Abstract

The “Oath of the Peach Garden” in the novel Gunga Din Highway by Chinese American writer Frank Chin originates from the Chinese classical historical novel Romance of The Three Kingdoms. This thesis is meant to contrast the “Oath of the Peach Garden ” in Chinese and Western cultural contexts to explore their differences and then analyze the three images in the brothers of the oath of the peach garden in Gunga Din Highway from the perspective of post-colonialism in order to figure out the underlying reasons of the transformation and explore the meaning of Chinese traditional stories to Chinese American when they are searching their cultural identity in the dilemma among Chinese and American contexts.
