水仙花被誉为第一个描写在美华人的亚洲作家,《宝珠的美国化》是其著名小说集《春香夫人及其他》中的一个短篇小说。故事讲述了一个中国新娘不远千里来到美国,与丈夫一同生活,但一直被要求去适应美国的生活方式。基于斯皮瓦克的“属下”理论,本文试图分析小说中的男女主人公:林福作为一个美国社会的属下阶层,极度崇尚白人文化以至于丧失了自我;而宝珠作为一个来自第三世界的女性属下,饱受了父权文化和美国主流文化的双重压抑。 Daffodil is best known as the first Asian writer in the United States to describe beauty in the United States. “The Americanization of Orchids” is a short story in his famous collection “Madame and others”. The story tells of a Chinese bride traveling a long way to the United States to live with her husband but has been asked to adapt to the American way of life. Based on Spivak’s theory of “subordinate”, this article attempts to analyze the hero and heroine in the novel: As a subordinate of American society, Lin Fu advocates white culture so much as to lose himself; The three female genders have suffered from the dual repression of patriarchal culture and mainstream American culture.
