In 1938, Pearl Buck won the Nobel Prize, ＂for her rich and truly epic descriptions of peasant life in China and for her biographical masterpieces＂（Liao, 1997：4 ）. At the same time, she is also an advocator of feminism in works and in deeds. She concerns women＇ s problems in China. In fact, she also intends to figure out the reasons why Chinese women have to suffer so many pains. In this thesis, the author attempts to analyze the typical female images in Pearl Buck＇ s works from the angle of feminism. Then, this thesis pays much attention to probing into the reasons which lead to the conslruction of Pearl Buck＇ s feminism consciousness in Pearl Buck＇ s whole life. The aim of this paper lies in having a better understanding of Pearl Buck and her works from the aspect of feminism. In a word, with the development of globalization, people have paid more attention to feminism. As far as I am concerned, under this background, it will be efficient to do some studies on Pearl Buck from the angle of feminism.展开更多

It’s well-known that Thomas Hardy also creates a classical female character (Tess) in his famous novel- Tess of the D’Urbervilles. It’s obvious that those two writers both present their own understanding of feminist consciousness in their works. Therefore, this paper tries to conduct a comparative analysis between these two books on the basis of feminism differences. First, this paper aims to find out feminism differences between those two books from the perspective of characterization of main characters. Then, this paper will analyze such differences and then point out reasons in order to explain these differences. Finally, this paper will draw some conclusion on this study and put forward some constructive suggestions for further study.展开更多
