英语翻译
成长小说,简而言之是指记录年轻人道德和心理成长过程的小说.《爱玛》,
被公认为奥斯丁最杰出的小说,描写的就是女主人如何走出一个个错误而步入道
德完善和情感成熟的过程.然而,以eJormeBucklye为代表的评论家们认为《爱
玛》不能被称为一部成长小说.以他们的观点,成长小说这一体裁应涉及离家踏
上寻求自我的旅程这一主题,而《爱玛》却无相关情节.在仔细阅读和研究小说
及相关理论后,笔者发现《爱玛》不仅符合成长小说的定义,而且和Bucklye先
生所提出的成长小说的大部分特征相吻合.因此,重点探讨《爱玛》中女主人公
的成长经历将有利于女性成长主题的研究.
论文第一部分详细阐述了成长小说这一概念,继而分析爱玛成长的三阶段,
并用青少年发展理论从心理和社会的角度剖析了爱玛的成长,以此验证了《爱玛》
是一部典型的女性成长小说.第二部分从四方面着重探讨了奥斯丁在突出爱玛的
成长中所使用的创作手段.奥斯丁从爱玛的视角来展开故事情节,通过对爱玛内
心世界的直接透视,即“内部视角”,来见证爱玛的心理成熟过程.同时,奥斯丁
又创造了MLKnightel,y一个父亲式的爱人,来时时纠正爱玛所犯的错误;用
Harriets而ht,一个天真而没头脑的女伴,来反射爱玛的想法、引出爱玛的顿悟.
此外,奥斯丁也安排了一个谨慎的叙述者来告知读者爱玛自身所不能发表的话语.
论文的第三部分从女性道德完善和女权主义的角度研究了奥斯丁所塑造的人物,
爱玛,的积极意义和局限性,指出爱玛的道德完善过程是和当时整个社会的道德
进步密切相关的.奥斯丁的女权主义思想在《爱玛》中初见端倪,主要体现在爱
玛对于自身权利的驾驭,男女主人公互相间的教育作用和爱玛对于婚姻的独特见
但在小说结尾,奥斯丁似乎完全放弃了爱玛的女权思想,把她转变为一个传
统顺从的妻子形象.这一转变是奥斯丁所处的时代给小说带来的局限.把《爱玛》
作为一部典型的女性成长小说研究使我们对于18世纪未、19世纪初的女性成长有
了更全面的认识,这对当代女性青少年的成长研究有着深刻的借鉴作用.

A biludngsromna,in its simplest sense,is a novel about the moral and
psychological growth of a young man or a young woman.Emma,claimed as Jane
Austen's most complex and best novel,is about the herione's progress out of her
errors onto moral and emotional maturity.Some critics,represented by Jerome
Buckley,hold that Emma is not a bildungsroman for this genre has always been
associated with the theme of the journey or quest,while Emma has not.However,by
reading Emma and surveying related theories,it's found that Emma not only
matches the criteria of a bildungsroman,but also fulfills most of the
significant features of Buckley's definition of the bildungsroman,so a careful
study of the heroine's growth is quitr necessary for the female adolescent
development study.
The first chapter of the thesis explains the concept of bildungsroman in detail
.analyses the three stages of Emma's growth and explores Emma's psychological
development by means of developmental theory about adolescents .Thus Emma as a
typical female bildungsroman is proved .the second chapter focuses on author's
intentional arrangements of Emma's development from four aspects .In order to
achieve the reader's understanding of Emma's growth ,Austen herself
intentionally arranges the story to be observed through Emma's eyes,and uses
"inside view "as a tool to interpret and witness Emma's psychological process
of maturity .besides ,Austen arranges Mr.Knightley ,a reliable fatherly lover
,to correct Emma's faults ANF assess her value ,and thus to help Emma grow step
by step .In addition ,Harriet Smith ,an innocent and mindless girl ,is arranged
as a mirror to reflect Emma's thought and her final introspection .What's
more,an unobtrusive narrator is also arranged to enable the reader to know the
few part that Emma cannot tell by herself .the last part investigates the
significance and limitation of this female development .From Emma's growth ,the
upgrading of her morality is clear-cut ,which not only reflects the reality in
England at that time ,but also conforms to the moral advance in that society
.meanwhile ,the flame of Austen 's feminism can be seen from Emma's using her
known to gain and exercise power ,form the education of the hero and heroine one
another as moral equals ,and also from Emma's early independent attitude to
marriage .But at the end of the novel ,Jane Austen ignores Emma's feminist
thinking ,and transforms a dynamic self-assured lady into a conventional
subservient wife ,which is due to Austen 's inevitable limitation at her time .
The conclusion is drawn that the study of Emma as a typical female bildungsroman
provides using insight into the development of a young lady in the late 18th and
early 19th century ,whose life experience and psychology can be used as
reference to the research on present female adolescents .
