三部非裔美国文学作品中的身份认同解读
发布时间：2019-02-28 10:06
【摘要】：20世纪以来，文学研究逐渐走向文化研究，“身份认同”作为文化研究领域中的一个重要主题，既指涉个体间的差异，也强调群体间的同一。迅猛发展的资本主义经济与日益加快的全球化进程，不仅强化了个体与族裔的漂泊经历，而且加剧了他们疏离感与异化感的体验，个体与族裔如何在这一过程中寻求身份认同成为一个值得探讨的问题。 本文以《土生子》、《看不见的人》、《所罗门之歌》三部黑人作家的作品为研究文本，试图探讨背负着奴隶身世与面临巨大文化阻力的非裔美国人在美国社会中建构自身身份认同的尝试与探索。这三部作品呈现了各个时期的黑人从希望成为美国人到希望被认同为“人”的自我认同历程。《土生子》中的别格作为生活在最底层的黑人，对高高在上的白人世界怀有深深的恐惧，，这种恐惧与自我否定使得别格认为自己就是天生的坏黑鬼，理应处处遭受非人的待遇，虽然他证实自身存在的暴力手段过于极端，但是他只是希望能够被认同为一个土生土长的美国人；《看不见的人》中的无名主人公向来伪装自己以迎合白人的需求，但是尽管他按照白人给定的身份唯唯诺诺的过活，但是白人世界依然对他视而不见，他也因此丧失了人的意识，在不慎跌入地洞之后，他才顿悟，烧掉了白人给定的身份证明，重获人的自我意识。《所罗门之歌》中的奶娃出身于中产阶级，优越的物质生活助其养成了一套白人的价值观念，其在南下寻求家族宝藏的过程中，接受了黑人文化的洗礼，渐渐摒弃了白人的价值观念，实现了精神上的重生。 非裔美国人在美国社会的处境较其他少数族裔更为复杂，他们如何才能实现自身的身份认同，需要黑白两个阵营的共同努力。白人摒弃种族主义的观念以及兑现民主的承诺，是解决这一问题的外部推动力，而黑人方面则需要完成自身政治、经济、文化与灵魂的重塑，从根本上实现自身的身份认同。
[Abstract]:Since the 20th century, literary studies have gradually moved towards cultural studies. "identity", as an important theme in the field of cultural studies, not only refers to the differences between individuals, but also emphasizes the identity of groups. The rapid development of the capitalist economy and the accelerating process of globalization have not only strengthened the experience of individual and ethnic drift, but also increased their sense of alienation and alienation. How individuals and ethnic groups seek identity in this process has become a question worthy of discussion. This paper studies the works of three black writers, "Native son", "Invisible Man" and "Song of Solomon". This paper attempts to probe into the attempt and exploration of African-Americans who bear the life of slaves and face great cultural resistance to construct their own identity in American society. These three works present the process of self-identification of blacks in various periods, from wanting to be American to being identified as "people." Berger in Native Children as the lowest black living. Deep fear of the high-flying white world, fear and self-denial, led Bug to think he was a born bad black man and deserved inhuman treatment everywhere, even though he had demonstrated that the violence he had existed was too extreme. But he just wants to be recognized as a native American; The unknown hero in Invisible has always camouflaged himself to cater to the needs of whites, but the white world continues to turn a blind eye to him, despite the fact that he lives on the promise of a white man's given identity. As a result, he also lost consciousness, and after he accidentally fell into the hole, he realized, burned down the white man's given identity certificate, and regained his self-consciousness. The Milk Baby in Song of Solomon was born in the middle class. The superior material life helped him develop a set of white values. In the process of seeking the family treasure, he accepted the baptism of the black culture, gradually abandoned the white values and realized the spiritual rebirth. The situation of African-Americans in American society is more complex than that of other minorities, and how they can achieve their identity requires the joint efforts of both black and white camps. White people's rejection of racist ideas and commitment to democracy are the external driving force to solve this problem, while the black side needs to complete the reconstruction of its own politics, economy, culture and soul, and fundamentally realize its own identity.
