罗伯特·洛威尔开创了直白诗的先河，但真正将其推向高潮的，是20世纪美国著名女诗人---西尔维亚·普拉斯。西尔维亚·普拉斯被誉为美国战后最有影响力的女诗人之一。这位英年早逝的伟大诗人因其富于激情和创造力的重要诗篇留名于世，又因与英国桂冠诗人休斯情感变故自杀的戏剧化人生而成为文学史上一个长久的话题。本文将以普拉斯的名篇《爸爸》为例，通过分析诗歌的内容探究诗中所体现的恋父情结和女权主义色彩，并通过梳理两者的关系，探讨普拉斯短暂的一生中亲情与爱情的自我体验对她人格及精神带来的影响。

1. Introduction
During the ten years after the World War II, European poetry became extraordinary spark. The young generation was called “the silenced generation”, and they would break out sooner or later. In 1959, United States’ poet Robert Lowell published his poems under the name of  Exploration of Life, in which he removed the gentle veil of poetry in the past, with astonishing temple of Monroe; he spoke of personal experience and inner dark side of human being which the traditional poets escaped to talk about---alcohol, suicide, sexual perversion and mental illness, all of which came pouring out. Hence this special, private and chill--provoking theme became the United States-style theme, sparking a whole poetry confession hot [1](P12-15). Sylvia Plath was a pioneer of that liberal Lord to its days. In her poetry Daddy, “Daddy” became symbols of power in the patriarchal society; Plath’s heart was difficult to breathe. Throughout her life, dad was like a huge statue which cast a heavy shadow that made her life full of sufferings. Plath took her dad as her idol in order to escape loneliness, but the idol finally became the greatest threat to her life, and her whole life and beliefs then collapsed from then on. Feminists viewed that male-centered society is the cause of female oppression, so fighting against patriarchal or male was their relentless power and goals. In the works of numerous women at Sylvia’s contemporary time, finding their rights of being understood, resetting their lost identity were their entire means to fight. Moreover, Plath’s literature works are far more abundant in emotions than the ordinary poets. The recurring tragedies happened on her also got amazing response in the contemporary intellectuals. Here, through the analysis of Plath’s work, the author would like to analysize the psychological process of the 20th century feminist struggle with the patriarchal society.
