在菲利普·罗斯1997年出版的《美国牧歌》中,“美国亚当”和“美国田园主义”的民族神话是贯穿小说文本内外的重要纽带。通过聚焦一位犹太裔“美国亚当”在20世纪60年代遭遇的家庭悲剧,小说讲述了亚当“纯真”的丧失和成熟,田园理想的破灭与坚守,以及美国田园主义情怀对现实的反思和改良意义。同时,小说以哀婉的笔调,冷静地审视了美国“大熔炉”概念中的白人盎格鲁-撒克逊新教同化及族裔性消弭的倾向,并反思了60年代新左派的主要立场和实现途径,这也为理解20世纪末美国多元文化主义策略和新保守主义政治思想提供了一种思路。
In the “American Pastoral” published by Philippe Rose in 1997, the national mythology of “American Adam” and “American Pastoralism” is an important link throughout the novel’s text. By focusing on a family tragedy experienced by a Jewish “American Adam” in the 1960s, the novel tells the story of the loss and maturity of Adam’s “innocence”, the destruction and persistence of pastoral ideals, and the feelings of American pastoralism about reality The reflection and improvement significance. In the meantime, the novel calmly examines the propensity of the Anglo-Saxon Protestant assimilation and ethnic elimination of the white Anglo-Saxon concept in the United States and reflects on the main positions and ways of realizing the new Left in the 1960s. This also provides a way of thinking about the strategy of multiculturalism and neoconservative in the United States in the late 20th century.
