木兰形象从《木兰辞》到迪士尼动画《木兰》的改变 毕业论文.doc

中文摘要 当今多元文化发展迅速，中西文化交流日益增多，其中有融合，也有区别和差异。美国迪士尼公司创作的动画片《木兰》，借用《木兰辞》的故事，在不改变史实的情况下，用新的创作理念和文化差异，创作出了一个全新的花木兰，使故事内容有了新看点，使木兰这个人物再次深入人心。两个不同的花木兰表现出的明显差异，值得我们深思。本文将首先介绍并分析动画《木兰》对花木兰形象的改编，如对外表，语言等，现代元素的加入，如两个虚构的配角——木须和蟋蟀，接着将其与《木兰辞》中的花木兰形象进行对比，尝试总结导致这种变化的原因——文化霸权，美国正借助大众媒介和信息技术的力量进行文化扩张。对此我们深思我们应该提高文化警觉性，保护自己的优秀文化。 关键词：花木兰；美国价值观；文化霸权 Table of ContentAbstract i 中文摘要 ii 1.
