简爱中的女权主义爱情观
摘要:
《简?
爱》是英国著名小说家夏洛蒂.勃朗特的代表作。
它成功的塑造出了第一个在英
国文学史上敢于追求真爱,同社会和命运抗争的女权主义形象。
因为它不仅触动了作者的心,
同时也震撼了文学评论界以及使读者对非传统的女主角产生了极大的兴趣。
简爱,她的不平
凡的特点表现在对自由,平等以及独立的追求。
这篇论文试图对简爱性格的分析来阐述简爱
的女权主义爱情观。
简爱,这个正面人物形象主要是她的反抗精神。
她坚持自己的原则去
不断反抗不公平的社会。
她用尽全力去追求自由,平等,独立和真爱。
经过坚持不懈的努力
她最终获得自尊,自由和真爱。
关键词:
女权;独立;平等;真爱。
