摘　　要：《痕迹》是美国印第安女作家露易斯·厄德里克的代表作之一。本文以后殖民生态批评为理论依托深入分析这部小说,指出《痕迹》揭示了当时的美国政府通过颁布《道斯土地分配法案》消解北美大陆和印第安文化的合法性,进而损毁当地原生生态结构的事实。此外,欧洲定居者借助推广先进文明的名义将当地的印第安人和印第安文化视为愚昧落后的存在,并利用宗教话语实行文化渗透,进而通过生态扩张推进其对美洲大陆的殖民扩张进程。本文最后指出厄德里克在《痕迹》中对欧洲定居者从生态扩张到政治文化扩张的隐秘殖民路径提出抨击,同时也展现了她深刻的生态关怀和种族意识。Tracks has been considered as one of the master- pieces of Native American women writer Louise Erdrich. From the perspective of postcolonial ecocriticism, this pa- per gives a thorough investigation into Tracks and propo- ses that this novel presented the fact that by adopting ＂Dawes General Allotment Act＂, the U. S. government deconstructed the validity of North American land and N- ative American culture, then, devastated original biological system. Additionally, in the name of advancing civiliza- tion, the European settlers denounced Native American people and their culture as barbarous, and promoted cul- tural infiltration with religious discourse. By boosting eco- logical expansion, the settlers advanced colonial expansion constantly. The paper concluded that Erdrich condemned European settlers＇ hidden colonial method of realizing po- litical cultural expansion by imposing ecological expan- sion, she also demonstrated profound ecological awareness and racial consciousness in Tracks.
