Janice Galloway represents one of the most strikingly original voices in new Scottish fiction, which breaks with the tradition of conventional narratives looking back at the national history and looking up to larger-than-life male heroes. Instead, Galloway writes deftly crafted short stories of everyday life in contemporary settings, finding that the past informs the present and proceeding to explore how the stateless nation’s cultural heritage affects her characters. This paper analyses selected stories from Galloway’s collections Blood (1991) and Where You Find It (1996) from the perspective of trauma criticism, which seems a particularly fitting approach to the author’s often disturbing narratives of violence and abuse. The focus is on child characters and on the ways that historical trauma, as introduced by Sigmund Freud and further refined by Cathy Caruth, is passed down to them. Finally, the paper provides examples from the individual short stories which illustrate how the traumatic experience can be acknowledged, witnessed, and ultimately communicated.
珍妮丝·加洛韦代表了苏格兰新小说中最引人注目的原创声音之一,她打破了传统叙事的传统,回顾了民族历史,并仰望着具有传奇色彩的男性英雄。相反,加洛韦以当代背景下的日常生活为背景,巧妙地创作了一些短篇小说,发现过去告诉了现在,并继续探索这个无国籍国家的文化遗产是如何影响她的角色的。本文从创伤批评的角度分析了加洛韦选集《血》(1991)和《Where You Find It》(1996)中的故事,这似乎是一个特别适合作者经常令人不安的暴力和虐待叙事的方法。书的重点是儿童角色,以及西格蒙德·弗洛伊德(Sigmund Freud)介绍的、凯西·卡鲁斯(Cathy Caruth)进一步完善的历史创伤是如何传递给他们的。最后,本文提供了来自个别短篇故事的例子,说明创伤经历如何被承认、目睹并最终交流。

Romantic fantasy and the grotesque in John Keats’s “Lamia” 约翰·济慈《拉米亚》中的浪漫幻想与怪诞
Pub Date : 2022-12-21 DOI: 10.46585/absa.2022.15.2408
Małgorzata Łuczyńska-Hołdys
The present article examines the notions of fantasy, illusion and logic in Keats’s romance Lamia (1819) from the perspective of the aesthetic and literary category of the grotesque. In his text Keats puts the grotesque to two uses. First, it serves to mark his ambiguous attitude to both reason and imagination as two exclusive modes of cognition; secondly, it records his uneasiness in relation to the romantic ideal of love. Two conflicting points of view inform and battle in the poem: one might be called Romantic, as it endorses imagination and beauty as values per se; the other invites an interrogation of the idealistic approach. Neither of these two perspectives is unequivocally applauded in the text, and the Romantic grotesque appears a perfect vehicle for expressing this incongruity.
本文从怪诞的美学和文学范畴的角度,考察了济慈的浪漫小说《拉米亚》(1819)中幻想、幻觉和逻辑的概念。在济慈的文章中,怪诞有两种用途。首先,它标志着他对理性和想象作为两种相互排斥的认识方式的模棱两可的态度;其次,它记录了他对浪漫爱情理想的不安。这首诗中有两种相互冲突的观点:一种可以被称为浪漫主义,因为它支持想象和美本身的价值;另一个则引发了对理想主义方法的质疑。这两种观点在文本中都没有得到明确的赞扬,浪漫主义怪诞似乎是表达这种不协调的完美载体。

