Abstract
In A Rose for Emily, Faulkner showed a downfallen Southern aristocratic class through the description of tragedy and the choice of the protagonist Emily. This article outlines Emily's whole life, analyzing her tragedy and resistance, which presents the deep-rooted concept of dehumanized women identity. Emily’s whole life not only represents the social oppression of women in the patriarchal society, but also symbolizes the struggle and destruction out of self-consciousness.
