摘　　要：托妮·莫里森天赋如此出众,似乎高高在上、超然世外,让人们很容易忘记她是那个时代的产物。不过,她也深受同时代音乐作品的影响。她曾对学者保罗·吉尔罗伊说,希望自己的写作能模仿出她在黑人音乐演奏中听到的“种种复杂多变、种种严谨规范”。文学评论家有时将莫里森的作品比作爵士乐--她1992年出版的一本小说就名为《爵士乐》--爵士乐作为“美国古典音乐”所拥有的文化威望,与莫里森在文坛的至尊地位极为相配。Toni Morrison was such an excep tional talent,and seemed to float so high above the fray,that it's easy to forget she was a product of her time.But she was profoundly influenced by the work of contemporary musicians.She wanted her writing to emulate,she told the scholar Paul Gilroy,“all of the.intricacy,all of the discipline”that she heard in black musical performance.Literary critics sometimes compare Morrison's writing to jazz,the genre after which she titled her novel from 1992,and whose cultural prestige as“America's classical music”befits her canonical stature.
