【摘要】：在当今社会倡导多元文化的背景下，一批美国华裔作家凭借独特的叙事视角、带有异域风情的故事情节和丰富的文化意象为当代美国文坛注入了鲜活的力量，，使得反映“边缘文化”的美国华裔文学取得了长足的发展，同时也丰富了美国文学的内涵。谭恩美正是这批新生代美国华裔作家之一，她是继汤亭亭之后的又一位颇具影响力的美国华裔女作家。谭恩美小说的成功之处在于她以自己、母亲及祖母的亲身经历为依托，从文化背景和社会价值观等角度对移民社会中的母女关系进行观察、分析和描述，将中国传统文化与美国文化融为一体，深受不同族裔和不同文化背景的读者的青睐。中国移民母亲与在美国出生的女儿间的微妙关系一直是谭恩美小说的主要关注点，母女冲突是谭恩美前四部小说共有的主题。谭恩美的前两部作品《喜福会》与《灶神之妻》都是以中国移民母亲与在美国出生的女儿两代人之间的心理隔阂、感情冲撞，以及在文化认同和社会认同等方面的角色冲突、情感冲突到最终理解融合的微妙关系为主线展开的，但有所不同。本文选择这两部作品进行研究，试图在对这两部作品进行文本细读的基础上，以女性主义批评理论及方法为指导对谭恩美的前两部作品《喜福会》和《灶神之妻》中的母女关系这一主题进行研究，发掘两部作品中解决母女冲突的方法。由美国华裔女作家所写的关于美国华裔女性的故事向我们阐释了美国少数族裔女性在日常生活中——无论是在父权社会、还是在以白人为主流的美国社会以及她们彼此的关系中所面临的冲突、误解、隔阂,以及到最终的融合过程。
[Abstract]:Under the background of advocating multiculturalism in today's society, a group of Chinese-American writers, with their unique narrative perspective, exotic storylines and rich cultural images, have injected fresh strength into the contemporary American literary world. Chinese American literature, which reflects "marginal culture", has made great progress and enriched the connotation of American literature. Amy Tan is one of the new generation of Chinese American writers. She is another influential Chinese-American woman writer after Maxine Hong Kingston. The success of Amy Tan's novels depends on her own experience, her mother and her grandmother. From the perspective of cultural background and social values, the relationship between mother and daughter in immigrant society is observed, analyzed and described, which combines Chinese traditional culture with American culture. The subtle relationship between Chinese immigrant mothers and their American-born daughters has always been the main concern of Amy Tan's novels, and the conflict between mother and daughter is the common theme of her first four novels. Tan En-mei 's first two works, "Joy Luck Club" and "Kitchen God's wife", are based on the psychological gap between Chinese immigrant mothers and their American-born daughters, emotional conflicts, and role conflicts in cultural and social identity. The subtle relationship between emotional conflict and final understanding is the main line, but it is different. This paper chooses the two works to study, trying to read the two works carefully. Under the guidance of feminist criticism theory and method, this paper studies the relationship between mother and daughter in Amy Tan's first two works, Joy Luck Club and Kitchen God's wife. Explore the ways to resolve mother-daughter conflicts in two works. The story about Chinese-American women written by Chinese-American writers explains how minority women in the United States live their daily lives, whether in a patriarchal society. Or the conflicts, misunderstandings, estrangement, and eventual integration of white American society and their relationship with each other.
