Abstract：Toni Morrison, one of American most outstanding writers of the 20th century, is the first Afro-American woman writer who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1993. The unique and traditional culture and virtues of African American women appeals deeply to Morrison. Song of Solomon is not an exception. Although male characters seem to occupy the central and leading position in this novel, black women, who are under the double oppression of the white race and the black men, are the real subject of the author’s care and sympathy. After a close study of the images of black women in Song of Solomon, the author of this essay contends that only by rooting themselves in the rich soil of their own ethnic culture can the African-American women find their authentic identities and their beauties.

摘要：托尼•莫里森是当代杰出的美国黑人女作家，是世界上第一位荣获诺贝尔文学奖的黑人女性。黑人妇女独特的，传统的文化和美德令莫里森非常着迷，她几乎所有的作品都强调这一主题，《所罗门之歌》也不例外。在这部小说中，虽然男性人物占据着主人公位置，但饱受白人和黑人男性双重压迫的黑人女性才是作者寄予无限关怀和同情的对象。本文通过研究《所罗门之歌》中的黑人女性形象来揭示黑人女性只有坚持自己的文化传统及文化价值观，才能获得解放和独立，展示黑人女性之美的主旨。
