| Abstract: | 大陸作家王安憶被稱為新時期文學女性作家中，產量極豐、得獎頻頻的一位。身為一名女性作家，她用女性特有的觀點融合成長背景的流轉動盪，在小說人物刻畫及描寫城市家鄉情感上，總是細膩而深刻。他的作品題材及篇幅都很廣泛，其中又以中短篇小說特別受到好評，而在她的小說中「女性角色」往往是著墨最多、最生動的。無論於角色刻劃及情節安排，所透露出女性意識的意味相當濃厚，也特別值得提出探討。女性意識的概念在當代早已被視為理所當然，但細細觀察這個看似現代化的社會，卻又能發現傳統的足跡幾乎無處不在，這也是為何歷經多年後，這個議題仍能引發眾多感觸的原因。
本文所關注的女性意識主題，將鎖定於王安憶在80年代所創作的「三戀」(《荒山之戀》、《小城之戀》、《錦繡谷之戀》)以及90年代後創作的《米尼》、《我愛比爾》(台灣麥田出版社版本書名為《處女蛋》)五本小說作為研究範圍，以「女性意識」為主旨，探討王安憶在這五本小說中，賦予女性之性格、環境、際遇等特殊條件下，女性如何從覺知初醒到勇敢追尋自我，又如何因本身條件所囿，陷入自我迷失當中，最後王安憶又如何給予這些女性啟發，也同時表達了王安憶對現代女性的期許。
The Chinese writer, Wang An-yi, is considered to be very abundant in her literary works and awards among all the female writers of New-era Literature. As a female writer, Wang An-yi integrates the female perspective with the upheaval of her background to delicately and profoundly depict the characters and the affection towards hometown. Her works are extensive in both the subject matter and length, among which the short stories gain the best comments. In her novels, female roles are often the ones which are emphasized the most and vividly. Female consciousness, which is particularly worth discussing, is strongly revealed in both the portrayal of characters and the arrangement of plots. Though the concept of female consciousness seems to have long been taken as granted by the contemporaries, the footsteps of tradition are everywhere, observing the seemingly modern society. This is why the issue of female consciousness still leads to many feelings after so many years.
The research in the thesis will focus on the female consciousness in five novels of Wang An-yi’s- “Three Loves,” composed in the 80s, including “The Love of Barren Hills,” “The Love of a Small Town,” and “The Love of Jinxiu Valley,” and also “Mini” and “I Love Bill” (all called “Virgin Egg” in the Taiwan Press version, publishing by Rye Field Publishing Co.), composed after the 90s. The aim of the thesis is to discuss the process of how women’s consciousness is awaken, how they pursue their self-awareness with courage, how they become lost due to the restriction of their self conditions, and finally how Wang An-yi inspires these women under the specific conditions of characters, environment, and fate that are given to the women, which also expresses Wang’s expectations towards modern women. |
