1. 研究目的与意义(文献综述)

with the progress of the society, the social status of women has been improved. and the feminist consciousness has already been awakened. facing the phenomena of male-female inequality, women start to fight, rather than suffer it in silence as they used to. women have come to realize that they can do more than just give birth. they want to be the masters of their marriage and refuse to be the machine of bearing children. the times that women were at men’s beck and call had gone. women have their pursuit and ambition, such as a decent job. today, more and more females have the ability to make a living. they no more rely on their husbands or fathers. in addition, increasing rights are given back to females. females can receive education just like males. females have more freedom and rights to choose what life they want to lead.

in the troublous times of 1960s, the movement for women’s rights soared to unprecedented heights with the development of civil rights movement. lots of works mirroring the awakening of feminist consciousness came out, mainly depicting the abuse and hard situation of women. but then, movements for women’s rights started to split up. some radical feminists ostracized all males, and they advocated using homosexual to improve the women’s hard situation. the meaning of feminism went bad. however, some other feminists quickly realized that females must awaken themselves so that they could change their social images and improve the position. and alice walker is just the one who wants to awaken feminist’s consciousness. as a black female writer, alice tries to express the awareness of black people, who are in a white- centered society, and the awakening of females, who are in a male-centered society. and she doesn’t idealize the image of black people. she just writes the truth. this american black woman writer has many literary works on the subject of feminism. among her works, the color purple is the most excellent one to express the awakening of feminist consciousness. through studying the color purple, the paper will illustrate how black women, in the period of post colony, get rid of the double oppression---racial discrimination and sexual discrimination---and achieve their self-worth, and how they complete themselves and awaken their feminist consciousness. when dealing with the conflict between females and males, alice walker deeply analyses the ideology and psychology of the black people. she encourages women to seek their identities and achieve independence through fighting for equality and freedom. the color purple is the perfect one to show the subject of feminist consciousness’ awakening.

in china, the studies about alice walker’s works are not adequate. translation and feminism are the major studying points. by contrast, foreign scholars have lots of researches on the works of alice walker. everyday use and the color purple, the two masterpieces of alice walker, are mostly used to tell the awakening of feminist consciousness. besides, some scholars analyze the color purple from racism, sexism, the liberation of women and other aspects.
