 note = {40017236975, アセンダンシーの末裔という出自を持つElizabeth Bowenのビッグ・ハウス小説The Last Septemberと，彼女の初期の短篇"The New House” は，一見全く異なるテーマを扱う作品である．しかし， 両作品において，Bowenは19世紀女性作家の「家」をめぐる伝統 一 家を女性の幽閉の象徴とし，そこからの脱出の試みを描くというもの － を意識し，それを巧みに「崩す」ことで，消滅の運命を辿るアセンダンシーの 現状を表現している．どちらにおいても「家」の揺らぎと喪失が暗示され，さらには「家」は幽閉の象徴から， それを逃れて「現在」を生き始めようとする女性自身の表象となる. Bowenはこれらの作品の中で，アセンダ ンシーの終焉という歴史的な瞬間を冷静に描きながら，同時に，そこに新たな人間関係を希求する女性の姿を描き込む．失われるビッグ・ハウスの世界を記録するBowenの目は，アセンダンシーの辿る運命のさらにその先 へと向けられているのである．, The aim of this paper is to examine the relationship between woman and house in Elizabeth Bowen's early works, "The New House" (1923) and The Last September (1929). Bowen is a descendant of the Anglo-Irish Ascendancy and also the last heiress of the Bowen's Court, the typical Irish Big House, though she spent most of her life in England. The Last September is her autobiographical Big House novel, in which she depicts the life of the Ascendancy in the time of the Troubles. Meanwhile, "The New House" is considered to be one of her many "English" short stories. In these two works, she is fully aware of the tradition of the nineteenth-century women writers who represent house as a symbol of women's imprisonment and write about their attempt to escape from it. She adapts this tradition for the modern Anglo-Irish stories that deal with the end of the Ascendancy and subjective independence of women. Although houses are depicted as a prison in both stories, they are not stable any more. This reflects the fact that the Ascendancy was losing their Big Houses and their old aristocratic life-style in 1920s. At the same time, houses are transformed from the symbol of imprisonment into that of women themselves who leave the world of old values and begin to live in the present. Recording the last moment of the Ascendancy, Bowen sees the world beyond it where women can search new human relationships.},
