托妮•莫里森作品中母亲身份的流变——基于黑人女性主义理论

The Evolution of Mother’s Identity in Toni Morrison’s Works—Based on Black Feminism Theory

由于黑人历史的特殊性,黑人母亲的身份特征一直处于动态的流变之中。黑人母亲身份是黑人女性主义思想的核心。托妮•莫里森作为当代最有影响力的黑人女作家之一,在其小说中打破了传统作品对于母亲身份的书写范式,颠覆并消解了制度化的母性,面对政治、性别、阶级与种族对黑人母性的交互式压制,以反母性的行为给予了无声而有力的揭示与反抗。

Because of the particularity of black history, the identity of black mothers has been in a dynamic evolution. Black motherhood is the core of black feminism. Toni Morrison, as one of the most in-fluential contemporary black female writers, broke the traditional writing paradigm of mother-hood in her novels, subverted and dispelled the institutionalized motherhood, and in the face of the interactive suppression of black motherhood by politics, gender, class and race. She gave a silent and powerful revelation and resistance to the anti motherhood behavior.