Walking to Stay Alive: Sarah Moss’s Lockdown Novel The Fell 行走求生:莎拉·莫斯的禁闭小说《坠落》
Pub Date : 2022-12-21 DOI: 10.46585/absa.2022.15.2428
B. Kucała
Sarah Moss’s novel The Fell (2021), set during the second lockdown in Britain, is an instance of fiction’s engagement with the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. Written in the midst of the calamity, the novel presents events from the limited perspective of an individual whose personal crisis is intensified by her enforced isolation and confinement. Spanning only one night, the story recounts the protagonist’s quarantine-breaking walk on the hills of the nearby Peak District as her way of coping with the overwhelming situation. This article analyses the character’s retreat into nature as her instinctive reaction to societal pressures. Drawing on Frédéric Gros’s A Philosophy of Walking and Henry David Thoreau’s essay Walking, this article centres on the trope of walking in Moss’s novel, positing that the heroine is an incarnation of Thoreau’s “walker errant.” It is argued that for Kate communing with nature, perceived as a site of otherness and an ever-renewing cycle of life and death, is vital for her spiritual balance, but it has also become a survival strategy during the current crisis.
莎拉·莫斯的小说《陨落》(2021年)以英国第二次封锁为背景,是小说与正在进行的新冠肺炎大流行接触的一个例子。这部小说写于灾难之中,从一个人的有限视角来呈现事件,她的个人危机因她的强制隔离和监禁而加剧。这个故事只持续了一个晚上,讲述了主人公在附近皮克区的山上打破隔离的散步,作为她应对压倒性局面的方式。这篇文章分析了这个角色回归自然是她对社会压力的本能反应。本文借鉴了弗莱姆·格罗斯的《行走的哲学》和亨利·大卫·梭罗的散文《行走》,以莫斯小说中行走的比喻为中心,假设女主人公是梭罗“行走的流浪者”的化身。有人认为,对凯特来说,与大自然交流是她精神平衡的关键,因为大自然被认为是他者的场所,也是生生不息的生死轮回。但在当前的危机中,这也成为了一种生存策略。

Lessons of Selborne: Selborne的教训:
Pub Date : 2022-12-21 DOI: 10.46585/absa.2022.15.2435
Tomáš Jajtner
The following paper analyses a classic work of 18th century nature writing, Gilbert White’s (1720–1793) Natural History of Selborne (1789). It contextualizes the work in the cultural and philosophical discussions of its era, and stresses White’s “economy of nature” as a continuum of spiritual, aesthetic, and economic dimensions of nature. The essay argues that this complexity presents the English naturalist’s unique contribution to the rise of nature writing and ecological thought during the emergence of Romanticism. The final discussion here  deals with the reception of White’s work beginning in the late 1960s and its significance within the ecocritical debates of our day. 
本文分析了18世纪自然文学的经典著作——吉尔伯特·怀特(1720-1793)的《塞尔伯恩自然史》(1789)。它将作品置于那个时代的文化和哲学讨论中,并强调怀特的“自然经济”是自然的精神、美学和经济维度的连续体。本文认为,这种复杂性体现了英国博物学家对浪漫主义时期自然写作和生态思想兴起的独特贡献。这里最后的讨论涉及到从20世纪60年代末开始对怀特作品的接受,以及它在当今生态批评辩论中的意义。

Perverse, Anthropocentrism, and Posthumanism in Two of Edgar Allan Poe’s Stories 埃德加·爱伦·坡两部小说中的反常、人类中心主义和后人类主义
Pub Date : 2022-12-21 DOI: 10.46585/absa.2022.15.2427

Industrialization revolutionizes human life and engenders anthropocentrism. Edgar Allan Poe ruminates on the repercussions of anthropocentrism in his stories and speculates about a posthumanist world. “The Imp of the Perverse” challenges the prevailing standard of reason and compels us to discover the underlying world that brings current situations into existence and legitimizes perverse phenomena. The three examples of the perverse, namely, circumlocution, procrastination, and abyss obsession, outline the latent coordinates of human identity: species, time, and space. The fourth instance recapitulates the three coordinates and features underdeveloped aspects. The abrupt ending of the story (“but where?”) plunges readers into textual instability. “MS. Found in a Bottle” continues the journey of the suspended plunge: anthropocentric departure, disoriented temporality, multidimensional space. The juxtaposition of these two stories illuminates Poe’s reflections on anthropocentric hubris and posthumanist speculation.
工业化革新了人类的生活,产生了人类中心主义。埃德加·爱伦·坡在他的小说中反复思考人类中心主义的影响,并推测一个后人类主义的世界。《乖谬的小鬼》挑战了普遍的理性标准,迫使我们去发现导致当前情况存在并使乖谬现象合法化的潜在世界。这三个反常的例子,即绕弯子、拖延症和深渊强迫症,勾勒出人类身份的潜在坐标:物种、时间和空间。第四例对三个坐标进行了概括,并指出了不完善的方面。故事的突然结尾(“但是在哪里?”)让读者陷入了文本的不稳定之中。“瓶子里的ms”继续了悬空的跳水之旅:以人类为中心的出发,迷失方向的时间性,多维空间。这两个故事的并列体现了坡对人类中心主义的傲慢和后人类主义的思考。

