During the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic (a global highly contagious respiratory infection) in early 2020, Sri Lanka witnessed an upsurge in indigenous discourses. These ranged from claims by western medical doctors that pirit pæn (water blessed during Buddhist chanting) has scientifically proven health benefits to endorsements of a divinely inspired syrup. These discourses gained wide publicity and received state endorsement with the health minister consuming the syrup on national television. But by early 2021 these discourses had lost their lustre and the health minister contracted COVID. These “alternative” discourses nearly derailed the country’s vaccination program. By 2021, many who backed these ideas had lost credibility and the state and public began to place faith in vaccination. The sudden public visibility of these indigenous discourses and their swift decline speaks to the complex politics of indigeneity. This essay uses the Sri Lankan case to argue that decoloniality, which has become a global theoretical trend, in some instances is insufficiently self-reflexive of how its conceptual premises are appropriated by nativist discourses. The fetishization of the indigenous can have devastating consequences. When Sri Lankan western-trained doctors spoke on behalf of a romanticized indigeneity they were appropriating the authority of indigenous medicine, which had historically fashioned itself as a “scientifically” valid hybrid alternative. When variants of decolonial thinking promote a radically “non-modern” ontology and epistemology, a similar process of romanticization occurs. I conclude with a call for a critical practice that recognizes how the so-called “modern” and “traditional” are more apparent than real and are deeply implicated in each other. I also argue for the importance of recognizing the significance of an agonistic critical orientation that is not resistant to knowledge based on its putative “western” origins.
在2020年初2019冠状病毒病大流行(一种全球高度传染性呼吸道感染)爆发期间,斯里兰卡出现了土著话语的激增。其中包括西方医生声称的精神pæn(佛教诵经时加持的水)已被科学证明对健康有益,以及一种神圣的糖浆的代言。这些言论得到了广泛的宣传,并得到了国家的认可,卫生部长在国家电视台上食用了这种糖浆。但到2021年初,这些言论失去了光泽,卫生部长感染了COVID。这些“另类”言论几乎破坏了该国的疫苗接种计划。到2021年,许多支持这些想法的人失去了信誉,国家和公众开始信任疫苗接种。这些土著话语的突然公开露面及其迅速衰落说明了土著的复杂政治。本文以斯里兰卡为例,论证已经成为一种全球理论趋势的非殖民化,在某些情况下,其概念前提如何被本土主义话语挪用的自我反思性不足。对土著的崇拜可能会带来毁灭性的后果。当斯里兰卡受过西方训练的医生代表浪漫化的土著发言时,他们是在盗用土著医学的权威,而土著医学历来将自己塑造成一种“科学”有效的混合替代疗法。当非殖民化思想的变体提倡一种彻底的“非现代”本体论和认识论时,就会发生类似的浪漫化过程。最后,我呼吁一种批判性的实践,认识到所谓的“现代”和“传统”是如何比真实的更明显,并且彼此之间有着深刻的联系。我还认为,认识到不抵制基于假定的“西方”起源的知识的对抗式批判取向的重要性是很重要的。

Third World Crossings 第三世界过境点

The Bandung Conference of 1955 is often described as the beginning of what Vijay Prashad called the “Third World” project. While it is undeniable that intergovernmental gatherings had largely facilitated the political connections between Chinese and African leaders, no less significant in cultivating a heightened Bandung Spirit in the decolonizing world were the “transnational networks” such as the Afro-Asian People’s Solidarity Conference (1957), the Afro-Asian Writers’ Conference (1958), the Afro-Asian Women’s Conference (1961) and the Afro-Asian Journalists’ Association (1963). These platforms allowed a privileged group of writers to travel to Africa. Feng Zhidan, Du Xuan and Han Beiping were among them. Their travel notes, later published as 西非八国漫记 (Glimpses into West Africa, 1962), 西非日记 (West Africa Diary, 1964) and 非洲夜会 (Nights in Africa, 1964), carefully described local landscapes, climate and architecture, as well as their personal encounters with Africans from diverse social backgrounds outside the state apparatus. Likewise, a Malian minister and writer, Mamadou Gologo, recounted his tours in China and his deep appreciation for the country. China: A Great People, A Great Destiny (La Chine, un peuple géant, un grand destin) was published in both English and French by New World Press in Beijing in 1965. Like an X on a map, crossing marks both a place and a process, an intersection and a journey. This essay aims to explore the multi-dimensional “crossings” of individuals, texts and circulation networks that went beyond national boundaries and the Cold War binary. It argues that travelogues, as both under-explored archives and literary writings, help to reveal the tangible nature of Afro-Asian solidarity, felt through individual encounters and sometimes fragile emotional bonds.
1955年的万隆会议通常被描述为维贾伊·普拉萨德(Vijay Prashad)所说的“第三世界”计划的开端。不可否认的是,政府间会议在很大程度上促进了中国和非洲领导人之间的政治联系,而在非殖民化世界培养高度的万隆精神方面,同样重要的是“跨国网络”,如亚非人民团结会议(1957年)、亚非作家会议(1958年)、亚非妇女会议(1961年)和亚非记者协会(1963年)。这些平台让一群享有特权的作家得以前往非洲。其中包括冯志丹、杜宣和韩北平。他们的旅行记录,后来出版为《西非一瞥》(1962)、《西非日记》(1964)和《非洲之夜》(1964),仔细描述了当地的风景、气候和建筑,以及他们与国家机器之外来自不同社会背景的非洲人的个人接触。同样,马里部长兼作家马马杜·戈洛戈(Mamadou Gologo)讲述了他的中国之行,以及他对中国的深切赞赏。《中国:伟大的人民,伟大的命运》(La Chine, un People gassiant, un grand Destiny)于1965年由北京新世界出版社以英文和法文出版。就像地图上的X一样,十字路口标志着一个地方和一个过程,一个十字路口和一段旅程。本文旨在探讨超越国界和冷战二元对立的个体、文本和流通网络的多维度“交叉”。它认为,游记,作为未被充分发掘的档案和文学作品,有助于揭示亚非团结的有形本质,通过个人遭遇和有时脆弱的情感纽带来感受。

