This paper examines Chinese American female playwright Jenny Lim's Paper Angels (1978) and its phase of goal-oriented subjectivity through David Leiwei Li's literary terms, “claiming America,” and “whither Asia.” Along with Li's terms, Jacques Lacan's psychological term, “entering the Symbolic” can be also used to understand Chinese American's diasporic subjects in Paper Angels. The early Chinese Americans needed to hold on to diasporic imagination, called national imaginary. While doing so, their subjectivities were represented as the subjectivity searching for the American dream or returning to the home country. Paper Angels shows how their both of two Chinese and American identities are influenced in their immigrant life in Angel Island, which is neither China nor America, and how their Chinese American subjectivity is constructed.
Abstract
This paper examines Chinese American female playwright Jenny Lim's Paper Angels (1978) and its phase of goal-oriented subjectivity through David Leiwei Li's literary terms, “claiming America,” and “whither Asia.” Along with Li's terms, Jacques Lacan's psychological term, “entering the Symbolic” can be also used to understand Chinese American's diasporic subjects in Paper Angels. The early Chinese Americans needed to hold on to diasporic imagination, called national imaginary. While doing so, their subjectivities were represented as the subjectivity searching for the American dream or returning to the home country. Paper Angels shows how their both of two Chinese and American identities are influenced in their immigrant life in Angel Island, which is neither China nor America, and how their Chinese American subjectivity is constructed.
