摘　　要：赵健秀在其成长小说《杜老鸭》中,将昂扬的族裔意识与豪迈的文化情操诉诸笔端,凝聚成一股酣畅淋漓的文化英雄之气,这无疑是华裔美国文学创作史上一次先声夺人的"呛声"之举。本文以伦理批评的视角,从"侠义、忠义、正义"三个层次,分析小说的数位主要人物以及背后的中华英雄文化渊源,探讨赵健秀华裔英雄主义伦理的精神内核,发现作者在伸张英雄主义伦理的同时,不仅恢复了华裔阳刚英武的文化气质和勇于抗争的英雄形象,还藉此补充并升华了孔子天命观,使得整个族裔群体从传统文化的根基上,生发出更纯粹的斗争自信与斗争力量。Frank Chin delightfully enriches his bildungsroman Donald Duk with exuberant Chinese American cultural heroism, and a strong consciousness of Chinese American identity and sensibility, presenting a strong protest voice through Donald Duk, the young protagonist. This article analyzes the relationship between the growth of Donald Duk and traditional Chinese culture with a focus on Donald Duk＇s ethical choice, and expounds Chin＇s concepts of chivalry, faithfulness, and justice. We find that Chin＇s discursive delineation of the tradition of Chinese heroic ethics recovers the image of Chinese American masculinity and the spirit of protest, and expands and enriches the Confucian concept of ＂the mandate of heaven,＂ which reinforces the power of traditional Chinese culture for Chinese Americans in their struggle for racial equality.
