【摘要】 多丽丝.莱辛(1919-),英国著名女作家,她以创新,多变的文学视角和丰富的创作成果享誉世界文坛。她的创作丰富,出版了十部长篇小说,七十多篇短篇小说,两部剧本,一本诗集,多本论文集和回忆录。莱辛关注社会政治问题,她的作品主题广泛,包括殖民主义,女性主义,马克思主义,精神分析以及宗教神秘思想等。她先后获得毛姆文学奖和梅迪斯奖,几度成为诺贝尔文学奖的候选人,2007年因其对文学的贡献被授予诺贝尔文学奖,被公认为当代最优秀的文学家。《金色笔记》发表于1962年,被誉为英国战后最伟大的作品之一,并确立了莱辛在当代英国文学界的中心地位。《金色笔记》也被评论界认为是战后英国独具风格的作品之一。自发表以来,《金色笔记》便受到女权主义者的青睐,多数论者认为该书是西蒙·德·波伏娃《第二性》的姊妹篇。小说的女主人公安娜·沃尔夫的生活经历基本上就是莱辛自身经历的写照。安娜的创作经历,感情生活,心路历程和政治生涯都同莱辛有着许多相似之处。小说中,莱辛倾注了大量笔墨来描写女性的生存状况,对女性的命运和遭遇给予了极大的同情和关注。《金色笔记》内容的丰富性和结构的独特性受到文学评论界的关注,小说中对二十世纪中叶女性生活真实细致的描写以及对人物心理的深入大胆剖析,获得女权主义者们的高度赞扬,被誉为“两性战争中有力的武器”和“女权运动的圣经”。本文运用女性主义批评的视角,通过对《金色笔记》文本的分析,揭示了在以父权文化为中心的社会中,无论传统女性还是所谓的“自由女性”,都不可避免地陷入某种生活困境,都不可能有绝对的自由与独立。构建两性和谐的关系,需要男女双方共同的努力。两性的世界不应对立,而应相铺相成。论文揭示了莱辛对两性关系现状及其出路的观念:两性只有建立在彼此理解,彼此支持的基础上才能沟通和融合,才能摆脱困境,获得自由和谐的发展。在人们的生活中,责任感和自我完善是构建两性和谐关系的重要途径和基础。男女两性都有不可避免的责任与义务,都应该不断检查自己,以获得自我的完善。全文共分为五部分:第一章是导入,介绍了莱辛的生平和她的创作成果,以及《金色笔记》的内容结构和有关该小说的文献综述。第二章是理论框架部分,阐述了女性主义,女性写作和《金色笔记》作为女权主义文本进行阐释的理论依据。第三章较为细致地分析了以男权为中心的社会中,男女两性的对立以及由此导致的矛盾冲突和困境,并指出解决冲突,摆脱困境需要两性共同的努力。第四章通过对索尔和安娜关系的阐释,说明两性的相互理解和支持才是实现自由平等的途径。第五章为结论部分,归纳了《金色笔记》的主题意义,责任感和自我完善在两性构建和谐关系发挥着关键性的作用。

【Abstract】 Doris Lessing(1919-) is one of the world’s most significant English novelists. She holds a unique place among twentieth century women writers for the variety and scope of her works.During her literary career, she produced more than 10 long novels, more than 70 short stories, 2 dramas, one collection of poems and some essays and reminiscences.The Golden Notebook was published in 1962, which has been considered as Lessing’s masterpiece, presenting her feeling of feminism. With its profound and diversified thematic concerns, the novel has attracted increasing critical attention. Viewed as a key text of the feminist movement, the Golden Notebook was acclaimed as "a useful weapon in the sex" and "the Bible of the Women’s Movement" because of its impact on the Women’s Liberation Movement during 1960s and 1970s.Based on the feminist theories, and by way of textual analysis, this thesis presents an interpretation of the implied theme underlying the complex novel The Golden Notebook. Lessing stands for social justice and believes that women are able to play a greater part in improving the society if the harmonious male-female relationship is established.The thesis is divided into five chapters.Chapter one mainly introduces Lessing’s life experiences and her novel The Golden Notebook, including the literature review of the study, her experiences of growth, the brilliant literary status that she occupies in modern literature.Chapter two presents the theoretical framework of the thesis to indicate the significance and methodology of the study.Chapter Three deals with the binary opposition between male and female implied in this novel, including the repression of patriarchal ideology on traditional women and the impossibility of the so-called " free women" ’s separation with men.Chapter four discusses the self-improvement of both sexes as a means to construct the harmonious male-female relationship by illustrating the relationship between Saul and Anna. Chapter five draws a conclusion. This paper focuses on illustrating the male-female relationship in the novel and bears the great significance that the sense of responsibility plays a key role in the construction of harmonious male-female relationship.
