理查德·赖特作为一位美国作家,非常重视美国在后殖民时代所呈现出的种种冲突,美国虽然在南北内战当中完成了废除奴隶主庄园制度的关键举措,但是殖民时期的思想依然严重地残留在这些后殖民时代的美国人内心深处。这种后殖民主义的思想残余不仅仅深刻地表现在白种人的群体中,也表现在黑种人群体里。因此,在赖特所创作的小说《土生子》当中,比格·托马斯作为一个黑种人,他也有着自己对命运的抗争,但依然无法逃离这种非常沉重而压抑的困惑。 As an American writer, Richard Wright attached great importance to the clashes in the post-colonial era in the United States. Although the United States completed the key move to abolish the slave-manor system during the Civil War between the North and South, the thinking of the colonists remained serious To the remnants of those post-colonial Americans deep inside. This residual remnants of post-colonialism are not only profoundly manifested in the white group but also in the black group. Therefore, among Wright’s “natives”, Wright Thomas, as a black man, has his own struggle against fate but still can not escape from this very heavy and repressed confusion.
