7、述Literature ReviewSister Carrie has been a stir and studied widely by scholars from all over the world since its publication. Different scholars have different understandings about it. Some interprets it from American feminist perspective. Beauvoir Simones is one of them. In his The Second Sex, publ
8、ished in 1954, he analyzes womans different situation in different life phrase, including childhood, puberty, sex enlightment phrase after-marriage, being a mother and growing old and makes judgements on potential predicament she may encounters, such as becoming a homo-sexual or famous star. The aut

Finally she points out that the only road to liberation is to become independent. He emphasized that only by improving economic status, can woman be actually equal with
10、man in a male-dominated society. Susman Warren published Culture as history: the Transformation of American Society in Twentieth Century in 1984. It is one of the seminal books that made popular culture a central concern of American historians. With amazing creativity, clarity, and wit, Warren Susma
11、n (1927-1985) takes us on a provocative tour of the highlights of American culture. By looking at all types of 20th-century culturehighbrow, lowbrow, and middlebrowSusman shows how culture itself has become a battleground for competing visions of American life. Fourteen essays include such topics as
12、 the nature of American conservatism, the cultural contradictions of a consumer society, and the role of the urban experience in the development of American culture. In his opinion, people are all influenced by the industrial development and consumerist society, which is an apparent feature exhibite

Ruth Lister argues for a new feminist notion of citizenship, one that can accommodate difference. Lister argues that ci
14、tizenship has traditionally been a tool of social and political exclusion, inequality, and xenophobia. How, then, she asks, can it lend itself to an inclusive analysis and to politics able to accommodate difference? And how can it offer a solid foundation for progressive, nondiscriminatory policymak
15、ing? Addressing these difficult questions, Lister draws on a range of disciplines and a burgeoning international literature on citizenship. To pinpoint the important theoretical issues that they raise, Lister recasts traditional thinking about the concept of citizenship, exploring its political and
16、policy implications for women in all their diversity. Themes of inclusion and exclusion (at the national and international level), rights and participation, inequality and difference are thus brought to the fore in the development of a woman-friendly theory and praxis of citizenship. This book provi

It will be of particular interest and relevance to students in a range of disciplines - including womens studies, political science, sociology, and public policy studies - as well as activists and policymakers. Karen J. warren publishes ecological feminis

It addresses basic questions about the conceptual underpinnings of women-nature connections, and emphasizes the importance of seeing sexism and the exploitation of the environment
19、 as parallel forms of domination. Ecological Feminism is enriched by the inclusion of essays which take differing views of the importance and nature of ecofeminism. Donald Pizer publishes New Essays on Sister Carrie in 2007. The introduction by Donald Pizer describes in detail the biographical and h

The four original essays in the volume not only touch on long-established approaches to Sister Carrie but also reflect a number of the concerns of recent scholarly and critical movements.

Sister Carrie juxtaposes rise to become a celebrity of a country girl and degradation of an affluent manager to a homeless beggar and finally resorts to suicidal. However, popularized commercialism and patriarchal thoughts imposes neg

He is one of the most extraordinary literary figures in America history of 20th century literature.
35、 He published his first novel, Sister Carrie in Nov.8, 1900, which was the first masterpiece of the American naturalistic movement.

Many reviewers views it as “gloomy” and “unhealthful” because the heroine, engages in sexual relationships without suffering the poverty and social downfall that were suppos
