초록
In “Bliss,” Katherine Mansfield shows her use of free indirect discourse (FID). Mansfield’s FID expresses the dazzling feeling of bliss that the main character Bertha Young thinks she shares with her new female friend Pearl Fulton. The origin of Bertha’s bliss lies mysteriously hidden. At the end of the story she realizes with a shock that her feeling is not the “bliss” coming from Pearl Fulton, but “desire” for her husband Harry. She also discovers that Harry and Pearl Fulton are lovers, which means Pearl shares her own unique bliss, and the shared mood has the same origin for each love for Harry. In this short fiction, Mansfield builds up her own style of FID which does not construct sentences or phrases with definite meanings. Mansfield’s FID thus delays and interrupts the revelation of the veiled story of the text, the hidden love triangle among Bertha, Pearl, and Harry. Bertha seems to conceal the self-deceptive truth of her life. By pretending to experience a confused feeling of bliss and desire, Bertha seems to maintain her life of self-deception. The result is two different interpretations: first, Bertha is a self-deceived sympathizer of patriarchy; second, Bertha’s self-deception is the result of alienation by patriarchy
Abstract
In “Bliss,” Katherine Mansfield shows her use of free indirect discourse (FID). Mansfield’s FID expresses the dazzling feeling of bliss that the main character Bertha Young thinks she shares with her new female friend Pearl Fulton. The origin of Bertha’s bliss lies mysteriously hidden. At the end of the story she realizes with a shock that her feeling is not the “bliss” coming from Pearl Fulton, but “desire” for her husband Harry. She also discovers that Harry and Pearl Fulton are lovers, which means Pearl shares her own unique bliss, and the shared mood has the same origin for each love for Harry. In this short fiction, Mansfield builds up her own style of FID which does not construct sentences or phrases with definite meanings. Mansfield’s FID thus delays and interrupts the revelation of the veiled story of the text, the hidden love triangle among Bertha, Pearl, and Harry. Bertha seems to conceal the self-deceptive truth of her life. By pretending to experience a confused feeling of bliss and desire, Bertha seems to maintain her life of self-deception. The result is two different interpretations: first, Bertha is a self-deceived sympathizer of patriarchy; second, Bertha’s self-deception is the result of alienation by patriarchy
