摘要
The three layers of narration is one of the most outstanding writing techniques Byatt has applied in her masterpiece Possession.According to the theories about female lineage and also mother-daughter relationships put forward by Luce Irigaray, the famous French feminist, there can be close interrelations among those three female characters—goddess Melusina, poet La Motte and scholar Maud—from three different historical periods or spaces. They together have woven readers a complex female lineage in its symbolic sense, and each has achieved her own rebirth from it.
