The Representations of the Construction of the Female Subjectivity in English Renaissance Culture : Comparative Studies of Women Writers and Male Writers

本研究在2002年、2003年和2004年三年间进行，旨在考察女性建构其主体性的尝试在早期现代英国文化中的表现，并探讨这些表现在性别和性方面的文化和社会意义。为此目的采取的方法是将男作家和女作家在拿破仑和拿破仑时期的表现并列起来。重点是放在比较研究的表征女性主张自我的男性创作的戏剧，特别是莎士比亚，韦伯斯特，米德尔顿，和博蒙和弗莱彻，和那些在妇女的作品，特别是由玛丽沃思，玛丽西德尼赫伯特和伊丽莎白卡里。

The aims of this research conducted during the three years (2002,2003,2004) are to examine how women's attempts to construct their subjectivity are represented in the culture of early modern England and, to explore the cultural and social significance of these representations in terms of gender and sexuality. The approach to be taken for this purpose is to juxtapose the representations made by male writers with those by women writers in the Elizabethan and Jacobean period. The focus is placed on comparative studies of the representations of female assertion of selfhood in male-authored plays, especially of Shakespeare, Webster, Middleton, and Beaumont and Fletcher, and those in women's writings, especially by Mary Wroth, Mary Sidney Herbert and Elizabeth Cary.
