Abstract Based on The Awakening and A Doll’s House, this thesis explores and studies two heroines from the feminist point of view。 The two heroines, Nora and Edna, demonstrate similar feminist qualities。 By staging an overall comparative analysis on the personality and tragic life of two protagonists from the perspective of feminism, it is founded that both of them are victims oppressed by the patriarchal system, but they both have feminine consciousness。 Besides, their complex and distinctive personalities  and different story settings are responsible for their rebellion, which leads to different endings。85673
