后现代语境下托妮·莫瑞森的话语策略

Tomi Morrison’s Discourse Strategies in Post-modern Context

作为美国历史上第一位获得诺贝尔文学奖的黑人女性,托妮.莫瑞森的成功绝不是偶然的。随着西方社会进入后工业时期,后现代主义思潮的影响也逐渐被更多人关注。在文学领域,许多作家就运用后现代主义的"反本质中心"观念,质疑传统的话语权力关系,树立新的话语权威。托妮.莫瑞森也灵活的借用了这一观念,为黑人——这个被边缘化的人群争取了更大的叙述空间,同时,在这种创作观念的指导下,她重新组合叙事形态,运用自由视角、破碎拼贴等多种创作技巧,构造了一个崭新的黑人艺术世界,她的种种尝试,都推动了黑人文学的发展。

As the first female Mriean - American winner of a Nobel Prize in literature ,Toni Morrison＇ s success is not aecldental. As long as the period of post - industrial began, the impact of postmodernism has gradually caught more people＇ s attention. In the literary circles, many writers made use of the concept of＂ anti - essentialism＂ , to question the traditional power of discourse and establish a new narrative authority. Toni Morrison borrowed the concept flexibly for African -Amerieans who were marginalized for centuries to eonstruct a greater space of description,meanwhile, under the guidance of such a creative idea,she re - combinated the narrative form, using free perspective ,fragmentation, collage and other creative skills, construct a new art world for african -amerieans and all her attempts have promoted the development of black literature.
