欧美华人女作家自传体文学的文化视野

当代欧美华人女作家的自传体文学创作无论在对社会生活表现的广度上还是对现代人心灵开掘的深度上都有所突破,远远超出了自传体或者女性题材的限定。作者在对东西方文化的反思中完成了对历史的追忆和对现实的直面,经历了民族视角和世界立足点之间的徘徊,最终对自己的文化身份进行了自觉的定位——以文化边缘人的身份坚持写作的“第三空间”。她们的创作无论对于纠正、完善东方文化在西方的镜像,还是对于打破西方文化中心主义的坚冰,发展中国文化成为世界文化的一部分,都是有意义的。

On the Cultural View of the Contemporary Autobiography Written by the Chinese-European and Chinese-American Authoresses

The contemporary autobiography written by the Chinese authoresses living in Europe and North America oversteps the boundaries of the autobiography and the female subjects in the width of expressing the social life and the depth of exploring the spirits of contemporary humans.They complete the reminiscences and confrontation of reality by the introspection of the culture between the east and the west.Finally,they identify themselves as marginal literati after vacillating between the ethnic perspective and the world standpoint.Their writings are instructive to develop the Chinese culture into the part of the world by means of correcting the Westerner's impressions on the Oriental culture and breaking the western culture-centered opinions.
