Abstract

In this paper, the author first gives a general introduction of feminism, Alice Walker, her "womanism" and makes a comparison between "womanism" and "feminism". In the following part, the author illustrates Grange’s three stages of life and tries to analyze them based on Freud’s psychoanalysis. Finally, applying Freud’s theory of psychoanalysis, the author concludes with recovering self-identity’s significance in the advancement of "womanism".
