摘要
后殖民理论作为20世纪后期兴起的重要学术思潮，为英语文学研究提供了全新的视角。本研究旨在通过后殖民理论框架，深入解读英语文学作品中的权力关系、文化认同与殖民话语建构。研究选取了多部具有代表性的英语文学作品，结合萨义德的东方主义理论、霍米·巴巴的杂交性概念以及斯皮瓦克的底层发声理论，运用文本细读与批判性分析相结合的方法，探讨殖民历史对文学创作的影响及其在当代语境下的意义重构。研究发现，英语文学不仅是殖民历史的反映，更是后殖民时期文化抗争与身份重塑的重要场域。通过对作品中殖民者与被殖民者之间的权力博弈及文化冲突的剖析，揭示了后殖民语境下多元文化的复杂互动机制。本研究的创新点在于将后殖民理论与具体文学文本紧密结合，突破了传统文学批评的单一视角，为理解英语文学的文化内涵提供了更为立体和深刻的阐释路径。同时，研究强调了文学在全球化时代促进跨文化交流与理解的独特价值，为相关领域的进一步研究奠定了理论基础并拓展了实践方向。

Abstract
Postcolonial theory, as a significant intellectual movement that emerged in the late 20th century, has provided a new perspective for the study of English literature. This research aims to interpret power relations, cultural identity, and the construction of colonial discourse in English literary works through the fr amework of postcolonial theory. By selecting multiple representative works of English literature, this study integrates Said's Orientalism, Bhabha's concept of hybridity, and Spivak's subaltern studies, employing a method that combines close reading with critical analysis to explore the impact of colonial history on literary creation and its re-signification in contemporary contexts. The findings indicate that English literature not only reflects colonial history but also serves as a crucial arena for cultural resistance and identity reconstruction in the postcolonial era. Through an examination of the power struggles and cultural conflicts between colonizers and the colonized within these works, the study reveals the complex mechanisms of interaction among multicultural elements under postcolonial conditions. The innovation of this research lies in its integration of postcolonial theory with specific literary texts, transcending the single perspective of traditional literary criticism and offering a more multidimensional and profound interpretive approach to understanding the cultural dimensions of English literature. Furthermore, the study underscores the unique value of literature in promoting cross-cultural exchange and understanding in the age of globalization, laying a theoretical foundation and expanding practical directions for further research in related fields.
