旅法美裔作家斯坦因因其丰富的个人经历、特殊的种族背景与性取向,以及激进的文学形式实验,在美国文学史上占有独特的一页。她对美国的种族、性别建构有着深刻理解,同时又与巴黎的先锋文艺运动息息相关。在她的早期作品《三个女人》(Three Lives)中,斯坦因采用看似稳定、可靠的种族与性别的固定模式对其根深蒂固的意识形态进行了重构,并且通过具有矛盾性和不稳定性的文学形式实验构建了一个关于种族、性别和性的模式。而这个模式同样是矛盾的、不确定的,展现了关于性别、种族、性和文学形式实验最激进的一面。本文将从种族性别、性和文学实验三个方面分析该作品,旨在探讨其内在和外在的、相互矛盾的双重性。 Stein, a French-American writer, has a unique page in the history of American literature because of his rich personal experience, special racial background and sexual orientation, and radical experiments in literary form. She has a deep understanding of American racial and gender identity and is closely linked with the pioneering literary movement in Paris. In her early Three Lives, Stein reconstructed its deep-rooted ideology with a seemingly stable and credible pattern of race and gender, and adopted contradictory and instable Sexual literary experimentation builds a model of race, gender and sex. And this paradigm is equally contradictory and indefinable, demonstrating the most radical aspects of experiments on the gendered, racial, sexual and literary forms. This essay will analyze the work from the aspects of race, sex and literary experimentation, aiming to explore its intrinsic and extrinsic and contradictory dualities.
