项目摘要

This research project aims to explore the political representations of the self and other in the nineteenth-century British women's writing by examining their literal intervention in social reforms in England and India.Chapter One examines Florence Nightingale's writings about the sanitary and cultural reforms in England and India, placing her as the 'moral guardian' of the British Empire. Nightingale contributed to the construction of a 'healthy' national character in England by calling the need for women's moral power. She also proposed a 'moral and healthier' colonial rule through the introduction of public health and the reform of the landholding system in India. However, her writings indicated not only her resistance against the patriarchal authority inherent in the British Empire but also her alliance with the consolidation of the British colonial rule.Mary Carpenter also contributed to the cultivation of 'Englishness' in cultural others : lower social orders in England and India … More n girls. Chapter Two examines Carpenter's reform of education in England and India, which demonstrates her pursuit of the `woman's mission' as a guardian of the national character and the reformation of the moral worth of imperial rule. Her work on India displays the complexity of feminist political intervention and nationalistic narratives aligned with the nineteenth-century imperial axiom. Carpenter fashioned herself as a 'mother' of cultural others who were discarded by the patriarchal authority of the British Empire, pursuing her desire for the initiative in implementing the moral reform of the British colonial rule.Chapter Three discusses the crusade of Josephine Butler within the framework of gender, class and the Empire. She organised female networks to rescue 'fallen' sisters and more effectively involved working-class male supporters. Through such measures, she intended to bring about a moral reform in the promiscuous aspects of all classes from the lower social order. Butler's scheme to rescue 'enslaved' Indian sisters evinces her rage and protest against the masculinity of imperial rule and its sexual double standards. Moreover, it signifies her desire to subvert the patriarchal authority in order to enable women to repossess their own bodies. Less

本研究旨在探讨十九世纪英国女性写作中自我与他者的政治表征，并以英国与印度的社会改革为切入点，第一章探讨佛罗伦萨·南丁格尔作为大英帝国的道德守护者，对英国与印度卫生与文化改革的书写。南丁格尔通过呼吁女性道德力量的需要，为英国“健康”民族性格的构建做出了贡献。她还提出了一个“道德和健康的”殖民统治，通过引入公共卫生和改革的土地持有制度在印度。然而，她的作品不仅表明了她对大英帝国固有的父权权威的反抗，而且还表明了她与英国殖民统治的巩固的联盟。玛丽卡彭特还为文化他者中“英国性”的培养做出了贡献：英国和印度的下层社会秩序 ...更多信息 n女孩。第二章考察卡彭特在英国和印度的教育改革，体现了她对国民性守护者“妇女使命”的追求和对帝国统治道德价值的改造。她在印度的作品展示了女权主义政治干预的复杂性和与19世纪帝国公理相一致的民族主义叙事。卡彭特把自己塑造成被大英帝国父权权威所抛弃的文化他者的母亲，追求自己在实施英国殖民统治的道德改革中的主动权。第三章在性别、阶级和帝国的框架内讨论约瑟芬·巴特勒的十字军东征。她组织了女性网络来拯救“堕落”的姐妹篇，并更有效地吸引了工人阶级的男性支持者。通过这些措施，她打算对社会下层各阶级的淫乱方面进行道德改革。巴特勒拯救“被奴役”的印度姐妹篇的计划表明了她对帝国统治的男性气质及其性别双重标准的愤怒和抗议。此外，它还意味着她希望颠覆父权权威，使妇女能够重新拥有自己的身体。少
