《宠儿》弑婴中的母爱剖析

Motherhood from Infanticide in Beloved

托妮.莫里森小说《宠儿》是一部问鼎诺贝尔文学奖的力作,具有独特的艺术魅力。小说中讲述了一个令人触目惊心的弑婴惨剧,向读者展示了一种另类的母爱:那就是在万恶的反人类的奴隶制度下处于性别和种族双重劣势下的黑奴母亲的爱,一种非凡的充满创痛的母爱。与早期的小说不同,《宠儿》挑战了传统的母爱价值观,通过毁灭的方式对母爱进行诠释和解读。

Beloved is Toni Morrison＇ s novel that wins her the Nobel Prize for literature. It remains a triumph with its unique artistic charm. Toni Morrison exposes us another kind of motherhood of the black mother based on the double inferior identity racial and sexual,especially in that anti- humanistic background of slavery before the abolition through the tragedy of infanticide. Beloved critiques traditional attitudes toward motherhood as desperate and destructive.
