Unit3:美国的开始什么是美国?这已经变成了一个经典的问题,这个问题不仅是外国人参观美国时会发出的,连美国人自己也在问这个问题。
当美国人感到困惑的时候,当他们处在危机当中时,他们会问他们到底是谁,并且尝试去查明作为一个美国人的意义在哪里。
实际上,这个著名的问题是出自一位名叫赫克托·圣约翰·德克雷夫科尔的法国人所提出来了,他在18世纪定居于宾夕法尼亚州。
在1782年,这位法国农夫在伦敦出版了一本名为《一封来自美国农民的信》,在这本书中,他提出了这个问题,并且反问他自己:“那美国人呢,他们是新的种族吗?他既不是欧洲人,也不是欧洲人的后裔,他们是一种在任何国家都看不到的强大的血缘融合。
我可以向你例证在一个家庭中,爷爷可能是英国人,他的妻子是荷兰人,他的儿子嫁给了一个法国人,而且他们的儿子娶了4个不同国家的老婆。
美国人是这样的人:他们把所有过去的偏见和习俗抛在脑后,而从他们所热爱的新生活方式、他们所依附的新政府、他享有的新地位中接受新的一套。
来自各个民族的人,在此熔成为一个新的名族,他们的劳动及他们的后代必将给世界带来大的变化......美国人是一种新人,他按新的原则办事,他们因此必须吸取新的思想,形成新的见解......这就是美国人。
”按照德克雷夫科尔所说的,如今的美国人和他们的后裔都是欧洲人混种,但是却没有把美洲印第安人和黑种人考虑在内。
如今,对于美国人的描述越来越复杂。
在美国的家庭中,女婿和儿媳可能是欧洲人的后裔,也可能是非洲美国人或是亚洲移民,尽管这种家庭是由白人黑人亚洲人混血而成,但这毕竟只是少数。
想要去了解美国的话,让我们先回到美国的过去。
新大陆美洲大陆居住的是两次长期人口迁移运动所带来的人民,第一次是从亚洲来的,第二次是从欧洲和非洲。
向美洲的第一次人口迁移运动大约始于25000年之前,当时在西伯利亚的部族为了寻找新的猎场或逃避追赶的敌人越过白令海峡,到达阿拉斯加。
到1492年,大约1000~2000万土生土长的美洲人生活在美洲,他们被哥伦布错认为印度人。
