吉恩·图默的代表作《甘蔗》自1923年发表以来，就成为了评论家们积极研究的对象，其中一个重要的角度是对书中所蕴含的圣经隐喻进行分析。通过该文细读发现“该隐”的隐喻是贯穿全文的一个主题，作者曾将英文书名Cane写作该隐Cain，文中主人公多为黑人，而该隐一度被认为是黑人的圣经原型，除了黑色的肤色，主人公自身的孤独感以及与他人、环境的疏离感也与受到诅咒被迫流亡的该隐有着相似之处。基于此，该文将以书中首章中的故事《卡瑞恩塔》为例，分析书中的该隐之喻。“,”Published in 1923, Cane, the representative work of Jean Toomer has been widely studied by critics. Among which, one of perspectives is to analyze the biblical metaphors in the novel. A closer reading of the book shows that the Cain allusion is an unifying theme, for the author once refers Cane as Cain, and most of the characters in the novel are blacks who are believed to be descendant of Cain because of the color of their skin as well as the same suffering of isolation and alienation. Here a study of the Cain allusion in the novel is presented with focus on Karintha’s story in the first part of Cane.
