摘要
玛格丽特·劳伦斯在短篇小说《鼓王》中清晰地勾勒出宗主国文化与土著文化相遇、浸润、相斥、决裂的走向图 ,对这个过程中两种文化的代表在不同情形下不同心理态势的剖析表明文化误读带来了外来强势文化与土著文化的短暂共存 ,然而前者对后者殖民化、边缘化的征服欲望导致弱势文化为维护自身整一性而进行的不断抗争。宗主国文化暂时的中心地位最终被看似柔弱而坚韧不屈的土著文化成功消解 ,不得不离开这片理想“家园” 。
In The Drummer of All the World, Margaret Laurence outlines the process of encountering, soaking, antagonizing, and rupturing of colonial culture and colonized culture. The analysis of each culture's varied psychological trends under varied circumstances reveals that the temporary co-existence of the cultures is due to the misreading between them, while the doomed failure in culture exchange results from the metropolitan main stream's desire to colonize and marginalize the minority culture, which inevitably brings about the latter's continual opposition to the former out of the desire to keep the intactness of itself. The seemingly weaker yet unyielding colonized culture thus succeeds in decentralizing the colonial culture and drives it away from its imaginary ideal 'homeland'. Then after the collision of the two cultures, the thought-provoking post-colonial culture is brought into existence.
