自我物化于男权机制下的女人——《胎记》中乔治亚娜之死的深层原因探析

《胎记》表面上描写的是凡人追求完美而遭受挫败的寓言,但实际上是记录了一个血淋淋的“杀妻”事件,一个男性社会机制对女性的物化及女性自我物化的悲剧。换一句话说,《胎记》不仅触及并揭露的是男性社会欺凌、扼杀女性的罪恶,而且还对女性自我否定和自我物化,自愿放弃主体地位的奴性进行了批判。     

霍桑的女权主义意识在《红字》中的体现

根据一些女权主义批评理论,霍桑的女权主义意识促使他在《红字》中塑造了一个反叛女性。在《红字》中,霍桑将这种意识融入到了他描绘的反派女主人公海斯特的内心世界。霍桑通过揭示海斯特的社会边缘地位,反映了在清教社会中普遍存在的厌女意识。霍桑还谴责那种源于男权意识对妇女不平等的待遇。为了恢复女性的主体性地位,霍桑通过他的故事情节和对男女主人公的描写,彻底毁灭了男权文化中的双重对立理念。     

拉康式审视下的红字——从《被窃的信》到《红字》

霍桑是美国19世纪颇有争议的重要作家之一。当代霍桑研究开始指向象征主义研究,并开始大量引用现代及后现代结构主义理论。本文将以拉康对爱伦.坡的短篇小说《被窃的信》的解构为借鉴,以索绪尔、拉康和德里达的符号学理论为指导,对霍桑的成名作《红字》中的表征——红字,进行解构,并探索此独特表征所产生的审美效应,即能指"A"的位移所赋予文本的现代感、象征感和节奏感。

A Judeo-Christian rejoinder to Bramel and Friend's Marxist critique of the capitalist "Hawthorne effect": Comment.

Comments on Bramel and Friend's (August 1981) critique of the classic "Hawthorne effect" studies from a Marxist point of view. Bramel and Friend attempt to answer the question, What keeps the myth going? (i.e., What keeps the myth of the "Hawthorne effect" alive in at least some textbooks?). Their answer, in which they follow Ehrenreich and Ehrenreich (1977), is that psychologists, as members of the "professional managerial class," are allied with management against labor to assure "the reproduction of capitalist culture" by propagating the myth of the laboring class as composed of persons who are "relatively ignorant, narrow, and unintelligent" (p. 877). They conclude, "why should [psychologists] bother to go back to examine the basic research documents if the authoritative interpretations appear so consonant with their cognitive world and material (economic, power) interests?" (p. 877). I would like to provide a Judeo-Christian answer to their Marxist question: Textbook authors in psychology are all too often guilty of one of the seven deadly sins--sloth.

爱伦坡与霍桑小说创作比较研究

作家爱伦坡其人其文的特立独行一直受到学界关注,对他与同时期其他作家一致之处却鲜有论及。事实上爱伦坡与霍桑均身处美国文艺复兴时期的南方,个人经历也颇为相似,这使得他们在题材、技巧、风格等诸多方面体现出共性。

The Hawthorne experiments and the introduction of Jean Piaget in American industrial psychology, 1929-1932.

The Hawthorne interview program between 1929 and 1932 was one of the most significant industrial studies in the United States. The Hawthorne researchers applied Jean Piaget's clinical method in their extensive interviews with tens of thousands of workers. Chiefly responsible for the program's methodology was Elton Mayo, an Australian who saw interviewing as a means to promote social cooperation. Previous discussions of the Hawthorne experiments have ignored the influence of Piaget in the social sciences. This article provides an account of Mayo's and the Hawthorne researchers' efforts to fuse Piaget's innovation with burgeoning American industrial psychology. The endeavor was not an isolated event but rather drew on the theories and practice of Janet-Piaget psychology, on the support of the Laura Spelman Rockefeller Memorial Foundation, and on a discourse among social scientists about Piaget's work.
