摘要
"家园"认同是移民作家的核心关注点。随着全球化的发展,海外华人作家更倾向于"去根化"的世界建构表达出"处处无家处处家"的"世界主义"家园认同观。本文以林玉玲和李立扬两位海外华人作家的回忆录为文本,探究他们在东西方多次迁徙中其族裔自我与家园及与世界的关系。这些华人作家的族裔情感始终处于"去根"与"失根"的矛盾之中。深究原因,其中既有族裔之"根"的牵绊,更有受限于"处处无界却无处不界"的政治、历史和文化语境。两位华人作家以文本互证的方式重启种族、国族与世界的协商共同指向"有根的世界主义",反映出在"普世化"的愿景中和"无根化"的大背景下,"世界主义"与"家园"认同的协同与共融。
Homeland identification is a core issue for immigrant writers.As globalization develops,overseas Chinese writers are inclined to applaud a de-rooting discourse and to re-root themselves worldwide,which demonstrates a cosmopolitan homeland perspective.With a close reading of memoirs by Shirley Lim and Li-Young Lee,this paper intends to explore how overseas Chinese writers identify their homelands during their multi-transnational movements as re-immigrants.This paper points out that these overseas Chinese writers are placed in a contradictory stage between an optimistic de-rooting claim and a painful rootless emotion as they cross borders.On the one hand,they cannot easily abandon the roots of their ethnicity;on the other,they are confined by a paradoxical social context of"boundaries nowhere,yet boundaries everywhere".Their respective memoirs expose this dilemma,rebooting complex negotiations between ethnicity,nationality,and the globalized world as it is today.Their texts jointly indicate a vision of rooted cosmopolitanism,by which cosmopolitanism and the identification of a homeland can coexist in a universalized and de-rooting social discourse.