Paradigms of Power in Postcolonial Translation 后殖民翻译中的权力范式
Pub Date : 2022-12-18 DOI: 10.1080/1369801x.2022.2157307

This essay examines Mohammad Rabie’s Otared (Arabic 2014; English 2016) and Ahmed Saadawi’s Frankenstein in Baghdad (Arabic 2013; English 2018) with an emphasis on the transformation of dystopia. I argue that Rabie and Saadawi have constructed their dystopian novels under the influence of Western literature while being directly affected by the dire political situations that they find themselves in. Rabie engages with the Arab Spring and the far-reaching impact of colonialism, whereas Saadawi deals with Iraq’s sombre realities against the backdrop of the American-led invasion in 2003. Their respective accounts are not merely a recycling of Western genres but are also profoundly impacted by the prevailing circumstances while being portrayed on the global stage via translation. In this way, they manifest a powerful insight into the translation of Arabic dystopian fiction, which is shaped by colonial and postcolonial power relations. In the proliferation of Arabic dystopian fiction, translation acts as a double-edged sword. On the one hand, translation specifies how colonialist forces impose Western influence upon the Arabic culture. On the other hand, it becomes a powerful tool to expose Western readers to the Arab people’s harrowing postcolonial and post-revolutionary experiences.
本文考察了穆罕默德·拉比的《Otared》(阿拉伯语,2014;艾哈迈德·萨达维的《巴格达的弗兰肯斯坦》(阿拉伯语2013;(2018),重点是反乌托邦的转变。我认为Rabie和Saadawi在西方文学的影响下构建了他们的反乌托邦小说,同时也直接受到了他们所处的可怕政治局势的影响。Rabie关注阿拉伯之春和殖民主义的深远影响,而Saadawi则在2003年以美国为首的入侵背景下处理伊拉克的严峻现实。他们各自的叙述不仅是对西方体裁的重复,而且在通过翻译在全球舞台上被描绘出来的同时,也受到了当时环境的深刻影响。通过这种方式,他们对阿拉伯反乌托邦小说的翻译表现出了强有力的洞察力,这些小说受到殖民和后殖民权力关系的影响。在阿拉伯反乌托邦小说的泛滥中,翻译是一把双刃剑。一方面,翻译说明了殖民势力如何将西方的影响强加给阿拉伯文化。另一方面,它成为向西方读者展示阿拉伯人民悲惨的后殖民和后革命经历的有力工具。

The Colonial period of Goa, a small southwestern state of India, colonized by Portugal for over 450 years, is often considered a period of pollution and impurity. This essay seeks to understand the role of purity and pollution rituals in the religious conversions of sixteenth-century Goa. We undertake to closely analyze the fictionalized instances of conversions in the select novels and draw references from historical documents. The essay combines socio-literary and historical approaches to the subject to present a broader tapestry of the religious upheavals in Goa, mainly in the sixteenth century.