Catachrestic Divergence: Catachrestic分歧:
Pub Date : 2022-12-21 DOI: 10.46585/absa.2022.15.2433
S. Azimi, S. Ahmadzadeh, Mahmoud Reza Ghorban Sabbagh
“The Monkey Puzzle” is one of the most interesting as well as intimidatingly complex poems of Marianne Moore. It envelops Moore’s attitude as an objectivist poet moving towards the relationship between language and the world. The scarce critical attention it has received does not reflect the high status it should have in Moore’s oeuvre. The present paper builds on the body of research that does exist, and from there moves on to a detailed analysis of the poem in an attempt to show how a catachrestic divergence from significatory processes is at work all throughout this poem. The reinterpretation of the poem through a focus on its  catachrestic bounciness will not only shed light on some of its most complex imagery, but will also show how a philosophical filament runs through the whole poem and invites the readers to trespass the boundaries of the significatory walls drawn around our imagination. 
《猴子之谜》是玛丽安·摩尔最有趣也最复杂的诗歌之一。它包含了摩尔作为一个追求语言与世界关系的客观主义诗人的态度。它所受到的稀少的批评并没有反映出它在摩尔的全部作品中应有的高地位。这篇论文建立在已有的研究基础上,并从那里开始对这首诗进行详细的分析,试图展示一种从意义过程中产生的偏离是如何贯穿整首诗的。对这首诗的重新诠释,通过关注它的教理性的弹性,不仅揭示了它的一些最复杂的意象,而且还展示了哲学的细丝是如何贯穿整首诗的,并邀请读者越过我们想象中有意义的墙的边界。

Postmodern Challenge of Historiography in Contemporary Canadian Fiction: 当代加拿大小说史学的后现代挑战
Pub Date : 2022-12-21 DOI: 10.46585/absa.2022.15.2431
Vladimíra Fonfárová
As defined by Georg G. Iggers and promoted by Hayden White, the postmodern challenge of historiography calls into question the objective enquiry and truth value of history writing. Many works of fiction have embodied this trend, embracing the challenge by exploring objectivity and the retrievability of the past. In contemporary Canadian literature, such cases are also to be found. The novel Weird Sister (1999) by Kate Pullinger thematizes history and history writing, utilizes Gothic elements, and employs the elements of historiographic metafiction, e.g. as characterized by Linda Hutcheon. The book features characters representing the so‐called silent voices whose testimony had remained lost in the official historical record. This paper aims to show that the depiction of the impossibility of uncovering the truth about the past represents a significant contribution by contemporary fiction authors to the postmodern challenge of historiography, with Pullinger’s novel emerging as a notable contribution to this discourse.
正如乔治·g·伊格斯(Georg . Iggers)所定义并由海登·怀特(Hayden White)推动的那样,史学的后现代挑战质疑历史写作的客观探究和真理价值。许多小说作品都体现了这一趋势,通过探索过去的客观性和可追溯性来迎接挑战。在当代加拿大文学中,也可以找到这样的例子。凯特·普林格的小说《怪妹》(1999)以历史和历史写作为主题,利用哥特元素,并采用历史元小说的元素,例如琳达·哈钦的特点。这本书的特色人物代表了所谓的沉默的声音,他们的证词在官方历史记录中仍然丢失。本文旨在表明,揭示过去真相的不可能性的描述代表了当代小说作家对史学后现代挑战的重大贡献,而普林格的小说对这一话语的贡献引人注目。

