A Solitary Soul

內容簡介

內容簡介 凱特‧蕭邦的《覺醒》女主角Edna Pontellier是一位年輕的上流社會女性，她拒絕承擔妻子和母親的職責，作品於1899 年上映後震驚了讀者。作者在抒情和印象派的文字中傳達了“一部分從未被承認的女性經驗”(作家芭芭拉‧金索夫評論)。她無法在這個世界上找到一種生活方式來適應她所發現的自己。 即使到了現在，這樣的概念仍繼續引起讀者的共鳴，本書是作者凱特‧蕭邦最著名和最有影響力的作品。Kate Chopin’s startling portrayal of Edna Pontellier, a young, upper-class woman who rejects her duties as a wife and mother, shocked readers upon its release in 1899. In lyrical and impressionistic prose, Chopin conveys “ a part of female experience that had never before been acknowledged” (Barbara Kingsolver)—the inner turmoil of a young woman unable to find a way of living in the world that accommodates the person she has discovered herself to be. Its unflinching truth continues to resonate with readers even now, cementing The Awakening as Chopin’s most famous and influential work.

作者介紹

作者介紹 Kate ChopinKate Chopin was born on February 8, 1850, to an affluent family in St. Louis, Missouri. In 1870, she moved with her husband to his native New Orleans. Chopin began her literary career at the age of thirty-six, as a recently widowed mother of six. From 1890 to 1897, Chopin published her first novel, At Fault, and nearly one hundred short stories, collected in Bayou Folk and A Night in Acadie. Chopin’s stories were widely read, appearing in leading magazines of the day. Her most famous novel, The Awakening, faced wide condemnation upon its release in 1899 for its morally ambivalent subject matter. It has since become recognized as an essential work of early feminist fiction. Kate Chopin died on August 22, 1904.Laura R. FisherLaura R.
