摘要

Anne of Green Gables is L.M.Montgomery’s masterpiece.In the book,Anne is initially a poor,ugly and uncultivated girl,and she even doesn’t know how to pray.But she is also frank and pure and can never reconcile herself to insults.She struggles hard to protect women’s personality and dignity,and pursues self-respect and self-esteem without fear or respite.Finally,she achieves happiness.This essay discusses Anne’s character in the light of historical context,and more particularly,against a background of the rules governing women’s behaviour at the time the novel was written.What makes Anne change her attitude?Underlying the discussion is the question:does Anne of Green Gables have anything to teach adolescents today?Anne is not initially interested in conforming but gradually learns that she must do so in order to achieve happiness and harmony.Apologizing is an important part of this process.The essay focuses on five key apology scenes.In accordance with the principle of bibliotherapy,this essay demonstrates that Anne of Green Gables is a valuable model for teenage readers struggling with when,how and to what degree they should conform to social values and conventions.In the nineteenth century,women made up the majority of the reading public,when they were portrayed in literature,they were in the home.Undoubtfully,Anne of Green Gable is successfully made sense for the adolescents.It is a simple story about a child’s basic needs of a home,love,friendship and acceptance.And it is also a psychological study for adolescence to think,act and interact.
