内容記述 | The Tiger's Daughter (1972) is a first novel by Bharati Mukherjee, Bengali Indian American writer, who has since accomplished herself as a delegate of immigrants in the United States. The protagonist Tara Banergee Cartwright, like Mukherjee, is a Bengali Brahmin who has emigrated to the States. Through her homebound journey and stay in Calcutta after seven years' absence, Tara's ambiguity as an emigrated Brahmin woman is represented as problematic. A sensitive, intelligent, yet passive and immature person as she is, Tara goes through her inner unrest between the two cultures, while Calcutta society encounters upheaval in which the tradition seems to be threatened by the modern democratic movement. This paper analyzes how Tara's education as a Bengali Brahmin woman has resulted in her self-contradictory discrepancy as a Bengali Indian American immigrant, by examining the narrative structure of the novel, the characterization of the protagonist as a delicate woman with aborted potential for independent intelligence, and her mental commotion along with the social one in Calcutta. Tara remains an incomplete figure even at the end of the novel, which discloses the fact that Bengali Brahmin education in Calcutta functions as an imperative in the troubled young American immigrant. Tara's education has begun in Calcutta Brahmin society where it is encouraged that women should receive "Westernized" education to protect their status, however, not be truly "Westernized." It is important that their exclusive Bengali Brahmin value is passed on through education at home and in school so that they may maintain their superior posture in Calcutta society along with the specific gender roles to bolster the traditional patriarchal order. Tara falls in the dilemma between the Bengali Brahmin and American culture. She has been educated in Calcutta to follow the tradition of her caste, and sent by his father, legendary Bengali Tiger, to Vasser at the age of fifteen. She then marries an American writer, David Cartwright, becomes a Ph.D. candidate, and lives in New York-the act that theoretically outcastes her from Brahmin society. She, however, has not fully assimilated to American culture either. Thus, on her return to Calcutta alone, without David's moral support, Tara sways back and forth between Bengali Brahmin and American value, as well as between the tradition and the modernization in Calcutta. | |||||
