Abstract
A Rose for Emily written by American writer William Faulkner is regarded as the representative work of southern gothic fiction of America. It enjoys global popularity ever since its birth and scholars have a heated discussion about it from different aspects such as symbolism, characters, and narrative skills and put forward their unique ideas. This paper focuses on the causes for Emily’s tragedy. The story is full of suspense and intensely interesting. Emily’s life was completely dominated by her father and she had no right to date with males and choose her lover. After her father’s death, she could only date with a northern worker. But to her disappointment, the worker refused to marry her, and the refusal drove her to kill him by using poison, and she let his body company her. After Emily’s death, the town people discovered a skeleton in the house, and found out that the poor Emily was a murder, and people were shocked a lot. This novel explores the problems of the culture of the South of American, human’s relationship and the corruption of Christian society value, so it is a great material for learning American history and culture. This thesis attempts to, from the southern social system such as Patriarchal chauvinism and Puritan womanhood, family education and the influence of people in the town to analyze the social causes of Emily’s Tragedy. Through this thesis, the reader can get a further understanding of the south of America and Faulkner’s intention to write such a horrifying short story.
