摘要
家(园)是美国著名非裔女作家托妮·莫里森小说《家》(2012)的核心主题。小说中的重要人物丽诺尔和莉莉都是渴望家(园)的寻梦者,她们家(园)梦破碎的根本原因在于,她们盲目认同白人的家(园)理念,把自己的人生世界局限在一种或是个人主义或是父权思想为主导的狭小空间里。从种族、性别和生态的维度看,《家》中人物的生活命运尤其是他们的家(园)体验揭示了莫里森的家(园)理想:一个有生命力的黑人家(园)绝不是一个封闭式的以自我为中心的个人隐私空间,它是一个特别关注黑人女性姐妹情谊、边界开放能容纳异己、其间充满生态关怀的社区化空间,它让人感到自由、安全而且相互关联。
Home is a central theme in Toni Morrison’s novel Home(2012),in which the major characters Lenore and Lily try in vain to seek homes of their own.Their home dreams are shattered as the home spaces they try to locate are furnished with white values which prioritize private possession and patriarchal authority.The disillusionment of their hunt for home implies that white people’s idea of home may not be applicable to those ethnic groups in America.As Morrison’s text dramatizes,an ideal home for the blacks is one that is not confined to self-centered private space.Instead,it is an open ecological community space that attaches importance to freedom,tolerance and sisterhood.
