消费主义视域下黑人女性的异化和解放——以托尼·莫里森为例

The Alienation and Liberation of Afro-American Women from the Perspective of Consumerism——Based on Toni Morrison

社会大生产促使消费社会的来临,给人们的生活乃至价值观都带来了巨大的变化。作为现代社会的产物,消费主义(consumerism)在带来物质享受的同时,也影响着人们的审美观,引起现代人的异化。莫里森着眼于都市现代黑人女性生存的困惑,用其作品中女主人公们在物质发达的美国社会生活现状,表明如何在商品社会中摆脱异化、重获新生。

Mass production ushers in consumer society which has brought great changes to people＇ s lives and values. As a product of modem society, Consumerism not only brings to us materials, but also influences our aesthetic awareness, leading to the alienation of modem men. With humanity, Toni Morrison focuses on the confusion of black women. She poses how to get rid of alienation and reestablish cognition for black women with her portrait of heroines in her works.
