《黛洛维夫人》与《莎菲女士的日记》中女主人公形象的对比分析

摘　要
克拉丽莎与莎菲在世界文坛上是两个必不可少的女性人物形象。两人既有女性主义意识,又有一些不同之处。《戴洛维夫人》的五十二岁的女主人公克拉丽莎的丈夫是一个英国保守党.她本人没有接受过正规的教育，她的文化水平比较低。她为人冷漠、虚荣、有反叛心理。这个关于伦敦一天生活的故事可以看作是她尝试寻求完美的个人的历程，但结果她并没有达成愿望。莎菲是《莎菲女士的日记》的女主人公,一个来自封建家庭的二十岁少女。她做人也很虚荣.尽管她还没有进入大学学习,但她已经可以称作一名知识分子了。这部由三十四篇日记组成的短篇小说可以当做莎菲的爱情的记录。
由于她们都为人们所熟知,所以国内外对她们的研究也很多。以往，人们对这两位人物的研究主要是从文化、历史、心理与女性主义视角等方面来进行的.有了这些研究资料的辅助,对比分析克拉丽莎与莎菲也就更加容易了。
本论文主要是对比分析这两个主人公。文章分为三部分。第一部分是大致介绍两位主人公及她们所在的两部小说。第二部分深入对比分析两个人物的性格特点、恋爱观与婚姻观、相同与不同之处.第三部分主要分析克拉丽莎与莎菲两位人物形象所引起的社会反响.

Abstract
Clarissa and Sophie are two indispensable female protagonists appearinging分呢rs ………ts’ attitudes towards in the literature world. Both of them boast feminism ideas, yet have some differences. Clarissa, the main character of Mrs. Dalloway, is fifty—two years old and married to a British Conservative。 Her education level is low, since she has not received a formal education。 She is cold, full of vanity, and rebel. Through the story of one day’s life in London, she is trying to search for an integrated identity and she fails。 The heroine of Miss Sophie’s Diary， Sophie, is twenty years old and comes from a federal family. She is also vanity。 She can be called an intellectual, though she has not entered university. The short novel， which consists of thirty-four diaries， can be seen as a record of Sophie’s love。
Because two of them are familiar to people, a large amount of studies of these two are carried on at home and abroad. People have made a large amount of studies on them from many angles—culture, history， psychology, and feminist viewpoint。 With the help of these study materials， it is possible to comparatively analyze Clarissa and Sophie.
This thesis is mainly to comparatively analyze the two heriones. The paper consists of three parts。 The first part is an overview of the two main characters and the novels they belong to。 Then, the next part will deeply analyze the two protagonists’ characters， attitudes toward love and marriage， and similarities and differences。 The third part focuses on the reverberation from the two authors’ characterization of Clarissa and Sophie.

Key words:Clarissa Sophie Character Comparative Analysis

Introduction

It is just like the author of Mrs。 Dalloway， Virginia Woolf， Clarissa lives in a turbulent society and influenced by the changing views of the world after World War One. She is no longer willing to be a traditional woman with the Victorian belief and value。 Instead, she is searching for her identity, hoping herself can become independent。 Mrs。 Dalloway no longer confines the narrow concerns of marriage and domestic roles of the conventional female； it shows a dynamic status of Woolf’s thought。 In her writing， women’s experience is always put in。 “In this book, I have almost too many ideas. I want to give life and death, sanity and insanity: I want to criticize the social system, and to show it at work， at its most intense." [1］ Sophie is one of Ding Ling’s most successful protagonists. Among her works, Miss Sophie’s Diary makes Ding ling well—known。 Influenced by the May Fourth Movement, Sophie rebels the traditional love and marriage ideas。 She hates and scoffs at everything, but could not find a proper way to achieve her aspiration。 After her failure on love， she suffers pain。 Sophie is a representative of Chinese women who begin to change their conception of being a female in that era。
Therefore， to analyze the two comparatively can do some contribution to form a harmonious society。

