Abstract  F. Scott. Fitzgerald (1896-1940), a famous writer in American literature, is regarded as one of the most important novelists of Jazz Age. He endeavors to create dozens of American flappers in his works. These flappers are so characteristic in Jazz Age that many critics pay close attention to them. This thesis is aimed to interpret his fictional flappers in The Great Gatsby and Tender Is the Night and reveal the process of awakening of women consciousness. In The Great Gatsby, flappers represented by Daisy, Jorden and Myrtle are awakening but vulnerable to the patriarchy, they are conservative and perplexed, simply because they are not mentally strong and economically independent. In Tender Is the Night, victimized but more conscious about subjectivity, Nicole and Rosemary, the representative flappers in the novel, relatively gain their independence through a harsh battle against patriarchy. The writer’s personal life experience and the social background at that time underlie the change of these characters’ female awareness to be more mature.31301

摘 要弗朗西斯•斯科特•菲茨杰拉德是美国文学史上的一位著名作家,被认为是爵士时代最重要的作家之一。在他的作品中创造了很多美国当时的时髦女郎形象。这些女性形象是爵士时代的真实写照,也被评论家们广泛关注着。本文的主题是通过对《了不起的盖茨比》和《夜色温柔》两部小说中女性人物的分析来揭示出女性意识觉醒的过程。在《了不起的盖茨比》中,以黛西,乔丹和梅特尔为代表的女性虽然已经觉醒,但是仍然受制于父权文化。她们仍然是保守并且困惑的,这是因为她们的心理还不够强大,经济上也没有获得独立。在《夜色温柔》中,尼科尔和罗斯玛丽,尽管她们还是父权制的受害者,但已经有了自我主体意识上的觉醒。她们通过对父权制顽固的抗争获得了相对的独立性。追究这些人物的女性意识越来越强的原因,作者的个人生活经历及其当时的社会背景功不可没。

The Awakening of Female Awareness in The Great Gatsby and Tender Is the Night
Introduction
F.Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940), one of the important writers in the history of American literature in the 20th century, is known as the outstanding spokesman of Jazz Age. He, along with Hemingway and Faulkner, are regarded as “three kings” in American literature in the 20th century. His life is short and legendary. During his more than twenty years of writing career, he creates five novels and hundreds of short stories. Incorporating success and failure of his own life, his writings authentically and vividly reflect American social landscapes and values in 1920s and 1930s. He profoundly depicts that the young who are regarded as “lost generation” pursue American Dream madly after World War Ⅰ. And this “dream” is doomed to disillusionment. It can be seen in his two masterpieces: The Great Gatsby and Tender Is the Night.
