Construction of discourse system of"Chinese elements"in Chinese American novels
Chinese American writers live in the margin between Chinese and American cultures.The dual cultural background gives them the writing resources that are impossible for other writers to attain,and the infinite freedom of cross-cultural writing.One of the distinctive features of Chinese American novels is that they are rich in Chinese ele-ments.Through borrowing,parody,collage and other writing techniques to rewrite Chinese elements,Chinese Ameri-can writers integrate those rewritten Chinese elements with American culture,and present them to readers all over the world in a unique form.Based on Foucault's discourse power theory,this paper explores how the writing of"Chinese elements"in Chinese American novels not only deconstructs the western stereotype on Chinese culture,but also contributes to the construction of Chinese American ethnic discourse,political discourse,gender discourse and cultural discourse.
