摘 要
   
《愤怒的葡萄》是20世纪最有影响力的美国作家约翰•斯坦贝克的代表作，发表于一九三九年，描写美国三十年代经济恐慌期间大批农民破产、逃荒的故事，反映了惊心动魄的社会斗争的图景。《愤怒的葡萄》给读者描绘了一幅沙尘暴肆虐，庄稼歉收，土地贫瘠的景象。由于人类愚蠢的行为，大自然的生态平衡受到了严重的破坏。作者斯坦贝克就是在暗示人类的贪婪掠夺，对自然的蔑视和无情，是生态灾难的始作俑者。本论文将从生态女性主义角度解读《愤怒的葡萄》，分别从自然和社会生活角度阐述小说中体现的生态女性主义思想，并具体分析小说中两个女性角色——乔德妈和罗莎夏，揭示自然与女性的内在联系。随着社会的科技进步，经济发展，人们的生存环境越来越差，自然灾害愈发频繁，从生态女性主义角度重新解读《愤怒的葡萄》具有深刻意义，不仅为《愤怒的葡萄》的研究提供新的阐释视角，也指出人与自然、人与人之间相互关联、休戚与共的关系，警示人们保护环境并倡导人们建立和谐社会。

ABSTRACT

John Ernest Steinbeck, one of the most influential American writers in 20th century, is well-known for his masterpiece The Grapes of Wrath (1939). The novel tells the stories that farmers in the central states in America migrate to California and search for a way out after bankruptcy during the Great Depression in 1930s, and portrays a scene of dust storms raging, failure of crops and barren land. Due to the human folly, of mankind, the ecological balance is seriously damaged. Steinbeck implies that humans’ greed plunders and ruthless contempt for nature are the initiator of ecological disasters.
This paper interprets The Grapes of Wrath from the perspective of ecofeminism, elaborates the ecofeminist thoughts from the aspects of natural and social life in The Grapes of Wrath, and specifically analyzes the two representative characters of ecofeminism in the novel, revealing the internal connections between nature and women. With the advancement of technology and development of economy, people’s living environment is getting worse and worse. Natural disasters happen increasingly frequently. To analyze The Grapes of Wrath from the perspective of ecofeminism has profound meanings. It can not only provide a new angle to interpret The Grapes of Wrath, but also points out that the relationships between man and nature as well as man and man are correlated and bond together. It can warn people to protect the environment immediately and advocate for reconstruction of a harmonious and sustainable world.
