本书是作者的博士论文修改而成。该书将重点研究凯特?肖邦作品中觉醒的女性形象。本书从凯特?肖邦短篇小说中觉醒女性形象研究入手,将研究重点集中在她的长篇小说――《觉醒》中女主角――艾德娜这一形象上。作为凯特?肖邦笔下觉醒女性群体的完美的代表和代言人,艾德娜不仅是位有思想的女性,而且也是一位不断思想着的女性。她的“前卫”的觉醒、孤寂的困惑和颇具争议的不仅是关于女性的寓言,也是对人类生存状态和人性中所蕴涵的复杂性的解读。艾德娜在觉醒和困惑中追寻着自我、发现了自我并由此感悟了人生的真谛。本书认为,艾德娜用年轻的生命兑换来的高境界的心灵自由和她*终摆脱灵魂藩篱的痛苦的精神之旅深刻地揭示了文学中的一个重大主题――人类寻找身份或者说“我是谁”的主题。艾德娜以生命为代价、执着地追寻着灵魂的伊甸园的心路历程诠释了这样一个哲学命题:我追寻,故我在。
