摘　　要：文章论述艾里森小说《看不见的人》中的黑色幽默,包括恶作剧精灵叙事,反讽场景与反讽语言,以及超现实主义场景。上述艺术风格颠覆了种族主义设置的黑人刻板形象,为黑人主人公的成长扫清了障碍。小说中的恶作剧精灵黑色幽默,预示了20世纪60年代美国后现代主义黑色幽默小说风暴的到来。This paper discusses the relationship between the protagonist＇s initiation and dark humor. The Invisible Man reaches full initiation when he, after being subjected to various forms of racism and taught many a lesson, recognizes the irony embedded in his grandfather＇s deathbed instruction of dealing with racial oppression with tricks. Three essential ingredients of dark humor are explored at length, including surrealism, irony, and tricksterism. The dark humor tricksterism in the novel is perceived as a pioneer for the novels of postmodernist black humor, prevalent in the U.S. since the 1960s.
