【摘要】 安吉拉·卡特(1940-1992)是英国当代著名的女性主义作家,她的女性主义观独具特色。本文着力于分析她在其最后一部小说《聪明的孩子》中所体现出的颠覆性的女性主义观,与之相对比的是乔治·爱略特在《弗罗斯河上的磨房》中体现的徘徊矛盾的女性主义观。根据美国女权主义批评家伊莱恩·肖瓦尔特著名的女性文学“三个阶段”理论,乔治·爱略特处于第一阶段即“女性”阶段,安吉拉·卡特处于第三阶段“女人”阶段。本文拟对这两个作家在其作品中所体现的女性主义观进行比较研究,认为她们的最终目标都是想达到男女两性关系的和谐共处;但前者一直在反抗和顺从之间徘徊,最终选择女性应该顺从男性以达到和谐,后者则大胆地颠覆了传统观念,重建男女之间的平等关系。本文共五部分。引言部分综述了国内外对安吉拉·卡特的研究现状、本文的研究方法、切入角度与研究目标以及全文的结构安排。第一章简单介绍处于“女性”阶段和“女人”阶段的女性作家的时代背景。第二章和第三章分别比较分析了乔治·爱略特的《弗罗斯河上的磨房》和安吉拉·卡特的《聪明的孩子》中所体现的女性主义观:主要从女主人公麦琪和多拉的爱情、教育和职业方面进行比较研究。最后是结论部分,简要总结本文的观点。

Chapter one introduces Showalter’s "three phasesof women’s literary development", and concentrates on women writers’ situation ofthe first and third phase, to which George Eliot and Angela Carter belong respectively.Chapter two consists of three parts. The first part is a brief introduction of GeorgeEliot and The Mill on the Floss. The second is the analysis of Maggie, from herattitudes towards love, education, and vocation. The last is the summary of thischapter, which summarizes George Eliot’s feminism. Chapter three is similar tochapter two in structure, consisting of three parts too. The first part is a briefintroduction about Angela Carter and Wise Children. The second is the analysis ofDora, also from her attitudes towards love, education, and vocation. The last is thesummary of Augela Carter’s feminism.The last part is conclusion. From the comparative study on Maggie and Dora,George Eliot’s and Angela Carter’s feminism above, it is clear that feminism hasdeveloped from wandering to subversion. Both George Eliot and Angela Carter try toachieve harmony between man and woman, but George Eliot is wandering betweenresistance and submission, at last she submits to patriarchy and Angela Carter istrying to reconstruct the contemporary heterosexual relationship by subverting thetradition.
