美国人的“盎格鲁撒克逊”身份哪来的？因为在英格兰，这个词完全是历史背景，并不代表特定族群，美国人选择认同这个特定的历史群体显得很奇怪

As a brit i've always been confused with some americans identifying as Anglo-Saxon.. How exactly are they Anglo Saxon? considering Anglo Saxons are not really a racial group at all in the UK
我是个英国人，一直很困惑于一些美国人自认为是盎格鲁撒克逊人……他们怎么可能是盎格鲁撒克逊人？因为盎格鲁-撒克逊人在英国根本就不是一个族群。

it seems odd that they would focus on this singular group of Germanic settlers

It's used more like a political term. The Victorian historians of England had a hard on for Anglo Saxons. They looked back at pre-Norman England as some ideal political state with elected kings. Then the Normans came along & imposed feudal tyranny. In this telling the Victorians saw the next centuries as a struggle to reassert Anglo Saxon political principles of accountability & elections against Norman tyranny with big events like the Magna Carta as part of this tradition of Anglo Saxon resistance.
This theory was pretty much accepted across the board in England in the Victorian period & so infected the US who looked at their constitution as a follow up to the Magna Carta & so some frxd themselves as following that tradition. There is also a religious aspect, it's usually always referring to a Protestant.
As others have pointed out there is a racial element to it. Probably it was always there in the Victorian England telling but I don't think it's controversial to say some circles in the US it has been used to distinguish between other "white" immigrants that entered the US on mass such as Italians, Irish.
这个词的使用更偏向于政治术语。英国维多利亚时代的历史学家们对盎格鲁-撒克逊人情有独钟。他们回顾前诺曼时代的英国，认为那是理想的政治状态，那时候有民选的国王。然后诺曼人来了，他们强行实施封建暴政。在这一叙事中，维多利亚时代的人将诺曼时代视为斗争的世纪，用像《大宪章》这样的大事件作为盎格鲁-撒克逊人抵抗的传统，重申盎格鲁-撒克逊人的政治原则和选举，反对诺曼暴政。
在维多利亚时代的英国，这种理论被广泛的接受，也感染了美国，因为美国认为他们的宪法是《大宪章》的延续，所以有些人认为自己遵循了这一传统。还有宗教方面，通常指的是新教徒。
正如其他人指出的那样，里面有着种族因素。也许在维多利亚时代的英国，这种因素就一直存在。我认为，美国的某些圈子用它来区分其他来到美国的“白人”移民如意大利人、爱尔兰人，这是没有争议的。

It's worth noting that this phenomenon was broadly present throughout Europe. As nation-states tried to more sharply define national identity during the 19th century they frequently pulled deep from their history to do so (to an extent of misrepresenting or even fictionalizing it). So the French for instance would more heavily pull on their "Gaelic" heritage and subsequent romanization despite the "Franks" themselves being essentially a more recent splinter from the main Germanic group.
In that context references to an "Anglo-Saxon" heritage was simultaneously a way to differentiate Britain from the mainland and their upper classes Norman heritage as well as reinforce English supremacy amongst their Celtic subjects (Ireland, Scotland, Wales).
有一点值得注意，这种现象广泛存在于整个欧洲。在19世纪，当民族国家试图更明确地定义民族身份时，他们经常从历史中挖掘(有时候会歪曲，甚至是虚构)。以法国人为例，他们倾向于继承“高卢人”的传承和随后的罗马化，尽管“法兰克人”基本上是来自日耳曼族群中分离出来的一个分支。
在这种背景下，提及“盎格鲁-撒克逊” 传承，既是将不列颠与欧洲大陆和诺曼人传承区分开来的一种方法，也是要巩固英格兰在他们的凯尔特臣民(爱尔兰、苏格兰、威尔士)中的优势地位。

I really don't think thats particularly accurate. W.A.S.P. is a pretty common term, and plenty of people consider themselves Anglo-Saxon just because thats the term they've always heard used to describe the group they belong to, and don't have any racist subtext to using it at all.

In America (at least in my experience) the simple idea of "Anglo Saxon" isn't really what people identify with.
Americans who would claim an identity in that vein tend to draw stronger ties to maybe "English" heritage, but more so they tend to call attention to "original colonial" ties.
But, as the Mcmanus pointed out above, "Protestant" comes into play too, though ironically, actually being Protestant doesn't have much to do with it (you could be Baptist, or non-denominational, or completely non-religious, doesn't matter). What matters is that its just part of the descxtor of that "Original colonist, pilgrim profile."
And thus the term"WASP" (n) or "WASPy" (adj) an arguably derisive or pejorative acronym for "white, Anglo Saxon, Protestant" that is really meant to express that someone/someone's family is the white, with no notable aspect of minority or immigrant flavor to them, and often the term is meant to carry a connotation of some "privileged" status. I.e., they come from "the right kind" of upper middle class suburban family and are treated as such.
在美国，人们并不是真的认同“盎格鲁-撒克逊”这个简单的概念，至少以我的经验来看是这样。
会主张一种身份的美国人，他们倾向于联系到“英格兰人”传承，但更倾向于唤起人们对“原始殖民”联系的关注。
但是，正如网友Mcmanus在上面指出的，“新教”也有着影响，尽管具有讽刺意味的是，实际上成为新教徒与它没有多大关系（你可以是浸信会的，或者非宗派的，或者完全没有宗教，都无所谓）。重要的是，它描述了“原始殖民者，朝圣者”的一部分。
因此，“WASP”（名词）和“WASPy”（形容词）可以说是“白人、盎格鲁撒克逊人、新教徒” 的嘲讽或贬义的首字母缩略，真正的意思是表达某人或某人的家族是白人，没有明显的少数民族外表，而且这个词通常意味着带有某种“特权”地位的内涵。也就是说，他们是来自中产阶级上层家族，并有着对等的待遇。

I don’t think it has as much to do with actual ethnic heritage as it did with class and racial struggles between established, ethnically English persons in places like Boston and New York during the waves of immigration in the 19th and early 20th centuries. WASP became a pejorative for the image of wealthy, ascot-wearing people who were legacies at Ivy League universities because their families built their wealth in the 1830s and summered in posh places while the lower classes worked in factories.
我认为这与种族传承没有太大关系，而是与19 世纪到 20 世纪早期移民潮中波士顿、纽约等地的老牌英国人之间的阶级、种族斗争有关。WASP是常春藤盟校出身、打着领结、富人形象的贬损，因为他们的家族在1830年代积累了财富，在豪华的地方避暑，而下层阶级则在工厂里工作。

I have. In America people just think it means white, but the right kind of white.
Most recent was a dude I worked with, very dark skinned, family was from Mexico but he insisted that he was "Spanish". He referred to himself as "Anglo Saxon" to me a few times.
When I asked him "I thought you were Spanish" he said "Spanish people can be white". Dude looked like a cross between a Pima Indian who spent his days in the sun and a Berber who spent his days in the sun. This is America.

Yeah that always struck me as a funny two groups to mix. They came at the same time, but were very different. The Saxons were west Germanic, larger in population and more hierarchical, and the Angles were Suebic, more rural, remote, and “Primitive”. They kinda merged later, but you’re right- They’re not the same.
是的，我总觉得这两个种族混在一起很有趣。他们同时到来，但是区别很大。撒克逊人是西日耳曼人，人口较多，等级森严；而盎格鲁人是苏维比人，更农村、偏远和“原始”。它们后来合并了，但你说得对，他们不一样。
