鲍西娅在《威尼斯商人》中是莎士比亚着力刻画的人文时代别具风采的女性形象。她美丽、仁爱、温柔、俏皮,她的非凡机智和胆识,在那样一个父权同神权一样不可侵犯、女性被占主流地位的男权统治而长期遭受歧视与压迫的封建社会里,使她摆脱了封建思想束缚的婚姻的桎梏,教化了世俗婚姻观念,赢得了法庭斗争的胜利,体现了一个机智勇敢的女子应有的社会价值。她那种敢于与命运抗争的精神和积极进取的人生态度,不仅值得当时女性学习,对今日女性之生活也颇具学习借鉴的时代意义。 In the “Merchant of Venice,” Portia is a distinctively feminine image of Shakespeare in the humanistic era. Her beauty, kindness, tenderness, playfulness, her extraordinary wit and boldness rid her of feudal society, long subjected to discrimination and oppression, under the condition that her patriarchal power is as inviolable as theocracy and governed by the dominant patriarchal power of women The feudal marriage shackles of feudal ideology, educated the concept of secular marriage, won the victory of the courtroom fight, reflects the due social value of a wise and brave woman. Her spirit of daring to fight against destiny and her proactive attitude to life are not only worthy of studying at that time, but also of learning and learning from the present age of women.
