摘要
论文以美国混血华裔女作家"水仙花"所著《春香女士》小说集里描写的有关美国排华年代华人家庭的六篇小说为例,探讨分析了美国西部华人夫妻关系、美国西部华人异族通婚关系和华人家庭伦理传承等问题。从这些故事人物描写中可以看出,"水仙花"独排众议,为华人家庭文化辩护,批评中国男权社会文化对女性的专横。同时,她明显受了当年美国妇女平权运动的影响和接受了种族歧视的现实,认为华人家庭生活文化不能在美国社会共存。
Sui Sin Far＇s Mrs. Spring Fragrance focused mainly on the Chinese people in the west coast of the United States. This paper uses six short stories in the Mrs. Spring Fragrance collection to examine and analyze her views towards Chinese American homesteading, race relations, and cultural identities during the period of Chinese exclusion in the United States. Influenced by both the Suffrage Movement and constrained by the prevalent institutional practice of racism of her time, Sui Sin Far＇s attempt to defend the Chinese families fell short, ultimately acknowledging that there was no room for Chinese family values in American society.
