【摘要】：本文以美国黑人女性作家艾丽斯·沃克的《紫色》与美国新兴白人女性作家凯瑟琳·斯多克特的《相助》两部小说为研究对象,运用对比研究的方法,通过对两部作品中黑人女性形象的塑造、“姐妹情谊”的主题研究以及叙事手法的运用等方面的分析,以这两部小说中黑人女性精神成长之路为核心探究了美国黑人女性文学的核心主题。本论文共分五个部分。绪论部分主要介绍了艾丽斯·沃克和凯瑟琳·斯多克特的生平以及两部小说的创作概况,梳理了国内外学术界对其创作的研究现状,继而将这些学术成果整合,说明了本论文研究课题的方向以及意义所在。第一章名为“觉醒中的反抗：《紫色》与《相助》中的女性形象”,因为在两部作品中作者都将黑人女性形象作为作品的主要人物,所以在第一章主要是以美国黑人女性文学以往塑造的黑人女性形象为素材,对两部作品中的黑人女性形象进行比较,进而指出这些女性精神成长过程中的异同,着重分析了她们由开始的麻木无知转变为具有成熟思想的独立女性这一曲折过程。第二章主要从“姐妹情谊”这一角度出发,比较分析两部作品中黑人女性成长的主要方式。通过比较分析发现,两部作品中的黑人女性形象起初在面对其所处的“非人”困境时处于精神麻木或无力放抗的现实状态,但是在她们得到了族裔内部和白人“姐妹”的帮助后才开始生成新的自我独立意识,而这也成为她们获得真正独立地位的重要契机和标志。第三章主要研究的是两部作品的叙事手法,找到作者是通过怎样的叙事技巧巧妙地表现出不同女性在确立自我身份时的独特性。在结论部分中,从整体上总结了两部作品在人物形象、“姐妹情谊”的主题以及在叙事方法上的总体表现。
[Abstract]:This paper takes Alice Walker, a black American female writer, as the object of study, and Catherine Stokert, a new white female writer in the United States, as the object of study, using the method of comparative study. Through the analysis of the image of black women in the two works, the theme study of "sisterhood" and the use of narrative techniques, etc. Based on the spiritual growth of black women in these two novels, this paper explores the core theme of American black women literature. This thesis is divided into five parts. The introduction mainly introduces the life of Alice Walker and Catherine Stockout and the general situation of the creation of the two novels, combs the current situation of the academic research on her creation at home and abroad, and then integrates these academic achievements. The research direction and significance of this thesis are explained. The first chapter is entitled "Resistance in Awakening: the female characters in" Purple "and" help ", because in both works the author regards black women as the main characters in his works. So in the first chapter, we compare the black female images in the two works, and then point out the similarities and differences in the process of the spiritual growth of these women. This paper analyzes their tortuous process from numbness and ignorance to independent women with mature thoughts. The second chapter mainly analyzes the main ways of black women's growth in the two works from the perspective of sisterhood. Through comparative analysis, it is found that the black female images in the two works are at first in a state of mental numbness or inability to resist when they are faced with the "inhuman" dilemma. But with the help of the inner race and the white "sisters", they began to develop a new sense of self-independence, which became an important opportunity and symbol for them to obtain the status of true independence. The third chapter mainly studies the narrative techniques of the two works, and finds out how the author skillfully shows the uniqueness of different women in establishing their own identity. In the conclusion part, the author summarizes the characters, the theme of "sisterhood" and the overall performance of the narrative method in the two works.
