第二代华裔作家一方面打破了长期以来的失语状态,挑战了西方的文化霸权;另一方面,由于特殊的文化和种族身份,其作品在一定程度上扭曲了中国文化和中国人的形象。由于有着中国血统,尽管出生在西方,这些亚裔作家在西方人眼中终究是中国人,所以在西方主流社会中他们处于失语和无根的状态。然而在西方的大氛围中,无形之中受到西方意识形态的影响,华裔作家认为自己是西方人。华裔作家笔下的中国也就带有东方主义的色彩。本篇论文将以黄玉雪的《华女阿五》为例,分析该作品所传递出来的东方主义。
On the one hand, the second generation Chinese writers broke the long-awaited aphasia and challenged the western cultural hegemony. On the other hand, due to their special cultural and ethnic identities, their works distorted the Chinese culture and Chinese image to a certain extent. Because of their Chinese ancestry, even though they were born in the West, these Asian writers are Chinese after all in the eyes of Westerners. Therefore, they are in aphasia and rootlessness in the mainstream Western society. However, in the western atmosphere, the influence of Western ideology was invisible and Chinese writers regarded themselves as Westerners. Chinese written by Chinese writers also carry the color of orientalism. This essay will take Huang Yuxue’s “Hua A Nu V.” as an example to analyze the Orientalism delivered by this work.
