This essay discusses the matricidal tradition in western culture and how Phyllis Nagy’s Butterfly Kiss(1994)rewrites this tradition and undermines the patriarchy.It suggests Nagy’s play questions the common dishonest plays at that time,which fea?tures mother and daughter friendly with each other,and avoids the prevalent antagonism between mother and daughter in the real society.It considers how the play addresses this issue of maternal hatred and how Lily’s reconstruction reveals her act of matricide is actually a loving act coming from the desire to save her mother.The essay argues that Lily’s matricide rewrites the matricidal tra?dition in western culture and through accounting the oppression they suffer in the patriarchal society,the mothers and daughters in the play hope for a real connection that involves intimacy,love and nurturance. 相似文献

The Awakening of Self-consciousness of the African American Women—an Analysis of Dee in Everyday Use
Alice Walker is one of the prominent American writers in American women’s literature and black literature in 1950s-1960s. Everyday Use is regarded as Alice Walker’s best-written short story. The prevailing opinion among the critics about this story is that Dee is the traitor of black American’s cultural heritage, and the mother and Maggie are the hope of true value of the African Americans’ tradition and heritage; however, after considering the historical and cultural background of the story, we may safely come to the conclusion that Dee actually took the first step toward the awakening of self-consciousness of the African Americans women. 相似文献
