摘要:: 赛珍珠的长篇小说《同胞》类似于狄更斯的《双城记》，描写了梁氏父子文化身份与文化认同的悖论：深受中华传统文化影响、热爱中华传统文化的梁文华却不安于局势动荡的中国移民美国，其深受美国文化影响的儿子詹姆斯心系中国回国定居、创业，却在家乡成了另类和异乡人。赛珍珠从跨文化视角展现了梁家父子文化身份建构的曲折历程，从一个侧面透露出赛珍珠的跨文化身份对其创作的影响。

Abstract:: The saga novel Kinfolk: A Novel of China by Pearl S. Buck, which resembles A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens, describes the paradoxes of cultural identity and cultural identification in Mr. Liang and his eldest son＇s case. Although attached to ancient Chinese culture and norms, Liang Wenhua migrated to the United States to avoid unrest and chaos in China despite his addiction and commitment to traditional culture and civilization of China, while his eldest son, James, who is deeply influenced by American culture, returns to and settles down in China out of his innate love for motherland, venturing pioneering work but ironically becoming an alien and outsider in his hometown. Pearl S. Buck unfolds the father and the son＇s respective tortuous progress of the construction of cultural identity from the perspective of cross-cultural communication, offering a glimpse of the effect of Pearl S. Buck＇s cross-cultural identity on her literary creation.
