美国当代小说家托马斯·品钦的诸多作品,描写并反思了20世纪60年代的美国社会。当时的美国社会正处于社会经济转型期,新旧观念的冲突表现在社会政治、经济文化和日常生活的方方面面,各种社会矛盾十分突出。黑人民权运动、反战运动和环保运动等社会抗议浪潮风起云涌,美国青年人则针对正统伦理道德、传统价值观念和保守生活方式掀起了一场全面反叛的“嬉皮士”运动,并最终与各种社会运动和抗议活动结合在一起,共同组成了轰轰烈烈的20世纪60年代美国文化,为后续美国社会的成功转型奠定了基础,也为中国当前的社会转型提供诸多有益的启示。
Many works by Thomas Pynchon, a contemporary American novelist, describe and reflect on American society in the 1960s. At that time, the American society was in the process of social and economic transition. The conflicts between the old and the new ideas were manifested in all aspects of social politics, economy, culture and daily life. All kinds of social conflicts were prominent. The wave of social protests such as the Black Civil Rights Movement, the Anti-War Campaign and the Environmental Campaign surged while the U.S. youth set off a completely “hippie” movement against orthodox ethics, traditional values and conservative lifestyles, The combination of social movements and protests jointly formed the vigorous American culture of the 1960s, laying the foundation for the successful transformation of American society and providing many useful enlightenments for China’s current social transformation.
