Abstract

Abstract:Detailing the traumatic experiences an individual, a family, and a local community in Jiangnan area underwent amidst the Taiping-Qing civil war (18511864), Shen Zi's Bikou riji raises questions about the diary as a literary, cultural, and historical phenomenon during catastrophic times. Written on used slips of paper of various sizes and pasted on the back of old account books, the manuscript registers numerous temporal dimensions for which the war serves as a reference point. Exploring this collage-like, patchwork manuscript as an archeological site reveals two essential aspects of diaries: the references to the self and the temporal structure with implied narrativity. Ultimately, Shen Zi's heavily edited, patchwork manuscript diary showcases how a diary synthesizes the experiences from the realms of both the personal and the historical within the temporal structure of the everyday in catastrophic times.

缝合伤口的文字:太平天国内战时期的手稿日记(1851–64)
摘要:沈的《碧口日记》详细叙述了太平清内战(18511864)期间江南地区一个个体、一个家庭和一个地方社区所经历的创伤经历,提出了对日记作为一种灾难时期的文学、文化和历史现象的质疑。手稿写在各种大小的旧纸条上,贴在旧账簿的背面,记录了战争作为参考点的许多时间维度。将这幅拼贴式的拼凑手稿作为考古遗址进行探索,揭示了日记的两个重要方面:对自我的提及和具有隐含叙事性的时间结构。最终,沈子的大量编辑、拼凑的手稿日记展示了日记如何在灾难时期的日常时间结构中综合个人和历史领域的经历。
