/kloc-American women in the 0 th and 9 th centuries have duality. Female images have two characteristics. In them, we can not only see the quality of female images with traditional values, but also undoubtedly find the spiritual character of women with independent consciousness. These two archetypes represent two diametrically opposite personality characteristics. The former is weak and docile, while the latter is strong and independent; The former obeys fate, while the latter ignores authority and dares to challenge fate; The former is portrayed as a perfect mother and wife, content with her family role and enslaved status; The latter enjoys a more equal relationship with men in the family, even on an equal footing with men, and becomes the decision maker of the family. /kloc-the female image in the 0/9th century is the combination of these two personalities. Their experience is the contradictory unity of traditional values and anti-traditional independent consciousness.

Women in America19th century created this kind of dual personality female image. They are not only obedient daughters, loving and kind mothers, loyal wives, but also individuals with strong personality and independent consciousness. They are noble in character, full of sacrifice, have a high sense of responsibility, consciously play traditional gender roles, and try their best to build their families into warm nests; However, when the men in life can't take up their obligations to the family for various reasons-infirmity, weakness and shirking their responsibilities-they bravely take up all the responsibilities of the family. More valuable, they broke the woman.

Women can only bypass the shackles of pots and pans and step out of the house. By engaging in occupations traditionally monopolized by men, they have gained dual economic and spiritual independence, thus not only becoming the pillars of the family, but also living in the family and society as independent individuals who control their own destiny.
