了从"私生女"到"作家"的身份转换,却是因为骨子里的传统女性思想,而难以在婚姻中找到归宿。

'Humbleness','transcendence'and 'returning'in the auto-biological novels by Hong Ying are of the semiotic meanings. 'Being humble'symbolizes that the objects are ruled by social order. If the social order is demonstrated by men,ration and logic,then 'humbleness'may refer to women,desire and nature. By writing the novel The Hungry Daughter and The Good Sons and Daughters,the narrator 'I'take a road going from 'humbleness'to 'transcendence'till 'returning'. In the end of the stories,'I'ends up with the identity transfer from an illegitimate daughter to a woman writer but is still difficult to find a home in the marriage because of her traditional thoughts.