1. Brief information of heroines and novels
1.1 Clarissa and Mrs。 Dalloway
Clarissa Dalloway is the main female character in Mrs. Dalloway. She is a middle-class woman who has married to a British Conservative， Richard Dalloway. Elizabeth Dalloway is her daughter， Sally Seton her female friend， and Peter Walsh her former lover.
Mrs. Dalloway is written by Virginia Woolf。 This novel displays one day of Clarissa Dalloway’s life from the morning to the night. One morning, the housewife Clarissa walks out to buy some flowers for a party that she is about to host in the evening。 When she arrives home， her former lover Peter Walsh comes to see her unexpectedly。 Then they talk about the past。 While Peter asks Clarissa whether she feels happy with Richard and before she could answer it, her daughter Elizabeth comes in. After a while， Peter says good-bye to Clarissa and Elizabeth and he leaves their house。 Then， the author leads us to see Septimus Warren Smith， a veteran in World War One， who has become mentally ill during the war。 Septimus is afraid of doctors in that he has an illusion that every doctor may control his soul. At the same time, Richard buys some flowers after he leaves Lady Bruton's home。 He wants to give these flowers to his wife and tell her he loves her。 Following Richard's footsteps, the writer leads readers to Clarissa's party. The guests come there one by one。 Then the party begins。 Doctor William Bradshaw arrives in the middle of the party and his wife says it is because one patient, Septimus， committed suicide. Hearing this sad news， Clarissa quietly leaves her guests and comes into her private little room to think about the young man’s death。 Peter Walsh and Sally Seton could not find Clarissa and wonder where she is. At the end of the story， Clarissa walks out from her room and rejoins her guests。

1.2 Sophie and Miss Sophie’s Diary
The main female character of Miss Sophie’s Diary has an exotic name， i.e. Sophie. The twenty years old Sophie’s hometown is Shanghai。 The reason why she lives in a hotel in Beijing alone is that she has TB and receives treatment in Beijing. Though she is a patient， she still wants to experience love。 Wei is her cousin， Yu Fang and Yun Lin her friends, and Ling Jishi a Singaporean she loves.
Miss Sophie’s Diary is one of Ding Ling’s earlier works. It is formed of thirty –four diaries。 This short novel can be seemed as the record of Sophie’s pursuit of Ling Jishi, or a mature journey of Sophie. The end of the story is that Sophie decides to give no chance to Ling Jishi, leave Beijing, live and die quietly。

2. A comparative analysis between Clarissa and Sophie
2。1 The female protagonists' characters
Human beings have complex characters. So, it is impossible to analyze a man's all characters thoroughly。 However， one’s main personal characters could be examined by his reactions towards people and things. Here， Clarissa and Sophie’s characters will be examined in this way。

