摘要
以种族殖民政策为内核的文化生存环境,使美国黑人一直身处多元文化视野却被制约在一元文化即WASP(白人·盎格鲁-撒克逊·新教)的范式中。作为“顺承者”的他们人格被扭曲,暴力变成他们在新种族主义体制中自我认同的一种手段。40年代黑人作家赖特在其成名作《土生子》中,以人名和书名构成比喻性美学符号以解构该传统的文化模式,它不仅表明了黑人具有黑人性及美国性的双重属性,还迫使黑人民族文化被纳入美国文化视野,为发展多元社会文化表征系统提供了可能。
Discriminating racial policy has kept Afro-Americans restricted in a monistic cultural mode while facing multi-cuhural elements. With distorted personaity, negroes, as ＂adjustmentdefined＂ race, have to turn to violence for self-identity. Native Son, a name for the novel by Richard Wright, together with the Protagonists＇ names, have built up a highly metaphorical code system deconstructing the traditional WASP（ White Anglo-Saxon Protestant） model and revealing the Afro-American dual identity--negroness as well as American belongings. Besides, Negro ethnic culture has been firstly admitted by the dominant American culture, providing the possibility of muhi-cuhural development in American and global literature.
