摘要
爱丽丝•沃克是一位著名的黑人女性作家。《紫色》是她最著名的作品,自这部作品出版以来引起了很多评论家和读者的关注,因为这部作品不仅涉及了种族歧视的问题,也提及了女权主义的问题。
与其他作家不同的是,爱丽丝•沃克不仅是看到了黑人女性的自我觉醒,还关注了女性之间的友情和黑人女性心中的信仰。本文通过分析《紫色》,去观察黑人女性的自我觉醒过程,在种族歧视和男权主义的双重压迫下,女主角西里由忍受到自我认识,最后到自我觉醒的精神状态的改变,冲破了种族歧视和男权主义两道精神枷锁。
本文从心理、社会、文化、信仰等方面来分析黑人女性如何在她们地位受压迫的时代突破双重枷锁。西丽的自我觉醒不仅激励黑人女性,而且对当今社会女性也有鼓励的作用。本文旨在通过对《紫色》的分析,激励女性读者,并让男性读者有一个更正确看待女性地位的态度。

ABSTRACT
Alice Walker is one of the greatest contemporary Afro-American writers. The Color Purple is the most famous of her works and since it was published, many critics and readers are interested in it, because it talks not only about the racial discrimination but also about the feminism.
Different from other authors, Alice Walker not only sees black female awakening, but also pays attention to the friendship between women and black women’s believes. In this paper, through the analysis of The Color Purple by observing the self-awakening progress of black women in the double oppression of racial discrimination and male chauvinism, the heroine Celie is found to have changed in her mental state from enduring to self-awareness, and finally breaking the two mental shackles.
This article analyzes how the black women break the double yokes in the era that they are enslaved from psychological, social, cultural and devotional views. Celie’s self-consciousness encourages not only black women but also modern women. This article aims to stimulate female readers, and gives a correct manner to male readers about the social status of females.