2.1.1 Clarissa's character
Clarissa is an independent-minded woman。 She always holds the definite views of her own in her life。 After read the novel thoroughly， one may find out that Clarissa actually and always loves Peter。 When Peter is not in London， she can even remember Peter’s sayings about cabbages; after Peter returns and visits her， she talks about the past with him。 Yet, while Clarissa eats with Richard before they get married and sits with Richard after they have married many years, she talks little to her husband and feels the room is so empty！ However， Clarissa still sacrifices her love and chooses to marry Richard. Since she thinks that “in marriage a little license, a little independence must be between people living together day in day out in the same house which Richard gave her, and she gave him. But with Peter everything had to be shared” ［2］ Without Richard’s request， Clarissa decides to host a party for him. Although Clarissa asks her servants to help her to prepare the party， she buys flowers in person. She walks alone in London。 This is different from Lucrezia and Evelyn， whose husbands accompanied them. What’s more, Clarissa owns a private little room in Richard and her house. This is really important for a married woman to gain her psychological independence。
Clarissa is a woman who holds firm principles。 This can be easily proved when she breaks with Peter。 After Peter have spoken “tell me the truth" [2] for hours， Clarissa answers “It’s no use。 It’s no use. It’s the end" [2] and she does not change her mind. The heart-broken Peter joins the army， leaves Britain and goes to India. He writes many letters to her, yet she does not read them or write back. She does not want to give Peter any chance。 As a result， she even does not know when Peter will come back。 When Peter drops by unexpectedly， Clarissa is “so calm， so cold, so intent on her dress”。 [2] She is really a woman that has unswerving principles。
Clarissa has an inferiority complex in her mind。 When Richard Dalloway is invited by Lady Bruton to dinner， Clarissa thinks about this tiny thing as a huge business over and over again。 She has tried so hard to be accepted by the upper-middle class people， yet Lady Bruton invites Mr。 Dalloway to dinner and does not invites Mrs. Dalloway. For Clarissa， that is a refusal of allowing her to enter the upper—middle class’s social circle. There is no doubt that she spends a lot of time to torture herself on this stuff。 Another woman， Miss Kilman， also lets Clarissa be self—abased。 Miss Kilman is Elizabeth’s history teacher。 She looks plain, but clever. Miss Kilman despises Clarissa from the bottom of her heart。 She thinks Clarissa lives in the least worth social class that has a smattering of culture. Miss Kilman makes Clarissa feel that she （Clarissa） is so small.
Clarissa is an impenetrability. Once, Clarissa introduced Peter to her friends. She spoke as if she and Peter had never met before. Then, in the middle of the party， she got up with an air of being offended， made some excuse, and went off, alone. When Peter visits her， talks with her, and wants to hold her hand， Elizabeth comes in。 Clarissa says, “On, here is my Elizabeth。 ［2］” Both Peter and Elizabeth feel her insincerity when she says this。
Clarissa is an honest person. She once admitted to Peter that she cared for status and society very much. One can even get her to own up this if he is willing to take some trouble. Clarissa expresses that she hates frumps, fogies, and failures, like Peter.

2.1。2 Sophie's character
Sophie is an independent-minded girl。 She knows what kind of man is her prefect Mr。 Right。 As for her cousin, Wei， Sophie knows he loves her for a long time but she has no feeling about him。 So， no matter how hard her friends try to let she love Wei， Sophie would not accept his love。 When Sophie finds out Ling Jishi has a mean and low soul, and does not deserve her love， she decides to go south, live and die quietly. Sophie does not return home。 She would rather choose death to keep independence。
Sophie is a willful lady。 When she loves Ling Jishi helplessly but the Singaporean does not drop by, she finds an excuse and moves to a moist house that near Ling Jishi. Sophie totally ignores the doctor's advice。
Sophie is, sometimes, difficult to understand。 Once， Sophie invited Yu Fang and Yun Lin to see a movie, but the two came with Jian Ru. This upset Sophie very much. Since Sophie did not like Jian Ru and Sophie has not expected her coming. Then， Sophie found an excuse and left the three at the theatre.
Sophie is a good and honest person. She does not cheat Wei’s feelings, and honestly tells him that she does not deserve his love.
Sophie is a sentimental girl。 Yun is Sophie’s elder sister who has married to Wei’s elder brother. Yun's marriage is extremely unhappy. Sophie read Yun’s letters and feels sorry for her。 She even drinks hard after keeps off it for half a year because of her illness。 She drinks so much that she spits out blood. Her friends send her to the hospital when they visit her the next day。
Sophie is depressed about her life. At the very beginning, she lives in a hotel alone for recovering. The room makes her feel boring. Every morning, she wakes up to face the four white—brushed walls and the white-brushed ceiling, reads through newspapers systematically， or sits by a stove and gets into a bad temper。 Her love story is also an upsetting one. She loves Ling Jishi’s appearance and hates his inside, which makes her feel more pain。 Just as Mao Dun's comment, Sophie is a “心灵上负着时代苦闷的创伤的女性的叛逆的绝叫者” ［4］
