摘要 奧斯汀的小說並非以對身體的描敘聞名。相反地,由於奧斯汀對道德與禮節等抽象概念的重視,她的作品似乎甚少著墨於具體的身體描寫。但在奧斯汀最後一本完成的小說《勸導》中,我們卻可以發現各式各樣對身體的移動與狀態的描寫。本論文旨在分析小說中對身體的描敘與說明奧斯汀藉由它們所傳遞的文化訊息。
本論文第一部分將討論《勸導》中男女主角的身體狀態為什麼(不)受到其他角色重視,並解釋身體與社會地位的關係。第二部分分析小說中身體與情感的連結。小說中女主角受到侷限的身體,其實是和她壓抑的心理息息相關的。透過檢視女主角身體受到的種種桎梏,我們可以發現奧斯汀對當時女性無法自由表達情感的看法。論文第三部分將著重於疾病與幸福的連結,我會將奧斯汀在小說中對於幸福的相關描寫做分類,以找出對於奧斯丁來說理想的幸福型態。
Jane Austen’s novels are not especially renowned for representations of bodies. In fact, specializing in dramatizing such abstract notions, morality and propriety, Austen’s novels seem to show little interest in discussing with concrete details the role bodies play in her characters’ daily life. But Austen’s last finished novel, Persuasion, frequently draws our attention to various bodies, their movement and their conditions. This dissertation seeks to analyze the representations of bodies in Persuasion and uncover the messages Austen invest in them.
Chapter One examines the extent to which the physical presence of the novel’s hero and heroine is noticed or ignored by other characters. I argue that bodies in this novel carry social significance, in the sense that one’s social status can be inferred from the degree his/her body attracts attention. Chapter Two examines the relationship between bodies and emotions in Persuasion. By demonstrating how Anne Elliot’s circumscribed physical movement mirrors the inability of her feeling to travel to Wentworth and vice versa, I show how social expectations in Austen’s time affect both a woman’s body and mind. Chapter Three investigates the connection between illness and happiness in Persuasion. I argue that the representation of illness in Persuasion reflects Austen’s understanding of the nature of genuine happiness.
