美国黑人女作家艾丽斯.沃克的《紫颜色》不仅是一部女性主义著作,同时也探讨了黑人对于非洲传统,对于家园的追寻。本文通过对书中几个代表人物的分析,发现他们在对待非洲及其传统方面从一无所知到逐渐了解,再到接受并溶于心中,并围绕这三个阶段探讨他们对于非洲传统的认识与接受方式。 The “purple color” of African American woman writer Alice Walker is not only a feminist book, but also a discussion of blacks’ pursuit of African tradition and homeland. Through the analysis of several representative figures in the book, I find that they gradually understand from ignorance to treat Africa and its tradition, and then accept and dissolve in the heart, Know and accept the way.
