Margaret Atwood，known as “the Queen of Canadian Literature”，is generally viewed as one of the most influential literary figures at the early period in Canadian literary history.Surfacing，as her outstanding literary creation，has manifested the logically perfect combination of ecological awareness and feminist thoughts.As an eco-feminist literary landmark，the book has great practical significance in modern Canadian literature，which offers us a fresh angle of rethinking the current situation of nature and women in modern society.
For Atwood，the ultimate goal is to transcend the limited and narrow-minded patriarchal system and reconstruct a harmonious society where humans and nature get on well with each other，and where women and men，as equal counterparts，share equal social positions and enjoy absolutely equal rights.Atwood’s efforts find expression in Surfacing，and an attempt to resurface Atwood’s ideas with an interpretation and analysis as clear as possible has been what the author of this thesis has been dedicated to.
