摘要

女性主义发展到今天，主要经过三次高潮阶段，其在不同程度上影响和推动了世界各国对女性主义的研究。女性主义因其发展性与其影响的广泛性和持久性一直备受国内外专家学者的关注，并且针对其不同的发展阶段运用不同的研究方法得出了多方面的结论。通过对相关文献的搜集和考察，发现当今国内外学者对女性主义的研究多在分析文本著作方面，而对影视剧中女性主义的研究尚不多见。而我国对女性主义的研究始于20世纪，主要受到西方女性主义思潮的影响，现阶段主要是对女性意识解放以及两性平等的研究。

本研究拟以合作原则及会话含义为理论框架，借鉴前人对于女性主义的研究，通过对《致命女人》中有效对话语料的分析，研究在不同情境下人物违反合作原则的情况，来探究不同人物反映出的女性意识和对女性权利的追求，希望人们能够对女性主义有更加深入、系统且正确的认识和理解，在一定程度上促进两性平等观念的更进一步发展。
