五位当代阿拉伯美籍女作家文学中的身份困境与互惠
发布时间：2021-03-25 12:45
像其他流散群体一样,阿拉伯裔美籍作家也高度关注他们及其同胞所面临的身份困境。本文探讨了五位穆斯林阿拉伯裔美籍女性作家的作品:戴安娜·阿布·贾芭的《新月》（2003）,艾丽西亚·伊里亚的《头巾》（2005）,莫贾·卡夫的《戴橘红色围巾的女孩》（2006）,莱拉·哈拉比的《曾在应许之地》（2007）和兰达·贾拉尔的《回家地图》（2008）。这些小说展现了众多饱受身份困惑之苦的流散人物。除了运用几个注明的心理学理论外,本研究的创新之处在于,运用了阿明·马阿劳夫在《以身份之名·暴力与归属》（1998）中所提出的身份理论,来探讨这几部小说中的人物身份问题。本文除引言和结语外,共分为六章。引言部分简要回顾国内外研究这五部小说的文献综述,阐明本文所用的研究方法,这一方法主要从阿明·马阿劳夫所提出的身份理论中推导得出。第一章全面研究流散和少数族裔这两个关键词的定义和区别,简要介绍美国的移民史以及流散群体和少数族裔的形成,讨论美国流散文学,并重点介绍阿拉伯裔美国文学,及其形成和发展。第二章探讨莫贾·卡夫的处女作《戴橘红色围巾的女孩》。这部处女作是一部教育小说,讲述了主人公卡德拉走向成熟和自我实现的历程。...
