摘要：汤亭亭是当代美国华裔作家，她既被美国主流社会文化所排斥，又得不到多数美国华裔男性作家的认同。所以她在《女勇士》中用“鬼”表达边缘人的思想。而“鬼”也成了理解这本书的关键所在。特别是“乡村医生”这一篇描写了如中国鬼，美国鬼，墨西哥鬼，黑鬼等各种各样的鬼。通过分析这些“鬼”,揭示了这些鬼魂体现的性别和种族歧视。
本篇论文首先分别介绍一般概念中的鬼，中国鬼，美国鬼，然后通过分析“鬼”，来揭示隐含在中国传统等级社会中传统伦理道德压迫以及男尊女卑的观念对女性的压迫。同时“鬼”可以被解读为亚裔美国人遭受的种族歧视和偏见。本书通过呈现女性与“鬼”战斗，展现女性重建自己的身份，融入美国主流社会。同时，此篇论文通过分析故事中的“鬼”来表现个体与环境的分离与冲突, 并分析 “鬼”在渲染烘托故事主题上的作用。
