摘要
流动性是现代性的重要标志,但现代性研究常常以男性流动性体验作为中心,而忽略了女性与流动性、现代性的关系。文章以美国现代化进程中流动性加速时期的美国女性文学为研究对象,以女性的流动性体验作为考察现代性的窗口,认为,美国女性文学中的女性流动性叙事反映了现代性的性别差异,消解了以男性为中心的现代性范式,为美国现代性书写提供了独特的视角,展现了现代性的多元与复杂,参与了现代性的话语建构。
Mobility is the hallmark of modernity. However, studies of modemity are often centered on men's mobility, overlooking women's engagement with and experience of forms of mobility as depicted by American women novelists during the period when mobility was increased by modem transportation and urbanization. This paper examines women's experience with mobility so as to identify different experiences women and men have with modernity and challenge male centered perspective of modernity. American women writers sought to present multiple and polycentric modernities and participated in a dialogue about the nature of modernity. This paper hopes to trace the complexities of women's location in modernity and to contribute to the scholarly engagement with the gendering of modernity in this period.
