论《幸存者回忆录》中对二元对立的两性关系的解构

An Analysis of the Deconstruction of Binary Gender Relations in The Memoirs of a Survivor

《幸存者回忆录》是英国著名女性作家多丽丝·莱辛的代表作之一。小说以一座文明处于崩溃边缘的未来英国城市为背景,从“墙外”和“墙内”两个世界书写主人公艾米丽的蜕变故事。小说再现了传统二元对立思维下男性与女性的扭曲关系,揭示了女性所遭遇的身份困境。文章综合运用解构主义思想试图指出,莱辛通过描写艾米丽和杰拉尔德关系的转变展现了传统父权制下女性所受的压迫,巧妙地解构了男性与女性二元对立的思想,并暗示相互扶持之路才能创建多元共生的和谐社会。The Memoirs of a Survivor is one of the masterpieces created by the famous British female writer Doris Lessing. Set in a future British city where civilization is on the verge of collapse, the novel focuses on the story of the transformation of Emily, the main character, from two worlds: the world outside the wall and the one inside the wall. The novel reproduces the distorted relationship between men and women under the traditional dichotomy and reveals the identity dilemma encountered by women. This paper synthesizes the ideas of deconstructionism and tries to point out that by depicting the transformation of Emily and Gerald’s relationship, Lessing shows the oppression of women under the traditional patriarchal system, skillfully deconstructs the idea of male-female dichotomy and implies that the path of mutual support is the only way to create a harmonious society of pluralism and coexistence.
