喜福会的论文提纲

喜福会论文TheCulturalConflictsandBlendingEmbodiedintheJoyLuckClub第一部分介绍作品《喜福会》是著名美国籍华裔女作家谭恩美的处女作，作者在小说中主要描述了四对移民母女的关系和她们之间由于文化的差异而引起的冲突，小说以全球化时代和美国多元文化社会为背景，呈现了4对母女由误会，冲突到理解的过程。在全球化环境下中国面临很多发展的机遇，但更多的是文化的挑战。随着全球化的加剧，中国文化面临一种被融化，被改变的危险。本文通过对《喜福会》文本及其所透视出的文化冲突与融合的分析，说明在全球化环境中，应该在不同文化中找到一个平衡点，并以正确的态度来对待文化冲突，同时不要轻易否定母文化，在向全世界学习其他优秀文化的时候，也要向他们传播中国传统文化。《喜福会》是美国著名的华裔女作家谭恩美的代表作品。在小说中,她呈现给读者的是四位中国移民母亲与她们女儿之间的故事。这四位母亲都有着自己的世界观，她们的世界观又是立足于她们的中国生活经历。她们想把自己的经历一一讲述给女儿,并努力通过母爱的表达在她们与女儿的文化差异和冲突之间建立起沟通的桥梁。起初女儿们不能理解她们的母亲及其代表的中国文化,但随着时间的流逝,女儿们开始理解她们的母亲,同情她们母亲的悲惨过去并最终接受了她们的母亲。事实上，正是《喜福会》中母亲给予女儿们无微不至的母爱才最终使得女儿们理解了她们的母亲及其代表的中国文化。因而,《喜福会》中的母爱不仅是中国文化的象征,更重要的是母女理解与沟通的桥梁，也是中美文化交流的桥梁。小说描写了四位性格、命运各异的中国女性抛却国难家仇，移居美国，以及她们各自在美国出生、成长的女儿的生活经历。作为第一代移民的母亲们虽已身在异国，却仍是彻头彻尾的中国女性，国难家仇可以抛在身后，却无法抛却与祖国的血脉亲情。而在美国出生的女儿们，虽然外表看来与母亲非常相像，却是在迥异于中华故国的价值观与环境下成长起来的，并不得不亲身承受两种文化与价值观的碰撞。母女之间既有深沉执着的骨肉亲情，又有着无可奈何的隔膜怨恨，既互相关心又互相伤害……不过，超越了一切的仍是共同的中华母亲，是血浓于水的母女深情。《喜福会》这部小说是从四部分分别以两代人的不同视角进行叙述的。其中，第一部分“千里鸿毛一片心”和第四部分“西天王母”是以母亲的视角讲出她们的故事（吴素云已经去世，她的故事是从女儿吴精美口中说出，这实际上也是素云的视角。），第二部分“道道重门”和第三部分“美国游戏规则”分别是以四个女儿的视野讲述的。从母亲们和女儿们的视角中，不难看出她们之间的种种冲突以及到最后的相互了解。在文中，母亲们“讲故事”是为了使母女关系从对抗走向和解，从分裂走向融合，而女儿在母亲的感召下确立了自己的族裔身份，但在现实生活中，她们一方面希望融入美国社会，另一方面还是为自己的身份感到迷惘。因此，华裔美国人，不管是作为第一代母亲们，还是第二代的女儿们，必将生活在中美文化的分裂与隔阂，对立与冲突中；但同时我们也应该看到在分裂与隔阂、对立与冲突过程中所表现出来的相互理解以及渐渐的融合。英语版本TheJoyLuckClubisthefirstnovelofAmyTan，afamousChinese-Americanwriter.InthenovelshemainlydescribestherelationshipbetweentheJoyLuckClubmothersandtheirdaughtersandculturalconflicts.ThenovelissetintheageofglobalizationandinthemulticulturalAmericansociety;itrepresentstheprocessofmisunderstanding,conflicts,understandingandblendingbetweenthemothersandthedaughters.GlobalizationnotonlybringsmanychancestochinabutalsobringsculturalchallengestoChina.Asthedegreeofglobalizationisgettingdeeper,Chineseculturefacesthedangerofbeingintegratedandchangedbyothercultures.ThroughcontextualanalysisoftheJoyLuckClubandtheculturalconflictsandblendingembodiedinit,thispaperdemonstratesthatintheageofglobalizationabalanceshouldbekeptamongdifferentcultures,andarightattitudetowardsculturalconflictsshouldbetaken,anditsuggeststhatthenativecultureshouldnotbethrownawaywhenlearningfromothers,andinstead,itshouldbetransmittedtoothers.AmyTan’stheJoyLuckClubisamasterpieceinChinese-Americanliterature.TheJoyLuckClubmothersandtheirdaughtershavebeenthefocusofresearcheversincethepublicationofthisbook.SomeresearchersputtheemphasisontherelationshipbetweenthemothersanddaughterswhilesomeothersbelievethatitisthewritingstylethatmakesAmyTan’stheJoyLuckClubasuccess.Forthereareconflictsthathavebeenvividlydescribedinthisbook,someresearchersmaketheconflictsintheJoyLuckClubthethemeoftheirthesis.However,inthisthesis,maternallovewillbethetheme,anditwillbeinterpretedfromaculturalpointofview.ThroughthestoriesoftheJoyLuckClub,thesecret-ladenlivesoffourChineseimmigrantmothersandtheirAmerican-borndaughtersareshowninfrontofthereaders.Thedaughtersrejecttheirmothers’seeminglyconstantcriticismofeverythingtheychoose,fromhusbandstohairdos.Theyviewtheirmothers’warningsasirrelevant,andtheiradviceasintrusive.Thedaughtersdonotknowwhathasinspiredtheirwarningsandadvice:thehardshipstheirmotherssufferedinChinabeforecomingtotheUnitedStates.Thus,asthemothersseeit,theirdaughtersareflailingintheirmodernAmericancircumstances,unabletousewhatis“intheirbones,”thefamily’sinheritanceofpainthatledtotheirdeterminedstrengthforsurvival,whichtheirmotherstrytobequeaththem.Themothers,meanwhile,watchwithheartacheastheirdaughters’marriagesfail,astheyexpectlessandlessandsoacceptlessandless.Conflictshavebecomesomethingthatpreventstheunderstandingandcommunicationbetweenmothersanddaughters.Infact,alltheconflictsarecausedbyculturaldifferences.TheJoyLuckClubmothershaveacceptedandbeendeeplyinfluencedbyChineseculture,whiletheirdaughtersarebornandgrowupintheUnitedStatesandknowlittleaboutChineseculture.WhattheyhaveacceptedistheAmericanmainstreamculturewhichissomehowcontradictorywithChineseculture.However,duetothematernalloveoftheJoyLuckClubmothers,themothersanddaughtersfinallyunderstandeachother.ThematernalloveintheJoyLuckClubhelpsthedaughtersunderstandtheirmothers;furthermore,itssignificanceliesinthatitservesasabridgeofculturalunderstandingbetweenChinesecultureandAmericanculture.I.ConflictsBetweenMothersandDaughtersintheJoyLuckClubConflictisthemainplotintheJoyLuckClub.Becausethetwogenerationsarebornandgrowupindifferentculturalenvironments,theJoyLuckClubmothersandtheirdaughtershavemanyconflicts.ThemothersaredeeplyinfluencedbythetraditionalChineseculture,whiletheirdaughtersarebornandgeteducatedintheUnitedStates,whosecultureisacompletelydifferentone.ThustheJoyLuckClubmothersanddaughtercanneverunderstandeachother.ThedaughtersatfirsthaveastrongprejudiceagainsttheirmothersandtheChineseculture.BornintheUnitedStatesandbroughtupinAmericanmainstreamculture,theyinevitablyholdaprejudiceagainsttheirmothersandtheChineseculture.TheybelievethatAmericancultureissuperiortoChineseculture.Intheireyes,theirmotherssymbolizebackwardnessandignorance.Theyaredissatisfiedw
