【摘要】：黄哲伦(David Henry Hwang)被认为是二十世纪美国最知名的华裔剧作家之一,也是目前在好莱坞和百老汇非常活跃的少数族裔剧作家之一。生长在洛杉矶移民家庭的黄哲伦经历了多重文化的影响。他最知名的剧作《蝴蝶君》于1988年在百老汇上映，而后在全世界引起广泛的好评并获得了包括外评论界最佳戏剧奖和托尼奖最佳戏剧奖在内的一系列大奖。在剧中，黄哲伦重新解读了普契尼的经典歌剧《蝴蝶夫人》并探讨了在当今社会人们广为关注的性别歧视，种族偏见以及西方霸权问题。本文是从雅克·德里达的解构主义角度对《蝴蝶君》进行解读。法国解构主义大师雅克·德里达认为，西方思想常常建立在二元对立的基础之上,二元对立中的一方总是处于统治和优先地位，而另一方则永远被排斥在边缘。本文试图探讨黄哲伦对《蝴蝶君》中男人/女人，白人/少数族裔，西方/东方三组二元对立的解构，并重塑男性与女性，白人和少数族裔以及西方和东方之间的关系。本论文除引言和结论外共分为三章。引言部分首先简要介绍作家，主要创作经历，国内外已有的关于黄哲伦的相关研究以及二元对立和解构主义的相关理论，最后简要陈述本文的写作动机和意义。第一章分析《蝴蝶君》的现实语境以及与《蝴蝶夫人》的互文性。《蝴蝶君》取材于现实的真实事件，后作者在现实的基础上加以改编，并通过对它与《蝴蝶夫人》之间的相似性戏仿了《蝴蝶夫人》的人物，情节等，为其解构奠定基础。第二章探讨了《蝴蝶君》中的性别问题。在男人/女人的二元对立中，男性总是处于统治地位，代表着理性，智慧，强大，而女性则处于被统治的地位，代表着感性，艺术，柔弱。《蝴蝶君》中最后西方男人加利玛为东方女人宋丽玲自杀的结局使男女主人公两者话语权颠倒，成功解构了男性与女性之间的二元对立。第三章分析后殖民主义时期东西方的关系。在帝国主义的进程中，种族歧视和偏见是西方对东方殖民统治的理由和手段之一。占优势地位的西方白人最后以自杀结束自己的生命，，象征着白人对少数族裔间的统治瞬间瓦解，也标志着西方和东方二元对立的解构。结论部分梳理了本论文的研究过程，强调了《蝴蝶君》这部作品的现实意义，同时彰显了剧作家黄哲伦呼吁读者在新的时代背景下重新审视和解读两性关系、种族关系和民族关系的努力。
[Abstract]:David Henry Hwang is considered one of the most famous Chinese playwrights in the United States in the 20th century and one of the ethnic minority playwrights who are currently active in Hollywood and Broadway.Growing up in Los Angeles immigrant families, Hwang experienced multiple cultural influences.His best-known play, the Butterfly, was released on Broadway in 1988, and has since been widely acclaimed around the world and won a series of awards, including the Best Drama Award for external critics and the Tony Award for Best Drama.In the play, Hwang reinterprets Puccini's classic opera, Lady Butterfly, and explores the issues of sexism, racial prejudice and Western hegemony that are widely concerned in today's society.This paper interprets the Butterfly from Jacques Derrida's deconstruction.Jacques Derrida, a French deconstruction master, believes that Western thought is often based on dualism, in which one side is always dominant and priority, while the other is always marginalized.This paper attempts to probe into the deconstruction of the dualistic opposition of man / woman, white / minority, western / eastern, and remodel the relationship between male and female, white and minority, as well as between the west and the east in Lord Butterfly.This thesis is divided into three chapters except introduction and conclusion.The introduction first briefly introduces the writer, the main creative experience, the existing domestic and foreign related research on Huang Zhelun, as well as the dual opposition and deconstruction theory, and finally briefly describes the writing motivation and significance of this paper.The first chapter analyzes the realistic context and intertextuality with Lady Butterfly.Through the similarity between it and Lady Butterfly, the author simulates the characters and plots of Lady Butterfly, and lays the foundation for its deconstruction.The second chapter discusses the gender problem in the Butterfly King.In the dualistic opposition between men and women, men are always in the dominant position, representing reason, wisdom, and strength, while women are in the position of being ruled, representing sensibility, art,In Butterfly King, the final result of the suicide of the western man Galima for the Oriental woman Song Liling makes the protagonists and heroines have the right to speak upside down, successfully deconstructing the dualistic opposition between men and women.The third chapter analyzes the relationship between East and West in the postcolonial period.In the process of imperialism, racial discrimination and prejudice is one of the reasons and means of western colonial domination over the East.The dominant Western white man ended his life by suicide, symbolizing the disintegration of white domination over minorities and the deconstruction of the dualistic opposition between the West and the East.The conclusion part combs the research process of this thesis, emphasizes the practical significance of the work, and at the same time highlights the playwright Huang Zhelun's appeal to readers to re-examine and interpret the relationship between the two sexes in the new era background.The efforts of race and ethnic relations.
