生命的移植——论严歌苓新移民小说的思想资源

The Transplantation of Lives——On the Resources of Ideas of YAN Ge-ling’s Immigrant Novels

严歌苓的新移民小说,无论是其身份建构、题材拓展,还是叙事策略、文化视野,都体现了她对中西方文化思想的整合、融会:以精神分析心理学为灯来探测人的隐秘心理、以移民视角为坐标来观照文化差异、吸取普伊格的同性情谊和奥涅尔的地母形象来拓展人性体验的维度,而中国传统的"性善论"思想则是其不变的内核,正是这种对多种文化思想资源的吸纳,才使其作品呈现出和同时代的大陆本土文学迥然不同的风貌、神韵。对严歌苓新移民小说思想资源的具体梳理,既有助于我们探寻其创作演变轨迹的内在理路,又能使大陆作家从中获得某些启发。
