澳大利亚土著文学创作中的政治

Political Inclinations in Australian Aboriginal Literature

20世纪下半叶勃然兴起的土著英语文学是缤纷的澳大利亚文学大花园中一朵绚丽的奇葩,为当代澳大利亚文学增添了别样的色彩:它把一个古老而陌生的民族通过他们自己的手笔展现在世人面前。纵观澳大利亚土著文学创作,笔者发现,它的一个突出特点,在于其鲜明的政治倾向。具体表现在三个方面:对白人殖民的斗争、对土著传统文化的坚守以及对话语权的争夺。

Aboriginal literature in English,a unique genre that came to flourish in the late 20th century,opens a new field in modern Australian literature and has greatly contributed to its diversity and colourfulness,as it,from its own perspective,brings before the reader the existence of an old yet unfamiliar race.Making a survey of the Australian Aboriginal literature,the author observes a notable characteristic,that is,its striking political inclinations,which are seen in the following aspects:a staunch fight against the White colonization,a cling to the traditional Aboriginal culture and a scramble for the power of discourse.
