美国大众文化的意识形态功能与华裔作家的解构策略

美国的大众文化表达了美国大众包括精英阶层的思想、观念、价值观的文化生活方式,它的全球化在一定程度上展示了一种自上而下的霸权意识和种族主义倾向.华裔作家赵健秀在他的两部长篇小说《唐老亚》和《甘加丁之路》中,通过互文、戏仿、反讽等手段消解、颠覆了大众文化中的种族刻板印象,不仅如此,他还挪用中国传统文化中的英雄以重塑属于华裔男性的文化偶像,希望华裔能主动积极地介入大众文化,操演自己的华裔美国人特色.

Features of Ideology of American Popular Culture and Chinese American Writers' Deconstruction Strategies

American popular culture is the attitudes and perspectives shared by the majority of American citizens. To a certain extent, the globalization shows its top-down hegemonic consciousness and racism to other ethnic groups. Frank Chin, a Chinese American writer thoroughly exhibits the American popular culture and exposes the ideology and racism in his two novels Donald Duk and Gunga Din Highway,. He deconstructs and subverts the racial stereotype in popular culture by means of intertextuality, parody and irony. Moreover, he appropriates the hero from traditional Chinese culture and expresses his demand that Chinese Americans should actively participate in the popular culture and perform the Chinese-Americanness.
