Abstract Little Women is the masterpiece of American female writer—Louisa May Alcott。 The novel is based on American Civil War and shows readers a real world of female growth。 The thesis aims at analyzing the growth of the March sisters in Little Women from the prospective of feminist。 Under the background of the development of feminism movement and in a warm family environment, they change from subordination to independence, from submission to the traditional view of marriage to the pursuit of a marriage based on love, and from compromise with the patriarchal society to the pursuit of a harmonious gender relationship。 In a sense, the “little women” are not “little”, but the women of self-reliance。 Based on the analysis of the positive growth process of the March sisters, this thesis encourages both contemporary and future women generations to brave enough to challenge the traditional ideas as well as pursue their real independence, so as to realize their value of life。 92757

摘要《小妇人》是路易莎·梅·奥尔科特的代表作。这部小说以美国南北战争为背景，给读者展现了一个真实的女性成长世界。本文旨在从女性主义角度对《小妇人》中马奇姐妹的成长历程进行分析，解读马奇姐妹在女权运动发展的背景下和温暖的家庭环境中所实现的三方面的成长。她们从从属于家庭走向追求独立自主；从屈服于传统的婚姻观走向追求以爱情为基础的婚姻；从对父权社会的妥协走向追求和谐平等的两性关系。从某种意义上说，“小妇人”并不渺小，而是一个个自立自强的女性。本文通过对马奇姐妹积极向上的成长历程的分析，鼓励当代及后代女性敢于挑战传统观念，去追求真正的自立，进而实现自己的人生价值。

Feminism has been developed and promoted in modern times。 Under the promotion of feminists, the purpose of the feminism movement is often reached by raising the rights of women or challenging life experiences。 They fight against the exploitation and oppression of the traditional culture, so as to improve the status of women as well as women’s legitimate rights。 In the novel, there are quite a number of feminist views。 At the beginning of the novel, an apparent characteristic is that the mother in the novel assumes entire responsibility to accompany the four girls and teach them to deal with the trials of life and help them grow up happily。 Alcott has set a new image of women with the awareness of independence, equality together with self-improvement。 The novel is filled with feminist consciousness and it plays an exemplary role in supporting both contemporary and future women generations to realize their value of life。  从女性主义角度看《小妇人》中马奇姐妹的成长历程:http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_200481.html
