《所罗门之歌》与《圣经》的人物互文性研究

《圣经》是基督教文化的象征,是西方主流文化的重要组成部分,对美国黑人文学产生过很大影响。从理查德.赖特到托妮.莫里森,许多黑人作家都援用《圣经》中的典故来隐喻美国黑人的地位和身份,从不同的侧面反映主流文化和边缘文化的关系。文章运用互文性理论阐释《所罗门之歌》与《圣经》在人物上的文化互文性,旨在凸显莫里森的互文策略——戏仿中颠覆,颠覆中重构,展现黑人传统文化独特的艺术魅力。

On the Intertextuality of Character Between Song of Solomon and The Bible

The Bible,a symbol of the Christian culture,is an important part of the mainstream western culture,impacting greatly upon the American black culture.Richard Wright and Toni Morrison are good examples of those black writers who employ the Biblical quotations to signify the social status and identity of African Americans,reflecting the relations between the dominating culture and the peripherised culture.This paper aims at interpreting the character intertextuality between Song of Solomon and The Bible for the purpose of high lighting Morrison’s strategy of intertextuality: parody is employed as a means to subversion,while restructuring an end to it,displaying the artistic glamour of traditional African culture.
