『속된 무리를 떠나서』에 나타난 밧세바의 여성 정체성 탐구 — 포스트콜로니얼의 페미니즘 관점에서
The purpose of this research is to search feminine identity of Bathsheba on postcolonial feminism in Thomas Hardy’s Far from the Madding Crowd. During Thomas Hardy’s times, the setting for English social change was the industrialization through rapid scientific developments. In a society like this, the social lives of the contemporary women were limited because of exclusive values of social status, sexual ideology, education, religion, marriage, gender difference, and confinement of the class, yet Bathsheba who is suspicious of the contemporary male-centered society restructures her own status and feminine identity, breaking the conventional patterns of the male and the female. The romance of Bathsheba is made up of such main components as work, money, social status, and masculinity in which woman is considered as an economic subject of contemporary society. In this view, this study is to analyze the “Androgyny” of Bathsheba from the viewpoint of the postcolonial feminism, by comprehensively understanding feminine identity of Bathsheba in Far from the Madding Crowd.
