Impregnation, Anguish and Exuberance:
The Repertoire of Chinese American Women’s
Transformation in Amy Tan’s The Joy Luck Club and
The Kitchen God’s Wife
Abstract
The repertoire of transformation is crucial for Tan’s Chinese American
women to the mapping out of their positions and searching for their
subjectivity. In this dissertation, I will argue that in Tan’s The Joy Luck
Club and The Kitchen God’s Wife, these Chinese American women tend to become
masters in the postmodern and post-colonial contexts. By possessing the
subjective, the recognizable and the powerful positions, these Chinese
American women encounter their challenges, constitute their identifications
and reconstruct their histories. The phases of impregnation, anguish and
exuberance in the repertoire of transformation enable these Chinese American
women to experience, recognize and complement their positions in both Chinese
and American societies, proposing several significant issues in the postmodern
and post-colonial world and conjuring up the multi-faceted perspectives of the
eclectic culture.
The introductory chapter includes four postmodern perspectives and
theories which foreground the subsequent argument: Jean Baudrillard’s concept
of simulations, hyperreality and implosion; Jacques Lacan’s psychoanalysis on
the Imaginary, the Symbolic and the Real; Michel Foucault’s power/knowledge
and Friedrich Nietzsche’s the will to power. Different positive and negative
criticisms help me to analyze the complicated structures and multiple
narratives in Tan’s novels. Furthermore, I will expound that The Joy Luck
Club and The Kitchen God’s Wife share the same subject matters which are
adequate for me to be in the full-scale of re-interpretation and re-inscription
in the novels.
Chapter Two highlights the phase of impregnation which centers on three
interrelated themes: a false concept of masculinity; the misrecognition of Tan
’s Chinese American women’s subjectivity; and the idea of docile bodies. In
Tan’s first two novels, the Chinese mothers receive, accept and obey the
doctrines of their elders without resistance or any comment. They are raised
and taught to be docile bodies in their patriarchal society. Their American-
born daughters submit themselves to the simulations of American ideal models
without question. They are educated and trained to be docile bodies in a
white male dominated society. They only suffer from their misrecognition.
The main concern of Chapter Three consists in the masculine myth, the function
of language and the idea of “the death of God” in the phase of anguish. Tan
’s Chinese American women confront the deepest, painful tragedies in their
marriages; the language barriers of their cultural conflicts and the
declaration of non-existence of God in their beliefs. They are encouraged to
articulate silence and to express themselves as desiring productions, speaking
subjects and autonomous individuals.
Chapter Four analyzes how a will to transgression and transcendence is
operated on a life of exuberance for these Chinese American women. Undergoing
the third phase of transformation, I will tend to explore these Chinese
American women’s potential power and energies to involve revolutions in their
lifestyles, discourses, bodies and sexuality and, thus, to achieve the wish-
fulfillment of their own. Nietzschean concept of the overman sets up a model
for these Chinese American women to embody their personalities. Possessing
the will to power, these Chinese American women become masters in the power
positions of their cultures as well as societies. Moreover, Foucauldian
concept of an “aesthetics of existence” opens up for a new way of these
Chinese American women’s lives. They, thus, realize and cherish their
Chinese heritage. The concluding chapter looks upon the doctrine of the
eternal recurrence in repertoires of these Chinese American women’s
transformation. To be precise, the process of impregnation, anguish and
exuberance, at some point, reflects the doctrine of the eternal recurrence.
Through the eternal recurrence of transformation, I proceed to applaud these
Chinese American women like the overman who tries to break with conformity and
overcomes himself in his culture as well as society.
