《父亲的微笑之光》中的性颠覆

Sexual Overturn of By the Light of My Father's Smile

艾丽斯.沃克的作品《父亲的微笑之光》在父女冲突的框架内探究了性秩序对黑人女性成长的影响问题。该作品与其说是一部女同性恋宣言,还不如说是一部宣扬两性平等和谐的宣言书,它以一种原始民族的信仰之说瓦解了西方父权制下的男女间的二元对立观,建立了男女之间平等多元、互为主体的新型关系,从而实现了对原有旧的不合理的性秩序的颠覆。

Alice Walker＇s By the Light of My Father＇s Smile studies the sex sequence＇s effect on black women＇s growth in the frame d the conflicts between father and daughters. The book is more a manifesto on the equality about both sexes than female homosexual one. It destroys dual contrasts between men and women under western patriarchy by a kind of original national belief and sets up a new kind of equal and independent relationship between two sexes. It overturns original old sexual order.
