摘要
"逃逸"作为一种文化修辞与美国历史如影相随,白人作家斯蒂芬·克莱恩和马克·吐温以美国内战逃逸为主题,通过反传统的叙事结构和文学修辞,隐含表达他们对种族偏见引起的自相残杀的不满。马克·吐温通过转换小说人物的角色定位、反话正说的修辞方式,以及对黑人方言的使用,进一步触及美国南方黑白对立的敏感话题。拉尔夫·埃利森发现和继承了这种小说叙事和文学修辞,并借此探讨20世纪尚未解决的种族问题,既丰富了非裔美国文学的创作技巧,也深化了非裔美国文学的语言内涵。
Escape as a literary motif,is like a shadow silently following the American history.Such white writers as Stephen Crane and Mark Twain took escape in American Civil War as their literary topic by counter-traditional narrative structure and literary rhetoric,implicitly expressing their discontent with inter-racial killing caused by racial prejudice.Mark Twain reinforced this sensitive theme by shifting the roles of fictional characters,and tried to“move without moving,a special literary rhetoric device which was discovered and inherited by Ralph Ellison,who proceeded to tackle the American racial problems still unsettled in the20th century,thus enriched African American literary writing techniques and deepened its language implications.
