摘　　要：路易斯·厄德里克是美国当代最负盛名的作家之一,长久以来受到读者和评论家的追捧和关注。《爱药》是厄德里克的成名作,是迄今为止她所有作品中被研究和讨论得最多的一部,也是公认的文学成就最高的一部。本文在卡尔·马克思和皮埃尔·布迪厄的阶级理论的指导下对作品中隐含的工人阶级问题进行解读,探析厄德里克如何微妙地表现保留地上齐佩瓦人的阶级等级、失业、贫困和部落劳动等问题以及阶级是如何塑造她笔下人物的身份感的,由此揭示出《爱药》的工人阶级文学特性以及其中暗含的对白人殖民者和美国政府的控诉和谴责,从而表明厄德里克努力唤醒处于文化认同危机下的当代印第安人、重塑印第安历史的决心。Louis Erdrich is one of the most famous contemporary writers in the United States.She has long been the focus of readers and critics.Love Medicine has been studied and discussed the most in all her works so far and thus taken as a masterpiece.Under the guidance of Karl Marx’s and Pierre Bourdieu’s class theories,this thesis interprets the working class problems implied in Love Medicine,and explores how Erdrich subtly expresses the class hierarchy,unemployment,poverty and tribal labor of the Chippewa people on the reservation,as well as how her characters are shaped by class.By doing so,the working class literary characteristics of Love Medicine and Erdrich’s intention to criticize the white colonists and the American government through Love Medicine are revealed.Finally,Erdrich’s resolution to awaken the contemporary Indians in the crisis of cultural identity and to reshape Indian history is demonstrated.
