从生存主义视角解读《飘》中女性意识的觉醒_英语论文

An Analysis of the Awakening of Feminine Consciousness in Gone with the Wind from the Perspective of Existentialism 

摘要

生存主义或者说存在主义假设与自然斗争的我们是最好的。人类虽然知道完美是不可能实现的，但是为了自己的发展人类充满斗志。而人类要想生存下去就必须打破规则。 存在主义就是与已有的规律的斗争，是向上帝宣战，要做自己的英雄拯救自己，而不是求体制、社会和神的支持。这个理论格外的适合乱世。在《飘》中描写了斯佳丽与媚兰尼两位性格截然不同的女主人公，而不同的性格使她们的人生也大相径庭。但是殊途同归的是，出于对生存的渴望，她们表现出了关于爱情、责任、生存、恐惧的各种情感，这些情感带来了女性意识的觉醒。斯佳丽果断、坚决的性格决定了她奋进的一生，媚兰尼的宽容、坚韧同样注定了她终生的勤苦。小说的名字是飘，也就是说南方原有的制度随风而逝，也可以理解为女性原有的懦弱、胆怯、爱慕虚荣等依赖性的性格随风飘散。本文分析了小说中这两位主要女性人物，揭示了在当时社会中女性意识的觉醒。
