6、的女性主義。羅伯特布朗在的兩首詩中《我的前公爵夫人》和《波菲利雅的情人》總有一個(gè)女人追求女權(quán)主義并試圖反對(duì)男權(quán)主義。這篇論文試圖從女性主義這個(gè)角度對(duì)羅伯特布朗寧的《我最后的公爵夫人》和《波菲利雅的情人》這兩首詩進(jìn)行分析從而得出一個(gè)結(jié)論女性試圖反對(duì)男性主義和尋求女性主義。男權(quán)主義的概念就是認(rèn)為男尊女卑。這是與性別歧視和厭女癥密切以及與其他形式的認(rèn)為女性不如男性觀點(diǎn)相關(guān)尤其是在智力上。①埃德加艾倫坡曾經(jīng)說過最有詩意的詩歌的主題是一個(gè)女人的死

7、亡。布朗寧通過兩個(gè)女人的死亡成功突出了男權(quán)主義:公爵夫人和波菲利雅。同時(shí)他的戲劇獨(dú)白的寫作方法我的前公爵夫人和神波菲利雅的情人秘變成神秘和奇跡驅(qū)使我們看到底層男人對(duì)女人的壓迫。1.IntroductionThesetwopoemswiththemethodof“DramaticMonologue”isakindofnarrativepoeminwhichonepersonspeakstothelistenerswhokeepssilen
