摘要

As Mansfield's representative masterpiece, The Garden Party contains her critique on the bourgeoisie. This essay argues that Laura Sheridan is assimilating into the bourgeoisie, taking up Mrs. Sheridan's role as a matriarch, while she is struggling with the waking sympathies on working class. By depicting the process of assimilating, along with the interference of aesthetics and poli?tics, Mansfield reveals her critique on the bourgeoisie which shows indifference towards the lower class.
