論文提要：

　　莎翁的《脫愛勒斯與克萊西達》無論在其結構或角色的詮釋上都被視為是一部問題劇，而我的論文將以西蘇的雌雄同體概念，試圖來解決這些長久以來懸而未解的問題。
　　西蘇的雌雄同體概念突破了傳統性別的疆界，「陽性特質」並非僅只是男性專屬的同辭，而西蘇企圖喚醒的「陰性特質」也絕非男性不可有所關聯的禁忌，西蘇讉責社會對於「陽性特質」及「陰性特質」的認知僅止停在一個未經檢視而僵化的範疇中，「陽性特質」長久以來即被理所當然的劃分為男性的特徵，而社會亦期待男性為領導的角色；然而，男性低估了在他們身上能達到某種程度之平衡人性的「陰性特質」，缺少了這些「陰性特質」的平衡，我們就必需警覺到自我毀滅的危險，因為我們被隔絕在陰性的愛與滋潤的祝福之外。

因此，此論文是所著重的，並非分開單獨的來審視「陰性特質」或「陽性特質」，反之，是對父系體制底下產生之二元論的一種檢視，更是對於現況的一種省思，西蘇所提出之雌雄同體的概念解構根深柢固的二元論，並提供了一個更俱彈性、更俱多樣化表現的人性。

Abstract

Shakespeare’s Troilus and Cressida has been regarded as a problematic play, not only in the aspect of its structure, but also in the aspect of its characters. This thesis attempts to solve these troublesome problems by utilizing Helene Cixous’s notion of bisexuality.

Cixous’s concept of bisexuality breaks the traditional barrier of gender. The “masculinity” is not a term which can only be used by men. The “femininity” Cixous endeavors to draw our attention to is not a term with which men are prohibited to be associated with. Cixous criticizes our recognition of the terms “masculine” and “feminine” as rather unexamined, rigid ideas. “Masculine” attributes have been “properly” characterized as men’s traits for a long time and this society expects men to take the dominant roles. However, men underestimate the value of “feminine” traits, which can meet a degree of balance of human nature within those in power. Without these “feminine” traits we should be in danger of self-destruction, because we are excluded from the blessings of “feminine” lovingness and nourishment.

　　Therefore, this thesis is both an examination of the binary system under patriarchy and a reflection of our current situation, not on the virtues of either “masculine” or “feminine” principles. Cixous’s notion of bisexuality deconstructs the binary system and provides more flexible and multiple expressions of human beings.
