4、说，也是世界文学园地中的一朵奇葩，其中展现了大量的哥特色彩。本文立足于欧美文学中的哥特传统研究?吼叫山庄?的创作，作家艾米莉在人物形象和意象等方面都借鉴了哥特传统并有所打破；她凭借超乎寻常的想象力，将现实与象征、恐惧、神秘等哥特手法完美地结合在一起，给陈旧的形式注入了剧烈情感和活力，到达哥特形式与激情内容的完美统一。笔者试图从一个新的角度女性哥特来挖掘出?吼叫山庄?中尚未被挖掘出的一些新的意蕴和内涵。同时也希望通过展示魔鬼式人物和梦魇的超现实主义描写，使我们可以从女性哥特的角度解读这部小说。【关键词】?吼叫山庄?；女性哥特小说；魔鬼式人物；梦魇1.intrdutineilybrntisanen
