  • Descrição: This essay presents a comparative racial and gender analysis of masculinity and power during the postDepression United States in a reading of Younghill Kang’s novel, East Goes West: The Making of an Oriental Yankee.1 I argue that Kang’s novel, primarily read as an immigrant story yields insight into the multiple racial and class formations of Asian and black men in the U.S. within the context of sexuality, power, labor, and the economy. Kang’s novel shows how the dominant racial paradigm of black versus white in the U.S. depends on an Asian male subject who negotiates his racialized identity within a tripartite racial system of black, white, and Asian. This racial negotiation of Asian masculinity revolves around the figure of the early Asian foreign student who receives privileges and favors by white elites and intellectuals. The Korean male protagonist in the novel understands how his status as the exotic Asian foreign student creates a masculine racial position between black and white men that predates but also mirrors the later formation of the Asian model minority during the U.S. civil rights era and beyond.
    本文旨在閱讀姜鏞訖的《自東徂西---位東方美國北佬的形成))(1937)所呈現的美國後大蕭條時期，男性氣概與權カ的比較種族與性別分析。著者主張，在性傾向、櫂力、勞エ與經濟的脈絡裡，姜鏞訖的小說當作移民故事閱讀，箇中美國亞裔與黑人男性多重的種族與階級形構饒富洞見。姜鏞訖的小說顯示美國黑白對立的支配性種族範式，如何取決於亞裔男性主體在黑、白與亞裔的三方種族系統内協商其種族化的身分認同。亞裔男性氣概的種族協商，繞著獲得白人菁英與知識分子之特權與恩寵的早期亞裔外國學生之形象轉動。小説中韓裔男主角瞭解其異國的亞裔外國學生身分，如何在黑人與白人間創造男性種族位置，而美國民權運動年代及其後亞裔模範少數民族的形成實已提前來到並反映於此位置中
