《子夜的孩子》是“后殖民教父”拉什迪的代表作之一。这部作品体现了作家实现文化殖民的消解和完成被殖民者身份的确认的后殖民主义思想。在殖民主义消失的今天,新的文化殖民正悄无声息地影响着现代民族国家。通过对《子夜的孩子》的解读,了解文化殖民对我们现代生活的影响和作者力求消解西方文化中心意识,从而使边缘的非西方的民族文化回归到应有位置的文学意图。
“Midnight’s Child” is one of the masterpieces of the “post-colonial godfather” and “Rushdie.” This work embodies the post-colonialist ideas that the writers realized to eliminate the cultural colonization and confirm the identity of the colonialists. Today, with the disappearance of colonialism, the new cultural colonization is quietly affecting the modern nation-state. Through the interpretation of “Midnight’s Children”, we can understand the influence of cultural colonization on our modern life and the author’s intention to eliminate the awareness of western cultural centers so that non-Western ethnic cultures on the periphery can return to their proper positions.
