觉醒

Kate Chopin, was born Katherine O'Flaherty in St. Louis on Feburary8,1851, of a prosperous Irish-born merchant father and an aristocratic Creole mother. She studied piano, wrote poetry, and read Dickens, Austen, Goethe, de Stael, and the Brontes. Despite her free spirit--she was once nicknamed the "littlest rebel" for yanking down a Union flag--Kate grew to be a leading social belle, admired for her wit and beauty.In 1870 she married Oscar Chopin. Matrimony did not quell her independence; she dressed unconventionally, took long unchaperoned walks, and smoked cigarettes. In their twelve years of married life, she bore six children, and upon Oscar's sudden death in 1882 she took over the management of the Chopin family plantation in Natchitoches, Louisana. She turned seriously to writing shortly thereafter, publishing stories in Vogue and Atlantic Monthly. She wrote a novel, At Fault(1890), Bayou Folk, a collection of stories(1894), A Night in Acadie, a second collection (1897), and her masterpiece The Awakening(1899), which aroused a national scandal for its "indecency." Banned by libraries, it even prevented her admission into the St. Louis Fine Arts Club--even though Kate Chopin was famous for her literary salon, which attracted distinguished artists and writers from all over the country.Always sensitive to criticism, Chopin was devastated by the furor that surrounded the publication of The Awakening, and its harsh reception ultimately caused her to stop writing. When she died in 1904, she had been denied the recognition she desperately wanted and richly deserved.

《万有文库(第一辑外国)--觉醒》和作者的其他作品 一样，在者在描绘美国南方路易西安那州的克里欧人（Creole）的人和事，克里欧人为法国移民后裔，都为贵族。艾德娜原本置身于法国式的上流社会中，生活的目的只有相夫教子、宴款宾客。在这样的一个社会里，女人的身份是因男人而定位；女人没有自我，而只是某人的女儿、姊妹、妻子、母亲，或情妇。这年夏天，艾德娜全家到新奥尔良南方约五十英里外的格蓝岛度假，邂逅劳伯特，终于燃起自我遥意识，不愿意再因循先生及社会的要求而扮演别人设定的角色。她勇敢的脱离常轨，一心去发展自己的艺术（绘画）潜能，追求自由、独立

读后感

<The Awakening>写于1899年, 出版后因主题的尺度遭受监禁和批评, 直到作者去世几十年后才被认定为19世纪美国文学的重要一章. 书里有一个美丽的女人, 已婚, 成为丈夫和儿子的财产. 晒了一夏天太阳和遇到情人之后她决定不再昏头昏脑的活着. 是悲剧还是希望别人无法评判, 醒来的...  

这是一部在美国文学史上被“重新发现”的经典。出版于1899年，在“cult of womenhood”的时代，《觉醒》所受关注甚少，即便有，也是负面的评价。只在20世纪70年代女性主义盛行时，在女性主义者试图重新发现被忽略的女性作家及其作品、重建文学传统和经典的努力中，《觉醒》被经...

《橘子红了》中看到一本书《觉醒》，它引导秀禾挣脱命运的枷锁，她的挣扎，她的探索在生命的最后一刻做了终结。那时候，耀辉正牵着新娘的手在众人的祝福声中步入教堂，空旷的拱形屋顶回荡着美妙的乐章。 信手就拿了这本书，一如平时，一切皆因直觉。全英文版本，字字句句...  

醒来了，却还是困着 2008-01-06 00:33 读了本书，后天就要考试，建筑物理，围护结构的传热人工光源的特性，种种的，更教人觉得无聊，觉得烦琐，；索性丢开，来敲几个段落。 书名“觉醒”，故事也平常，二十九岁的Edna忽然觉得人生不该是那样活，不该是那么守在家里...  

用户评价

突然想起这本婚外恋小说，当年的女性解放小说，义无反顾的总是女人啊。。。

当时的惊世之作，现在看比较过时了。

感觉书写的一般。这种觉醒往往都会被家庭责任和社会道德所困扰，即使是今天还是这样。

我真心觉得这位阿姨翻译的不好，尤其是在看了原著以后感觉更强烈了= =但是究竟是哪里不好，谁给我一个切入点？神马中译本赏析我不会写论文啦><
