Wharton’s works in the 1920s, especially those written after 1925, reflect this tendency of a deepening understanding of women’s difficulties in motherhood. As Wharton writes the mother-daughter relationship, she negotiates with the maternal forces in her life and career as female writer, positive and negative alike. The daughter-surrogate mother structure embedded in the ghost stories enables the writer to explore the support of a female cooperation within haunting domestic space. In the non-gothic fictions, Wharton’s interest in the issue of motherhood has its affinity with her conflict with and memory of her mother. Through the exploration of the theme of motherhood in her writing, Wharton reconciles with the influence of her mother and achieves a deeper, more sympathetic understanding of women as mothers.4489415 bytesapplication/pdfen-US伊笛絲．華頓代理母親母女關係女性情慾母職鬼故事Edith WhartonLucretia Jonessurrogate mother figuresmother-daughter relationshipfemale sexualitymotherhoodghost storiesthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/247586/1/ntu-99-R94122005-1.pdf
