While the concept of"The uncanny"is characterized by both strangeness and doubleness, to comprehend the uncanniness of The Woman Warrior more deeply, it is necessary to perceive the pervasively entailed doubleness in the story. Through analyzing the recurring images of ghost and silence, which stand for the source of the strangeness, we try to perceive the doubleness in the text from the perspective of the author's Chinese-American identity. We conclude that Kinston fabricates the multilayered uncanniness in the story through the entangled multi-doublness and constructed identity struggle.展开更多

To illustrate this point, this paper thinks The Woman Warrior and Ballad of Eternal Sorrow are two significant texts： Ballad of Eternal Sorrow tells an ordinary, self-respecting, and life-respecting story of WANG Qi-yao and the girls like her as well as the city Shanghai. They blend into one harmonious whole： The city is like the girls and the girls match the city. Likewise, The Woman Warrior highlights the significance of naturc on the girl narrator＇s epiphany and healthy growth. The narrator comes to understand that paradoxes are the basic existent condition of human beings and so what she needs to do is to be magnanimous and balanceable in accepting these paradoxes.展开更多
