Ⅰ. What is an American? (美国民族性)
1 A new race(新的民族)
(1) In 1782, French farmer J. Hector St. John de Crevecoeur, who settled in Pennsylvania, first raised the question of national identity in Letters from An American Farmer.
(2) He thought the American was a new man who had the mixed blood of Europeans or their descendants, and who left behind him his ancient prejudices and manners and received new ones. Individuals were melted into a new race who acted upon new principles, entertained new ideas and form new opinions. The idea that America is a melting pot originated from his words.
(1)赫克托·圣约翰·德克雷夫克尔于1782年著成《美国农人简史》,首次提出了美国民族性这一问题。
(2)他提出:美国人是一种新型的人,来自欧洲各个种族的人已融成一个新的民族,美国人抛弃了过去所有的偏见与习俗,接受了新的一套,按新的原则办事,吸取新的思想,形成新的见解。美国是民族大熔炉的思想源于德克雷夫克尔的说法。
2 Current situation(当前形势)
Ethnic minorities such as Afro-Americans and Asian immigrants are also included in the American.
如今,美国还包括更多的少数民族,如非洲裔美国人、亚洲裔美国人等。
