摘要
从一踏入北美大陆这个异文化世界,非裔黑人就开始了他们寻找自我、追求身份认同的漫漫征程。威廉.斯泰伦在《纳特·特纳的自白》中再现了黑人主人公特纳追寻其文化身份认同的艰辛历程。特纳的身份诉求始于认同白人主流文化的个人身份建构,而后是试图寻找黑人原初的共同文化身份的政治身份建构,最后特纳重构了一个以异质性为特点的散居非裔黑人文化身份,从而完成其身份诉求。
Once setting foot on the continent of North America, African Negroes have embarked on their long journey of looking for self and pursuing identity. The Confessions of Nat Turner by William Styron represents the journey of hardships Nat Turner, the black protagonist, traversed in pursuing his cultural identity. Nat Turner begins his journey with the construction of his personal identity by identifying with the mainstream white culture, then he attempts to construct his political identity by returning to some sacred homeland in search of an original, shared cultural identity of African Negroes. With the efforts in establishing these two identities failed, Nat Turner finally reconstructs a cultural identity of African Negroes as diaspora featuring heterogeneity.