Decolonizing Irishness: Assertions of Afro-Irish Self-Determination in Nicky Gogan and Paul Rowley’s Seaview and Melatu Uche Okorie’s This Hostel Life 非殖民化的爱尔兰:在尼基·戈根和保罗·罗利的《海景》和梅拉图·乌切·奥克里的《旅社生活》中对非裔爱尔兰人自决的主张
Pub Date : 2022-12-16 DOI: 10.1080/1369801X.2022.2157311

Nicky Gogan and Paul Rowley's 2008 documentary film Seaview and Melatu Uche Okorie's 2018 short-story collection This Hostel Life raise questions about Ireland's postcolonial position on the economic and geographic periphery of Europe amid the added complexity of emerging racial formations. These texts critically depict the racial and cultural barriers that produce a voyeuristic bifurcation between an implied white Irish citizen and a racialized non-citizen. Seaview invokes this voyeuristic bifurcation to critique the segregation and isolation of asylum seekers detained in Direct Provision (DP) centres from the rest of Irish society. Yet moments of ambiguity in filmic strategies of who is looking and who is seen emphasize ongoing colonial and neocolonial histories that continue to impact identity formations in Ireland. The possibilities and limitations of representing Afro-Irish self-determination arises as a site of contestation in Okorie's 2018 collection of three stories This Hostel Life. The second short story, “Under the Awning,” is a frame narrative that reclaims the liminal elements of second-person narration to assert emerging forms of Afro-Irish self-determination. This story exposes layers of racialization as it also indicates multiple possible voices materializing across multiple possible Irelands. In the seemingly disparate genres and media of documentary film and the short story, Seaview and This Hostel Life structurally challenge Irish racial formations that conform to a default colonial white norm. Reading these texts together exposes connections between postcolonial national identity and colonial racial formations that postcolonial nations willingly or unwillingly inherit through globalized economies and internationally integrated immigration reforms. By critically challenging racializing contexts and narratives during and after the Celtic Tiger, Seaview and This Hostel Life expand the representational possibilities for Afro-Irish self-determination in twenty-first century Irish literature and film.
Nicky Gogan和Paul Rowley在2008年的纪录片《海景》和Melatu Uche Okorie在2018年的短篇小故事集《旅社生活》提出了关于爱尔兰在欧洲经济和地理边缘的后殖民地位的问题,以及新兴种族形成的复杂性。这些文本批判性地描述了种族和文化障碍,这些障碍在一个隐含的爱尔兰白人公民和一个种族化的非公民之间产生了偷窥的分歧。Seaview引用这种偷窥的分歧来批评直接提供中心(DP)拘留的寻求庇护者与爱尔兰社会其他部分的隔离和孤立。然而,在电影策略中,谁在看谁被看的模糊时刻强调了持续的殖民和新殖民历史,这些历史继续影响着爱尔兰的身份形成。在Okorie 2018年的三篇故事集《This Hostel Life》中,代表非裔爱尔兰人自决的可能性和局限性成为了争论的焦点。第二个短篇小说《遮阳篷下》(Under The umbrella)是一个框架叙事,它重新利用了第二人称叙事的有限元素,以断言非裔爱尔兰人自决的新形式。这个故事揭示了种族化的层次,因为它也表明了多种可能的声音在多种可能的爱尔兰具体化。在纪录片和短篇小说这两种看似不同的类型和媒介中,《海景》和《旅馆生活》从结构上挑战了爱尔兰的种族形态,这种形态符合默认的殖民白人规范。将这些文本一起阅读,可以揭示后殖民国家认同与殖民种族形成之间的联系,这种联系是后殖民国家通过全球化经济和国际一体化移民改革自愿或不自愿地继承的。在《凯尔特之虎》期间和之后,《海景》和《旅社生活》批判性地挑战了种族化的背景和叙事,扩大了非裔爱尔兰人在21世纪爱尔兰文学和电影中自决的表现可能性。

These texts critically depict the racial and cultural barriers that produce a voyeuristic bifurcation between an implied white Irish citizen and a racialized non-citizen. Seaview invokes this voyeuristic bifurcation to critique the segregation and isolation of asylum seekers detained in Direct Provision (DP) centres from the rest of Irish society. Yet moments of ambiguity in filmic strategies of who is looking and who is seen emphasize ongoing colonial and neocolonial histories that continue to impact identity formations in Ireland. The possibilities and limitations of representing Afro-Irish self-determination arises as a site of contestation in Okorie's 2018 collection of three stories This Hostel Life. The second short story, “Under the Awning,” is a frame narrative that reclaims the liminal elements of second-person narration to assert emerging forms of Afro-Irish self-determination. This story exposes layers of racialization as it also indicates multiple possible voices materializing across multiple possible Irelands. In the seemingly disparate genres and media of documentary film and the short story, Seaview and This Hostel Life structurally challenge Irish racial formations that conform to a default colonial white norm. Reading these texts together exposes connections between postcolonial national identity and colonial racial formations that postcolonial nations willingly or unwillingly inherit through globalized economies and internationally integrated immigration reforms. By critically challenging racializing contexts and narratives during and after the Celtic Tiger, Seaview and This Hostel Life expand the representational possibilities for Afro-Irish self-determination in twenty-first century Irish literature and film.","PeriodicalId":19001,"journal":{"name":"Molecular interventions","volume":"27 1","pages":"775 - 804"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82303977","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
