摘要
美国黑人女作家艾丽斯.沃克的短篇小说《日用家当》,在成功描写20世纪60年代末70年代初美国黑人所面临的情感和价值困惑的同时,也在相当大的程度上对作者的民族文化身份意识作了深刻而令人信服的诠释:美国黑人的民族文化身份具有二重性特征,美国黑人文化既有非洲特性又有美国特性,将二者纯粹割裂开来或者采取厚此薄彼的态度都是不可取的,美国黑人只有将自己文化中的非洲特性和美国特性两个方面有机地结合在一起,才能最终确立和维护自己的民族文化身份。
Everyday Use,one of American black woman writer Alice Walker's short stories,successfully describes African-Americans' puzzlement of sentiment and value in the late 60's and early 70's of the last century and at the same time serves as a profound and convincing interpretation of the writer's view on ethnical cultural identity: the cultural identity of American Black people is dually characterized.Black culture is just a mixture of African culture and American culture.It is an undue practice to dissever the two or be beset by prejudice.Only by organically mingling the two can American black people truly establish and protect their cultural identity.
