凯特·肖邦在《觉醒》中塑造了三类女性人物形象:拉夫人——传统型女性;莱兹小姐——独立型女性;埃德娜——反叛型女性。她们各有特点但都拘囿于男权社会的束缚。小说通过这三类女性形象的塑造,反映了作者对女性生存状态的关注,批判了男权主义的社会结构和社会文化对女性主体性的遏制,展现了肖邦对女性自我意识的弘扬。 Kate Chopin in the “Awakening” created three types of female characters: Lady La - traditional women; Miss Leeds - independent women; Edna - rebel women. They all have their own characteristics but are restrained by the patriarchal society. Through the shaping of these three types of female images, the novel reflects the author’s concern about the living conditions of women, criticizes the masculine social structure and social and cultural containment of women’s subjectivity, and shows Chopin’s promotion of women’s self-awareness.
