Abstract:Breakfast at Tiffany's is a novella by Truman Capote published in 1958. The main character, Holly Golightly, is one of Capote's best-known creations.She is a party girl whose life is full of novelty and desire. There were countless men around her and she skilfully deal with those men, trying to catch any chance to marry a rich and famous guy. Feminist existentialism, proposed by Simone de Beauvoir, emphasizes that women should honestly face to themselves and their situations,making efforts to change bad situations, so that they can participate in shaping the past world shaped by men. This paper focuses on the analysis of Holly, the heroine in Breakfast at Tiffany’s, based on the feminist existentialism to dialectically analyse Holly’s wild behavior and pure nature. Finally the author reaches the conclusion that Holly is an extremely complex girl with contradictions ---she is innocent but also secular;she went around to rely on others to meet her material needs, but still tried to maintain dignity. In the perspective of feminist existentialism, Holly compromised in the society to make a living .However , some behaviors reflected her free and independent aspects.
Keywords: Breakfast at Tiffany's ,Truman Capote , Holly Golightly, feminist existentialism,contradictions.
摘要:小说《蒂凡尼的早餐》由杜鲁门.卡波特出版于1958年。其中女主人公郝莉是他最负盛名的创作人物。郝莉是一个交际花，她的生活充满渴望与新奇。她的身边围绕着数之不尽的男人，而她可以游刃有余地在这些男人中周旋，并寻找着各种机会嫁给有钱有势的富人。西蒙娜.德.波伏娃在她所提出的女性存在主义中强调，女人需要诚实面对自我与处境，努力改变坏的处境，进而参与塑造过去一直由男人所塑造的世界。本论文将以女性存在主义为理论依据，通过郝莉野性的行为以及纯洁的内心两个对立面，结合女性存在主义中的矛盾，辨证分析郝莉的人物特点。最终得出结论：郝莉是一个充满矛盾、极其复杂的女性——她既纯真又世俗；她通过依靠他人去满足自己的物质需求，但同时又想要维持自尊。站在女性存在主义的观点来看，郝莉通过向社会妥协去维持生计，但同时她的一些行为也体现了她自我、独立的一面。
