報告内容簡介:
American Ethnic Literature, once seen as a marginal or “outsider” literature, has often played the role of a mirror, reflecting the historical, socio-political and cultural context of immigrants to the United States of America. Depending upon whether they were voluntary or involuntary immigrants, enslaved or free, the producers of this literature could be ignored or celebrated. Ethnic literature that told of the struggle to become American, to achieve citizenship, to speak English, used a success story model.
Rather than follow the success story model, contemporary American ethnic literature writes about the failure of Americanization, questioning its assumptions and inequities from within. Steeped in rich and vibrant language, this is a literature that has revitalized English, creating a diverse language field that reflect different semantic patterns, dictions, and linguistic formations. In this talk, I will provide examples from African American, Latino and Chinese American literature Literatures that create what I call the new languages of fiction.
