卡森·麦卡勒斯是20世纪美国文坛独树一帜的南方女作家,被认为是福克纳之后南方文学的新希望。她把握人物性格的技巧非常到位,擅长刻画畸形的南方平民。这与麦卡勒斯自身的经历有很大关系,她一生饱受疾病的折磨,瘫痪了二十五年。她的作品都表达了人的孤独主题,她称之为“精神隔绝”。本文拟从《伤心咖啡馆之歌》[1]的主人公爱密利亚的经历来探讨她“精神隔绝”产生的原因—她的性别身份和南方父权社会。
Carson McCullers is a unique Southern female writer in the 20th century American literary world, regarded as the new hope of southern literature after Faulkner. She is very good at grasping the character’s skills and is good at portraying the deformed southern civilians. This has a lot to do with McCalier’s own experience. She was tortured for twenty-five years by her illness. Her works express the theme of loneliness, which she calls “mental isolation.” This article intends to explore the causes of her “mental isolation” from the experience of her protagonist Amelia, “The Song of Sad Cafe” [1] - her gender identity and patriarchal society in the South.
