林海音小说大多以婚姻家庭为题材，大量的家庭故事中塑造了姿态各异的父亲形象。本文对林海音小说中的父亲形象进行分类研究，全文共分为四章。第一章对缺位和作为“反衬”角色的父亲形象进行了梳理。早逝父亲对子代精神成长影响深远，不参与家庭生活的父亲背后是“男主外，女主内”性别分工的延续，母亲-孩子（多为女儿）-缺位的父亲形象共同构成了林海音的女性故事世界。无能甚至卑劣的父亲形象更是反衬出母女等形象的主体性光彩。父亲形象成为女性故事中母女等角色的陪衬、反衬，是对男性中心主义视角的有力突破。第二章分类探讨林海音作品中对权威父亲形象的拆解。通过暴露权威光环下真实的人性欲求，作家让这些父亲显示出其凡夫俗子的本质，从而对父亲权威祛魅。通过塑造消极软弱的依附性父亲形象，作家展现了此类与父权要求背离的父亲在父权制度中的个人与家庭悲剧。而通过描绘声称体贴顾家但实际行动非常有限的父亲形象，作家则在温情含蓄的嘲讽中表现了这类“好好父亲”、“好好丈夫”的名不副实。第三章梳理了在生活中“成长”的、带有理想化色彩的父亲形象。这类父亲的情感需求被看见、父亲的父爱本能与家庭参与被重视和高扬，突出表现为“浪子回头”的父亲与贫民父亲的亲子之爱。第四章延伸探讨林海音的父亲形象中体现出的人文关怀与女性视角。林海音的“爱的故事”中洋溢着真挚的人文关怀，在对每一个具体生命的关怀和同情中作者着重标举的又是以亲子之爱为核心的家庭价值。林海音的女性视角体现为对父权秩序的尊重与突破，她基于个体生命成长经历、个人情感与价值观选择了接受父权秩序，在规约之内努力寻求妻职母职与女性主体的两全；然而她在作品中同样进行着女性经验的书写与表达，并且采取了独特的策略化表达方式，其中蕴含着对父权秩序的突破。

Most of Lin Hai-yin's novels focus on marriage and family as themes. In these numerous family stories Lin have portrayed father images with varying characteristics. This paper focusing on these father images concludes four chapters as follows: The first chapter is about the absent fathers and the fathers as contrasting roles. Early passing fathers have a profound impact on the spiritual growth of their children. Behind fathers who are alive but not really participating in family life is the continuation of women's family roles. The images of mothers, children (mostly daughters) and absent fathers constitute Lin Hai-yin's female story world together. Some weak and incompetent fathers even serve as a foil for the mother and child roles. In a word, these contrasting father images effectively break through the male centrism. Chapter two discusses several ways in which Lin deconstructs the authority of father images. Some authoritative fathers who make their children and wives both respect and fear are actually ordinary people with desires. Some passive fathers do not meet patriarchal requirements, which leads to personal and family tragedies. Other fathers who claim to be considerate of their wives and children but fail to practice are also implicitly mocked by the author. Chapter three introduces growing father images who value family and fatherhood. Typical representatives are prodigal fathers who have returned and poor fathers who love their children. In the last chapter, we analyze the humanistic concern and female perspective in Lin Hai-yin’s father images and her novels. In Lin’s “love stories” she promoted humanistic concern and family values. In terms of female perspective, she didn’t fiercely resist patriarchy and identified it to some extent, but she made her own strategic expressions which contained breakthroughs to the patriarchal order.
