论迪克森《同胞》中的优生学种族主义思想

An Analysis of Eugenic Racism Reflected in The Clansman

内战后黑奴制得以废除,黑人奴隶获得人身自由,而种族主义者认为,这对白人的社会主导地位是一种威胁。他们从优生学角度诠释黑人是天生的劣等种族,应该永远处于社会从属地位。美国作家托马斯·迪克森的小说《同胞》宣扬白人至上主义,小说中大量故事情节、人物均按照优生学种族主义基本理论进行设计和塑造,其目标是替白人种族主义者歧视、压迫黑人进行辩护。

After the civil war, with the abolition of slavery, the fi＇eedom of black slaves was regained, which was perceived by the racialists as a threat to the white-donfinated world. And they expounded the blacks were the innately inferior race in the respect of Eugenic Racism thus to be in the subordinate position. The Clansman by American writer Thomas Dixson advocated white supremacy, and a lot of related plots and characters were designed and moulded on the basis of the theory of Eugenics, in order to stand up for the diserinfination and oppression of white racialists.
