【摘要】：谭恩美因处女作《喜福会》而一举成名，成为当代美国的畅销作家。作为一名华裔女作家，继汤婷婷之后，她成功跻身于美国主流文化圈，自此，美国出版商开始把目光转向华裔作家，而其作品更多的进入主流社会并掀起一股华裔文学热。作者凭借其高超的叙事技巧及运用被评论家称为“讲故事的高手”（喜福会，2006：前言），，而小说被誉为“闪烁着宝石般的光芒”（喜福会，2006：前言）《喜福会》获得广大读者喜爱，其主要原因在于小说中讲述的故事与在美国生活的华裔女性有许多相似之处，容易引起共鸣。女性主义叙事理论的巧妙运用，让小说中的女性活跃于纸间并占据叙事声音的主导地位。（苏珊，兰瑟，1992:300）女性主义叙事学将形式分析与意识形态有机结合，从而弥补了女性主义文评与结构主义叙事的不足之处。在女性主义叙事经典之作《虚构的权威》中，苏珊.兰瑟提出，为平衡不同的读者群之间的关系，三种类型的叙事声音可以用来帮助女性作家建立声音的权威。华裔女性作家因处于男性统治的压制之中，巧妙地采用声音技巧可以使故事中的女性确立社会地位，夺回合法权利并解构男性话语。本文试图从女性主义叙事学角度深入探讨《喜福会》的叙事声音，着重分析作者型叙事声音，个人型叙事声音和集体型叙事声音的功能意义以及作者是如何通过不同的叙事声音来达到建立女性叙事权威的目的。文章前两章先回顾《喜福会》的众多评论，重点对小说、作者及叙事理论做一个简练的解说。第三章，作者型叙事声音恰如其分地引导着故事人物的思想走向,潜移默化地影响着读者的思维意识。第四章，个人型叙事声音使长期被忽视的女性能够自由地为他们的思想观念和行为做辩解。第五章，集体型叙事声音使历经过类似悲惨遭遇的人群共同发出震撼的声音并使得女性的申辩更具说服力，亦洗刷了男性强加于身的污点。
[Abstract]:Amy Tan became famous for her debut, Joy Luck Club, and became the best-selling writer in contemporary America. As a Chinese woman writer, after Kingston, she has successfully entered the mainstream cultural circle of the United States. Since then, American publishers have turned their eyes to Chinese writers, and her works have more entered the mainstream society and aroused a wave of Chinese literature craze. The author is known by critics as a "master of storytelling" (Joy Luck Club, 2006: preface) for his superb narrative skills, while the novel is hailed as "gems" (Joy Luck Club, 2006: preface) The Blessed Club is popular with the general public. The main reason is that the story in the novel has many similarities with the Chinese women living in the United States. With the skillful application of feminist narrative theory, the women in the novel are active in the paper and occupy the dominant position of narrative voice. (Susan, Lanser, 1992: 300) Feminist narratology combines formal analysis with ideology, which makes up for the deficiency of feminist literary criticism and structuralist narrative. In the Feminist narrative classic the Authority of Fiction, Susan. In order to balance the relationship between different readers, Lanser suggests that three types of narrative sound can be used to help female writers to establish the authority of voice. Chinese female writers are under the suppression of male domination, and the skillful use of sound techniques can make the women in the story establish their social status, regain their legal rights and deconstruct male discourse. This paper attempts to probe into the narrative voice of the Joy Luck Club from the perspective of feminist narratology, with an emphasis on the analysis of the author's narrative voice. The functional significance of individual narrative sound and collective narrative sound and how the author establishes the female narrative authority through different narrative sounds. The first two chapters first review the numerous reviews of the Joy Luck Club, focusing on a concise explanation of the novel, author and narrative theory. In the third chapter, the author's narrative sound appropriately guides the thought trend of the story characters and influences the reader's thinking consciousness imperceptibly. In Chapter 4, individual narrative voice enables long-neglected women to defend their ideas and behaviors freely. In the fifth chapter, the collective narrative voice makes the people who have experienced similar tragic experiences make a shocking sound together, and makes the women's defense more persuasive. It also cleans up the stains imposed on the body by the men.
