Part 2 The daughters relate their childhood relationships with their mothers. Part 3 The daughters narrate their adult troubles in marriage and with theircareers.

  4. Literature review • Many writers have done some research on Amy Tan and The Joy Luck Club.Most of them study it from different perspectives of literature, there are Hsu Li-ts'ui, Liu Hong, Ma Li, Shi Pingping and so on.

  5. Hsu Li-ts'ui • Feminism 1 the attitudes of mothers to their daughters 2 the unimportant and peripheral position in The Joy Luck Club 3 the interracial marriages with different results

  6. Liu Hong • The criticism of the second generation to Chinese ethics 1 different culture: filial piety vs individualism 2 different communicative style: Chinese language:evasive vs English: clear simple direct

  7. Ma Li • conflicts and solutions 1 racial conflict 2 sexual conflict 3 the conflicts of both languages and cultural values

  8. Shi Pingping • Feminism 1 racial politics 2 sexual politics

  9. Purpose and significance • This paper deals with the Confucianism in the following aspacts: 1 parental intervention; 2 the traditional ethics that men are superior to men 3 face issue---Chinese social hypotaxis From three aspects I want to know what is the author’s attitude towards Confucianism and the changes of Confucianism in U.S.

  10. Methodology • Marxist Criticism: Marxist critics maintain that literature does not exist in some timeless, aesthetic realm as an object to be passively contemplated. Rather, like all cultural manifestations, it is a product of the social-economic and hence ideological conditions of the time and place in which it was written. • Structuralism: Structuralists emphasize the whole. In their opinion, the whole is much more important than the parts cause any part has a complicated whole and it can’t be understood without the whole. That means if we want to understand one part well we should contact it with other parts within the whole. In The Joy Luck Club, the things that happen to the mothers in old China and the things that happen to the mothers and their daughtes will be analyzed.

  11. conclusion • The influence of Confucianism towards the first and second immigrants. • The author’s attitude towards Confucianism
