註釋
The Bell Jar, a 1963 novel by the American poet and prose writer Sylvia Plath,and The Golden Notebook, a 1962 novel by the British Nobel Prize-winningauthor Doris Lessing, both anticipate the second wave of Anglo-American feminism in important ways, even though they were published several years before the movement started. This thesis analyzes the problematic relation of the two works and their authors to Anglo-American second-wave feminism, focusing on how they anticipate the Womenʼs Movement as well as on how they fail to reach the same level of feminist consciousness. Attention is also paid to the differences between the two novels: The Bell Jar, a precursor to the consciousness-raising novel, anticipates American liberal feminism while The Golden Notebook, a work of feminist metafiction, anticipates British socialist feminism.
