摘要
当代英国女作家扎迪·史密斯的处女作《白牙》具有很强的时代性,对英国三代移民的生活进行了立体多维而细致入微的观照和开掘。本文着重考察该小说反映的三代英国移民对民族文化和身份问题的不同认识,指出在文化多元主义时代,英国移民族群认同的发展将从单向同化、全盘英化或追求民族本真,走向流动复合的身份概念。
White Teeth, the first book of contemporary British novelist Zadie Smith, represents twentieth-century British multiculturalism and celebrates the heterogeneity of post-colonial Britain. This paper is an attempt to investigate the different notions of national identity represented by three British immigrant generations. It aims at revealing the evolution of national identity in a multicultural era, from hegemonic assimilation or national purification, to the formation of a more fluid and mixed conception of identity.
