Abstract

Abstract:Lady Brett Ashley in The Sun Also Rises has been heavily criticized for her treatment of the male characters in the novel. Her changeable affections and reluctance to commit to stable relationships have frequently been discussed in terms of the harm her behavior inflicts on men, however little has been done to explore what it reveals about Brett herself. This article moves focus away from the wounded male egos to the social factors which underlie Brett's flirtatious behavior, unpacking the trauma which informs her desire to avoid committed romantic relationships and questioning whether the male characters' disappointed desires are always reasonable ones.
“让女人见鬼去吧”:海明威《太阳照常升起》中的轻浮与男性权利
摘要:《太阳照常升起》中布雷特·阿什利夫人对男性角色的处理饱受诟病。她多变的情感和不愿承诺稳定的关系经常被讨论为她的行为对男人造成的伤害,然而很少有人去探索这揭示了布雷特自己。这篇文章将焦点从受伤的男性自我转移到布雷特调情行为背后的社会因素,揭示了导致她渴望避免承诺的浪漫关系的创伤,并质疑男性角色失望的欲望是否总是合理的。
