本文从当代美国印第安作家路易丝·厄德里齐的小说《痕迹》入手,结合美国《道斯法案》出台的历史背景以及法案给印第安人民生活所造成的影响,考察后殖民语境下和历史叙述中被边缘化的族裔———土著美国人———的历史境况,指出对厄德里齐所代表的当代印第安作家来说,他们是没有历史的群体,从文学进入历史就成为他们抵抗边缘化的一个重要方式。 This article starts from the novel Traces of contemporary American Indian writer Louise Erdrich, and combines the historical background of the U.S. “Daws Act” and the impact the Act has on the lives of Indian people. It examines the postcolonial context and historical narration In the history of the marginalized nations - Aboriginal Americans - and pointed out that for the contemporary Indian writers represented by Erdrich, they are a group without history, and entering literature from history becomes their resistance to the brink An important way to change.
