从《骨》中的三对父女关系看华裔美国人的文化身份认同

Perspective on Culture Identity of Chinese American from Relationship between Fathers and Daughters in the Bone

华裔美国人的文化身份认同问题,是华裔美国文学作家作品中常见的主题。伍慧明的《骨》是华裔美国文学作家作品中的代表作。它主要从安娜与父亲、尼娜与父亲、莱拉与父亲这三对父女之间的关系来集中展现华裔美国人的文化身份认同问题。三个女儿中,安娜是极端的反抗者,属于"失根"族群中的一员;尼娜是洒脱的西化者,她最终选择了抛弃中国文化身份;莱拉是温和的叛逆者,属于"落地生根"类型。文章认为,莱拉所展现的这种"落地生根"类型的混杂新文化身份,对于当代华裔文化身份认同有很强的借鉴意义。

Culture identity of Chinese American is a common theme of American literature works by Chinese American, of which the Bone by Wu Minghui is a representative. In this novel, the relations between Anna and father, Nina and father, Lara and father are described to explain the culture identity issue of Chinese American. Among the three daughters, Anna is the protestant who is one of the ＂rootless＂ group~ Nina is the westernized one who is free and easy, and she finally chose to get rid of Chinese culture identity~ Lara is the blandly be- trayer who is the ＂rooted＂ one. Lara, as the rooted one who is a mixture of two cultures, is considered to be of great reference for culture identity recognition of Chinese Americans.
