摘要
赛珍珠研究还有几个有待深入的问题:1 关于赛珍珠可不可以写入20世纪中国文学史的问题,可以从作家对自我身份的认定以及从作品的性质来决定。赛珍珠多次说自己"也是一个中国人",而她的作品大部分跟中国20世纪30年代的"乡土文学"有着紧密的血缘关系,因此她可以写入中国文学史。2 如何评价当年的西方传教活动及赛珍珠的传教士身份,总体上说,西方的传教活动对开启民智、加速中华民族的现代文明进程起到了一定的推动作用。赛珍珠是一位真诚善良、热心为中国人民服务的人。3 怎样评价赛珍珠的贡献,要看到她的"人桥"作用的特点本意在中美双方的"沟通"上,但重在对双方文化的匡正和建设上。4 要加强有关资料的搜集与整理。
There are several questions that require exploration in Pearl S. Buck Studies. First, should Pearl S. Buck be included in the History of the 20th Century Chinese Literature? It depends on the recongnition of her identity and the quality and nature of her writings.Pearl S. Buck said on various occasions that she was also Chinese and most of her creative works have a strong affinity with Chinese 'local color literature' of the thirties of the 20th Century, thus her works deserving a niche in the history of Chinese literature. Second, how should we reassess the role and activities of Western missionary and Pearl S. Buck as a missionary at the turn of the 20th century? In general, Western missionaries played an important role to raising educational level of the people and promoting the process of modern civilization in China. Pearl S Buck was an honest, kind, and dedicated figure to help serve Chinese people. Third, how are we going to evaluate Pearl S. Buck's contribution to building a new 'human bridge' between China and the United States. What she tried to do is to promote 'understanding' and eliminate injustice and prejudice existed among people. Fourth, we should make a concerted effort to collect and get together as much as we can research materials and documents for interested scholars to investigate and study in future.
