Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS Twice Marginalized: Women's Identities in a Foreign Land; An Analysis of Jean Rhys's Wide Sargasso Sea and Amy Tan's The Joy Luck Club by WONG Ching Lun, Helen The purpose of the dissertation is to analyze the representation of women and mother- daughter relationships in Jean Rhys's Wide Sargasso Sea and Amy Tan's The Joy Luck Club. Since both texts share a common theme of marginalization in terms of ethnicity and gender, it is interesting to find out what the women's identities are in a foreign land. Through a wealth of textual evidence, the identities of the female protagonists in the foreign land are presented by analyzing the infinite power relationships, like the power relationships between mother and daughter, daughter and father, and husband and wife. It is also important to analyze of the characters in The Joy Luck Club, both Chinese and Western, and those in Wide Sargasso Sea with reference to their ethnicity, role in colonial society and social and economic power. Although the protagonists of both texts are marginalized, Rhys saw that one of the only ways for women in foreign countries to empower themselves in the face of colonial patriarchy was to look to their heritage and to other women whose solidarity empowers them. Rhys depicts the mother, Annette, as both a victim and an oppressor. It is her lack of ability to deal with the contradictions of the past and present and her reliance on the patriarchal power structure that brings about her own demise and in so doing condemns her daughter, Antoinette. 1 DOI: 10.5353/th_b3158399 Subjects: Women in literature
