張愛玲의 작품 속 가정의 그림자 ―封建가정과 新女性 장아이링

Abstract

Most of Eileen Chang’ novels revolve around family affairs. However, it is hard to find the warmth, stability, and unconditional love that we usually think of when we think of the word family in her novels. Rather, it has cool and pale colors, and this aspect of her work is very closely related to her unhappy childhood and family history. In order to closely grasp the psychology of Eileen Chang, the subject of creation, this thesis looked into her childhood and dark family history. First, the psychological effect of the parents' upbringing environment on the formation of Eileen Chang’ personality was examined closely. In addition, her work, which is considered to be closely related to the process of forming her own personality, was analyzed by focusing on the psychology of her characters and the creative psychology of her writer. Next, through the marriage and divorce of her patriarchal father and her mother, who was a new woman, the conflict and mixture of old and new cultures Eileen Chang’ experienced was examined. As Western culture penetrates into the lives of Chinese people who have long been confined within the frame of feudal ideology, cracks are created, and the values they have previously held are losing their place. I looked into how the writer describes the life of the artist and what the nature of the story he is telling and the essence of the story he wants to tell through his work.