Female Investigators: 女调查员:
Pub Date : 2022-12-21 DOI: 10.46585/absa.2022.15.2432
Šárka Bubíková, Olga Roebuck
While the crime genre may have seemed as purely masculine for the greater part of its history, feminist critics looking for the roots of female crime writing have found a rich history of both the woman crime writer as well as the woman detective. Since the 1980s there has been not only a pronounced resurgence of interest in crime fiction, but also a boom of female detectives created by female writers. Focusing on works by Robert Galbraith, Denise Mina, Linda Barnes, Dana Stabenow and S. J. Rozan, this article explores some of the ways the traditionally masculine private eye subgenre can be appropriated to accommodate a female protagonist. Comparing a variety of protagonists and narrative strategies, it further argues that, perhaps paradoxically, the originally dominantly masculine hardboiled PI tradition seems well accommodating to female (even feminist) appropriations.
虽然犯罪小说在其历史的大部分时间里似乎都是纯男性化的,但寻找女性犯罪小说根源的女权主义评论家们发现,女性犯罪作家和女性侦探都有着丰富的历史。自20世纪80年代以来,不仅对犯罪小说的兴趣明显复苏,而且女性作家创作的女侦探也大量涌现。本文以罗伯特·加尔布雷斯、丹尼斯·米娜、琳达·巴恩斯、达纳·斯塔贝诺和s·j·罗赞的作品为重点,探讨了传统的男性私家侦探亚类型如何适应女性主角。比较各种各样的主角和叙事策略,它进一步认为,也许矛盾的是,最初占主导地位的男性硬派传统似乎很好地适应了女性(甚至女权主义者)的挪用。

Transgressive Spatiality and Multiple Temporality in Jim Crace’s Arcadia 吉姆·克雷斯的《阿卡迪亚》中的越界空间性和多重时间性
Pub Date : 2022-12-21 DOI: 10.46585/absa.2022.15.2429
P. Chalupský
Arcadia (1992), Jim Crace’s most distinctively urban novel, bears the idiosyncratic features of its author’s writing: it is a deceptively simple story of vague geographical and historical setting conceived as a parable of the current world concerns, it portrays a community in a transitional moment of its existence, and it places special emphasis on spatial representations of its fictitious environment which assume metaphorical properties that convey the story’s rich ideas. Moreover, as a writer focusing on moral issues with a leftist political outlook, Crace has been consistent in his criticism of the neoliberal market economy and its negative impacts on communal values, a view which is also voiced in the novel. This paper makes use of the theoretical premises of Transmodernism as well as analytical tools of phenomenologically focused geocriticism to demonstrate that Arcadia can be subsumed within so-called transmodern fiction. This critique of globalized capitalism is carried out through sites Eric Prieto terms as the entre-deux, the in-between. Accordingly, the paper attempts to demonstrate how the novel’s liminal and heterogeneous places display non-linear and complexly interrelated temporalities which are indicative of their role within the city’s progress.
《阿卡迪亚》(1992)是吉姆·克雷斯最具特色的都市小说,具有其作者作品的独特特征:它是一个看似简单的故事,模糊的地理和历史背景被设想为当前世界关注的寓言,它描绘了一个处于其存在的过渡时刻的社区,它特别强调其虚拟环境的空间表征,这种表征具有隐喻性,传达了故事的丰富思想。此外,作为一个关注道德问题的左派政治观点的作家,格雷斯一贯批评新自由主义市场经济及其对公共价值观的负面影响,这一观点也在小说中表达出来。本文利用跨现代主义的理论前提和现象学聚焦的地理批评的分析工具来证明阿卡迪亚可以被纳入所谓的跨现代小说。这种对全球化资本主义的批判是通过埃里克·普列托称之为“中间地带”(entre-deux)的地方进行的。因此,本文试图证明小说的阈限和异质的地方如何显示非线性和复杂的相互关联的时间性,这些时间性表明了它们在城市发展中的作用。

Moreover, as a writer focusing on moral issues with a leftist political outlook, Crace has been consistent in his criticism of the neoliberal market economy and its negative impacts on communal values, a view which is also voiced in the novel.
