摘要
从女性主义的视角解读乔治·爱略特的代表作,并结合她的生平,分析她矛盾的女性观。乔治·爱略特一方面打破了女性在男权社会中的失语状态,唤醒了千百年来沉睡的女性意识,支持女性争取受教育和工作的权利;另一方面她又不主张男女地位的绝对平等,而强调女性在婚姻中作出自我牺牲来成就男性的抱负,将女性定义为男性的辅助。她这种矛盾的女性观是时代和传统社会的产物,既反映了她要求男女携手,共创协调发展的人类社会的美好愿望,又反映出她处于女权边缘的尴尬与无奈。
This paper tends to interpret George Eliot's works in combination with her biography from the feminist perspective, and analyze her contradictory views on women's role. On the one hand, George Eliot breaks the silence of the female in the male-dominating society and awakens the feminist consciousness which, for long, has supported women in winning the rights for receiving education and entering job market. On the other hand, she emphasizes women's self-sacrifice in marriage to fulfill men's ambition instead of the absolute equality between men and women. She defines women as men's assistants. The dichotomies in George Eliot's attitudes on women are the product of her times and the traditional English society, which reflects both her hope that men and women might jointly construct a happy human society and her embarrassment and helplessness as a wanderer on the edge of feminism.
