摘要 在《使女的故事》中,主角奧芙弗雷德作為使女的掙扎是學者討論和關注的焦點,而在其續集《證詞》中,瑪格麗特‧愛特伍娓娓道來其餘高階級女性的痛苦和困境,像是嬤嬤和大主教之女兒。本文藉由米歇爾‧傅柯的權力理論為基礎,以分析《證詞》中的基列國是如何以權力技術(disciplinary techniques)治理而帶給主角們痛苦。而後本文也將透過理論所述之權力和抵抗去探討書中團結和抵抗的重要性。在愛特伍的反烏托邦世界中,權力透過各種權力技術實施和治理而有效地塑造和管理基列國人的行為,例如個體化(individualization)和規範化(normalization)。儘管權力技術有效且高效,但主角們仍舊先後以個人和群體之方式反抗基列國政權。憑藉建立關係、團結和團隊合作,主角們終能抵抗個體化及規範化並脫離基列國的統治。
In The Handmaid’s Tale, Offred’s struggles as a handmaid are the locus of discussion and attention, while in The Testaments, the plight of the Aunts and the Commander’s daughter are unveiled. The Testaments provides a whole picture depicting the suffering of the high-ranking women who speak to Atwood’s political concerns and demonstrate their methods to overcome obstacles. This thesis explores the governing techniques that bring the female protagonists struggles and suffering. It also examines the importance of solidarity and resistance to injustice and status quo in Atwood’s work with Foucault’s theory of power and resistance. In Atwood’s dystopian world, the operation and effectiveness of power are secured by various disciplinary techniques such as individualization and normalization to shape and manage Gileadeans’ behavior. Despite the effectiveness and efficiency of disciplinary techniques, the female protagonists carry out counter-conduct to resist the regime individually and collectively. With their bonds, solidarity, and teamwork, the female protagonists facilitate their liberation from Gilead’s domination.
