《黄墙纸》是女性哥特小说的代表作,也是美国女性主义作家夏洛特·帕金斯·吉尔曼最著名的作品之一。作者颠覆了传统的叙事方式和叙事技巧,与传统女性哥特小说中不管清醒与否都以叙事者口中他者身份出现的女性人物不同,吉尔曼塑造了一个被关在阁楼里的疯女人这样一种极具哥特特征的形象,并以这个疯癫叙事者的口吻,通过独特的叙事话语表达了作者反抗父权压迫的内心世界。小说还一反传统的书写形式上,有意地运用了日记体。所有这些都是在以独特的隐蔽性表达了女性反抗父权压迫的心声。 “Yellow Wallpaper” is a masterpiece of female Gothic novels and one of the most famous works by American feminist writer Charlotte Perkins Gilman. The author subverts the traditional narrative and narrative techniques. Unlike traditional female Gothic novels, female figures in the female narrator, whether conscious or not, create a madwoman in a loft A highly Gothic image, and in the tone of this crazy narrator, through the unique narrative discourse, expressed the author’s inner world against the oppression of patriarchy. Fiction also anti-traditional forms of writing, the intentional use of diary body. All of this is the expression of women’s opposition to the oppression of patriarchal power in a uniquely concealed manner.
