【摘要】 詹尼斯·加洛韦是当代苏格兰女性先锋文学运动中重要的一员,她的小说始终围绕女性话题,真实展现出苏格兰女性的生存现状。她的小说虽采用女性视角,却没有局限于传统的女性主义模式,而是把目光聚集于女性身体、女性工人阶级、苏格兰民族性等现代话题上,同时依托实验性的写作技巧和诙谐的语言风格,凸显苏格兰女性的边缘化地位,表达出对限制女性行为、忽略女性身份的当代社会的批判。加洛韦的首部小说《窍门是保持呼吸》是一部深入苏格兰女性生活的作品。通过对其女主人公乔伊·斯通因深受生活打击而逐渐走向抑郁的细腻描述,小说深刻地反映出苏格兰女性在父权制和资本主义体系所包围的空间中艰难生存、孤立无援的处境。本文基于梅洛·庞蒂、米歇尔·福柯、加布里尔·佐伦的空间理论,从身体空间、权力空间和文本空间三个方面分析乔伊与各个空间或矛盾共存、或备受压迫、或探索突破的复杂关系。乔伊面临生活困境,虽脆弱但又勇敢,虽无助但又坚韧,她在一系列打击中丢失女性意识、丧失自我价值,又在艰难摸索中重新确定自我身份,踏上自我治愈之路,这既传达出作者对女性力量的肯定与支持,又暗含作者对于打破社会对女性约束的积极探索。本文旨在通过对女主人公与空间的关系研究,揭示当代苏格兰女性在确定自我认识和实现自我价值的斗争中面对的重重阻力,表达詹尼斯·加洛韦对重新定义苏格兰女性地位、构建公平社会结构的美好愿景。更多还原

【Abstract】 Janice Galloway,a significant Scottish avant-garde writer,always focuses on women’s topics and truly shows the current situation of Scottish women in her novels.Though adopting a feminist perspective,Galloway’s novels are not limited to the conventional feminist mode.Her novels principally fix on modern topics such as women’s body,female working class and Scottish national identity as well as rely on experimental literary techniques and humorous language,which highlights the marginalized status of Scottish women and criticizes contemporary society that confines women’s movements and ignores their identity.The Trick is to Keep Breathing is Galloway’s first novel which explores deeply the life of Scottish women.Through the exquisite description of the protagonist Joy Stone’s gradual descent into depression,the novel reflects the plight of Scottish women in the spaces shrouded by patriarchy and capitalist system.This thesis,based on the spatial theories of Merleau Ponty,Michel Foucault and Gabriel Zoran,analyzes the protagonist’s contradictory,oppressed and exploratory relationships with body-space,power-space and text-space.When facing life difficulties,Joy Stone is fragile but brave,helpless but tough.She loses her self-worth and female consciousness in a series of blows but redefines her identity and embarks on the road of self-healing in the end,which conveys Galloway’s support for women’s strength and implies her active exploration of breaking the constraints of society on Scottish women.Through the analysis of the protagonist’s relationships with regard to three spaces,this thesis aims to reveal the obstacles in Scottish women’s struggles to define self-knowledge and achieve self-worth,as well as to express Janice Galloway’s vision of redefining women’s position and building a fair social structure.更多还原
