摘要
文学作品中的逃离母题体现了人类的文化沉淀,已成为文学作品中最基本的母题之一。逃离母题是莫里森创作的最主要的母题之一,贯穿于小说情节设置、人物塑造等各个层面。逃离的主人公大多出自弱势国家和民族,莫里森借助逃离主题让处于弱势的黑人群体发出自己反抗的声音,生动再现了不同时代黑人的生存状态,有力地展现了黑人奴隶所经受的身心折磨以及现代自由黑人在白人主流文化排挤下的精神困境。通过分析莫里森作品中的逃离母题,深入挖掘作品的文化意蕴和现实意义,揭示美国社会的文化取向和价值观念,展现莫里森对黑人种族和美国社会所抱有的文化理想,进而补充和完善国内有关莫里森的研究。
The motif of escape in literature which is one manifestation of human culture has become one of the most important motives. As one of Morrison^s major themes, it runs through all aspects of her novels including characterization and plots. Most of the escaping heroes are from weak countries or races. By adding the motif of escape to her works, Morrison successfully makes these oppressed black people utter their resistance, and vividly shows the living state of black people in different eras, the physical and mental torture of black slaves, the spiritual predicament of free blacks in the mainstream white culture. Through analyzing the motif of escape in Morrison＇s works, the paper explores the culture implication and practical significance of her works, reveals the cultural orientation and values of American society, presents Morri- son＇s cultural ideal about black race and American society, which will help to further complement and im- prove the study of Morrison in China.
