Alice Walker简介
AliceWalker作品简介
Meridian is a heartfelt and moving story about one woman's personal revolution as she joins the Civil Rights Movement. Set in the American South in the 1960s it follows Meridian Hill, a courageous young woman who dedicates herself heart and soul to her civil rights work, touching the lives of those around her even as her own health begins to deteriorate. Hers is a lonely battle, but it is one she will not abandon, whatever the costs. This is classic Alice Walker, beautifully written, intense and passionate.
1.在英美传统文化中, 紫色( purple) 如同中 国传统文化中的黄色( yellow), 是一种“尊 色”, 是帝王之色。神秘的紫色在英美文化 中便是皇权、崇高和尊严的象征。沃克将书 名定为“紫色”并将之贯穿全文, 象征着对 美好生活和未来的追求。
2.主人公茜莉喜欢紫色, 在小说刚开始 时, 茜莉渴望能买上一块紫色的布料做 衣服,这是主人公渴望平等、独立的隐喻 表达。。而在小说的结尾, 获得人格尊 严和经济独立的茜莉将自己的屋子涂成 鲜艳的紫色和红色是其真正享有自己的 自由和权利的象征表达, 展示了茜莉对 美好生活的渴望, 也象征着她曾受白人 社会和黑人男性双重凌辱的社会地位的 改变以及她美好、独立、完整人生的开 始。
Alice Walker作品简介
• 1965-"To Hell With Dying" (short stories) • 1973-In Love and Trouble: Stories of Black Women ( a collection short stories) • 1976-Meridian《子午线》(novel) • 1982-The Color Purple (novel) • 1989-The Temple of My Familiar (novel) • 1998-By the Light of My Father's Eyes (novel)
• It is a short story in In love and Trouble and remains a cornerstone of her work. Her use of quilting as a metaphor for the creative legacy that African Americans inherited from their maternal ancestors changed the way we defined art, women's culture, and African American lives. By putting African American women's voices at the center of the narrative for the first time, "Everyday Use" anticipated the focus of an entire generation of black women writers. This casebook includes an introduction by the editor, a chronology of Walker's life, authoritative texts of "Everyday Use" and "In Search of Our Mothers' Gardens," an interview with Walker, six critical essays, and a bibliography.

《紫色》1983年一举拿下代表美国文学最 高荣誉的三大奖：普利策奖(Pulitzer Prize)、美国国家图书奖(The National Book Awards)、全国书评家协会奖 (NBCC Award)。
@@中国日报网站消息：美国 图书馆协会(ALA)日前公布研究 报告，黑人女作家艾丽丝·沃克 的小说《紫色》竟然与《哈 利·波特》、《魔戒》、《傲慢 与偏见》和莎士比亚戏剧一起， 成为被重读次数最多的文学作 品
3.此外,“紫色”除了象征生命的尊严和人类的希 望外, 紫色还是女同性恋主义的标志。书中对茜莉 和莎格·艾微利( Shug Avery) 的同性恋描写与严 格意义上的同性恋性关系是有区分的, 激进女权主 义者们声称, 女同性恋者实际上是自发的、“下意 识”的女权主义者,
---因此, 沃克大胆借用“紫色”为书 名,“把跪着的女性拉起来, 把她们提到 了王权的高度”, 让黑人妇女也享有帝 王般的尊严和社会地位。

身为一名黑人女性，沃克更为关注黑人的困境、沉默的黑人女性以及生态环境等社会问题。
《紫色》是艾丽斯·沃克的代表作之一，在黑人文学史上有着深远的影响。
在《紫色》中,沃克描述了黑人妇女和自然在父权制社会统治下的遭遇，和努力寻求自我的过程。
本文以生态女性主义为视角，在性别压迫,种族歧视，生态危机的基础上，指出了父权制对自然与女性的双重统治，也探讨了女性和自然反抗压迫寻求和谐共存的道路。
本文从四个方面探讨了作者的生态女性主义意识。
首先简要介绍了国内外对艾丽斯·沃克的《紫色》的文学评论，提出了生态女性主义理论对艾丽斯·沃克作品的影响。
其次分析了小说中女性所遭受的双重压迫以及人类对自然环境的掠夺，并指明二者受压迫的同源性:父权制的统治。
然后论述了女性和自然反抗父权制统治的声音:女性的团结互助以及自然对人类的预警。
最后分析了黑人男性的转变，白人和黑人关系的转变，提出了男性与女性、白人与有色人种、人类与自然和平共处的可能性。
用生态女性主义理论来解读《紫色》可以拓宽对小说及作者创作思想的研究，同样也可以呼吁人类自身对生态平衡的关注与保护。

As a black woman, Walker pays more concerns on such issues as the plight of blacks, the muted group of black women,nature, and other social problems in American.The Color Purple one of her masterpieces,which has profound influence in the history of the African literature.In the novel,Walker depicts the oppression upon black women and the exploitation of nature in the patriarchal society and their searching for self identity as well. This thesis illustrates homogeneity of twin domination upon the black women and nature, and puts forward ways for harmonious survival of human and nature by close examination of gender oppression, racial discrimination and ecological crisis in The Color Purple. My thesis will be divided into four main parts. Firstly,I will make a brief introduction to literary review on Alice Walker's The Color Purple and introduces ecofeminism and its effects on Alice Walker's works. Secondly, specific analysis will be given to reveal the dominance over nature and women, and to illustrate the same cause for it: patriarchal domination. Thirdly, it illustrates the voices of rebellion from black women and nature: women's unity and alliance and the nature's pre-warning upon human beings. At last,based on the fictional details, it presents an analysis of transformation of the black men and the white; thus gives us a hopeful possibility for co-existence of human beings and nature. From the ecofeminist approach, it is expected to shed fresh light on the research of the novel and Walker's spirits and evoke more attention to ecological balance.Key words：“Color Purple”; eco-feminism; the black women; harmonyContents摘要 (I)Abstract (II)Chapter One Alice Walker and Eco-Feminism (1)1.1 Alice Walker and Literary Review on her Color Purple错误！未定义书签。
