从女性主义视角解读《女勇士》中的食物意象VIP免费

摘要在20世纪60年代的民权以及女性主义运动的推动下，汤亭亭打破沉默，用虚构的、夸张的和讽刺的笔触为我们展现了华裔女性被社会边缘化的生活画面。本文将从女性主义视角解读《女勇士》中的食物意象。具体来讲，就是通过母亲为女儿准备的带着恐怖、怪异、残忍色彩的食物，隐喻华裔女性在男性主义和种族主义中寻求“自我”身份的步履维艰。作者直接批判和讽刺中国迂腐的“男尊女卑”思想和白人社会的种族歧视，并积极寻求自我身份认同以及努力成长为女勇士。这篇论文由六部分组成。第一部分，简要介绍作者汤亭亭和她的巨著之一《女勇士》，浅析食物与女性、文化和身份的关系。第二部分，阐述女性主义、种族歧视以及学者已有的研究。第三部分，分析食物如何体现母女矛盾心理，包含矛盾的显现、激化以及调和。第四部分，阐述对“中式胃口”的抵抗和接受对应对本民族的文化的憎恨和认同心理。第五部分，阐述女勇士成长之路，包括提升自我意识、寻求自我身份及民族身份认同。第六部分，总结全文。关键词：食物意象;华裔美国人;女性主义;种族歧视;自我身份认同ContentsTOC\o"1-3"\h\uHYPERLINK\l_Toc188291.Introduction1HYPERLINK\l_Toc236721.1IntroductionofMaxineHongKingston1HYPERLINK\l_Toc179731.2IntroductionofTheWomanWarrior2HYPERLINK\l_Toc112461.3Food&Women,CultureandIdentity3HYPERLINK\l_Toc129632.LiteratureReview4HYPERLINK\l_Toc217202.1StudiesonFeminism4HYPERLINK\l_Toc290382.2StudiesonRacialDiscrimination5HYPERLINK\l_Toc244452.3SummariesonPreviousStudies6HYPERLINK\l_Toc85873.FoodImplicationsinMother-and-DaughterAmbivalence7HYPERLINK\l_Toc285803.1TheArisingofDissension7HYPERLINK\l_Toc239993.2TheWorseningofConflict8HYPERLINK\l_Toc27333.3TheMitigatingofDiscrepancy10HYPERLINK\l_Toc237624.TheRebellionandAcceptanceof“Appetite”11HYPERLINK\l_Toc244524.1Anorexia:NationalSelf-hatred11HYPERLINK\l_Toc82554.2Anorexia:AgainstRacialDiscrimination12HYPERLINK\l_Toc99924.3Reconciliation:NationalSelf-respect12HYPERLINK\l_Toc34395.TheGrowthofWomanWarrior13HYPERLINK\l_Toc104665.1TheRisingofSelf-awareness13HYPERLINK\l_Toc280995.2ThePursuanceofSelf-identityandNation-identity14HYPERLINK\l_Toc40656.Conclusion15HYPERLINK\l_Toc29688Bibliography17TheAnalysisofFoodImagesinTheWomanWarriorfromthePerspectiveofFeminism1.IntroductionTheChineseAmericanliteraturearisesandreachesitssupremeprosperityin1960sto1990s.WiththepublicationofTheWomanWarriorwrittenbyMaxineHongKingstonin1976,ChineseAmericanliteraturecametoitssparklingstage.ThenovelwontheNationalBookCriticsAwardforthebestnon-fictionofthatyearandwaswell-receivedinAmericanacademicmainstreams.InTheWomanWarrior,MaxineHongKingstoncreatesastrikinglyvividandpicturesquepanoramaofChineselifeinAmerica.ItmadethefirstsignificantimpactofChineseAmericanconsciousness,andpavedthewayforyoungwritersofthenextdecadetoproveconclusivelythattheChineseAmericavoicehadapowerfulresonancefarbeyondChinatown.1.1IntroductionofMaxineHongKingstonMaxineHongKingston(Chinesename:TangTingting),wasborninStockton,California,in1940.Shewasthethirdofeightchildrentothefirst-generationChineseimmigrants,TomandYingLanHong.Hewasalaundryworkerandgamblinghouseownerandshewasapractitionerofmedicine.KingstonisaChineseAmericanauthorandProfessorEmeritaattheUniversityofCalifornia,Berkeley.KingstonhaspublishedsuchworksasTheWomanWarrior(1976),ChinaMen(1980),TripmasterMonkey(1989),TheFifthBookofPeace(2004),andVeteransofWar,VeteransofPeace(2006).AwardsforhergreatcontributionstoChineseAmericanLiteratureincluding:theNationalBookCriticsCircleAward,NationalBookAward,NationalHumanitiesMedalaswellasN...
