One of the most important works of twentieth-century American literature, Zora Neale Hurston's beloved 1937 classic, Their Eyes Were Watching God , is an enduring Southern love story sparkling with wit, beauty, and heartfelt wisdom. Told in the captivating voice of a woman who refuses to live in sorrow, bitterness, fear, or foolish romantic dreams, it is the story of fair-skinned, fiercely independent Janie Crawford, and her evolving selfhood through three marriages and a life marked by poverty, trials, and purpose. A true literary wonder, Hurston's masterwork remains as relevant and affecting today as when it was first published -- perhaps the most widely read and highly regarded novel in the entire canon of African American literature.
佐拉•尼尔•赫斯顿(1891-1960),美国黑人女作家,被誉为“南方的天才”。在美国第一个黑人小城伊顿维尔,赫斯顿度过了无忧无虑的童年;1918年进入霍华德大学就读文学系,1925年来到黑人文学的中心纽约,开始创作生涯,并成为哈莱姆文艺复兴运动的活跃分子。
赫斯顿毕生致力于保持黑人文化传统、探寻黑人完整的生命价值。她收集整理了黑人民间故事集《骡与人》、《告诉我的马》,还写作了四部小说:《他们眼望上苍》、《约拿的葫芦藤》、《摩西,山之人》、《苏旺尼的六翼天使》,一部自传《大路上的尘迹》,以及一些短篇小说。
赫斯顿在小说中大量使用黑人口语,以诗一般的语言去表达黑人语言之美。她的作品并不着眼于种族斗争,而是致力于表现:同其他人种一样,黑人也拥有生活的丰富性和对幸福的追求,也会面对生活中必然存在的不幸和悲剧。
我也希望自己可以像一棵会盛开的梨树,有唱着新世纪歌谣的蜜蜂朝我飞来。

黑人女作家佐拉笔下的女主角珍妮一直在寻觅自己的爱情,不由让我想起之前很喜欢的一部作品《被嫌弃的松子的一生》,同样是一个女人追逐爱,与男人纠葛、寻爱不得的一生,《他们眼望上苍》因其时代背景和种族歧视的刻画,比之《松子》中的性格悲剧要来得更深刻。 第一个男人洛根...
评分“远方的轮船承载着每个男人的希望。有些船只伴着潮为入港,另一些则始终航行在海平线上,从不脱离人们的视野直至嘹望者听天由命地移开目光,他们的梦想被时间摧折殆尽,这些船才会靠岸停泊。这便是男人的人生。 女人呢,她们把不愿想起的事情统统忘记,把她们不原忘记的每件事...
评分美国这个思想自由国度历来不缺乏描写黑人的文学作品,十九世纪斯托夫人的《汤姆叔叔的小屋》吹响了废除黑奴的号角,问世后一版再版,深受好评。林肯总统在接见斯托夫人时幽默风趣地称赞她是“写了一本书,酿成了一场大战的小妇人。”二十世纪有马克•吐温的《哈克贝利•费...
评分 评分Their Eyes Were Watching God perfectly combines folklore and literature in the theme of Black and female empowerment. The folklore elements were so well immersed that they could easily go unnoticed. According to Claire Crabtree, there are four major aspects...
