1. 研究目的与意义(文献综述)

generally, root-seeking literature, mostpopular in ethnic works, is intended to find a nation’s cultural identity. theauthor tries to revive the essential part of a nation’s traditional culture andevokes the awareness of the national identity. in song of solomon, root-seekingis reflected in milkman’s way to the south and other traditional scenesdescribed by morrison. the book is a perfect example to show the solution forafro-americans to identify themselves in a white-dominated society.

magic realism, usually considered to bederived from latin america literature, combines magical and supernaturalelements with the real world. matthew strecher defines it as "what happenswhen a highly detailed, realistic setting is invaded by something too strangeto believe". with descriptions full of imagination, magic realism worksare intriguing but sometimes difficult to understand.

in western literature study, when itcomes to the cultural identity and self-consciousness of african american, itis usually associated with the american dream. in pursuing the dream, someamerican blacks lost themselves in the fame and wealth, like macon dead in thebook, leaving their traditions and history behind. “it is dangerous,” notedtoni morrison, who suggests that the black get the strength and confidencebased on their own traditional culture. “one ever feels his twoness, anamerican, a negro; two warring ideals in one dark body, whose dogged strengthalone keeps it from being torn asunder…” said w.e.b du bois in his famous workstrivings of the negro people, showing the importance of root-seeking inafrican american’s culture.
