‘I Choose Life’: Negation, Agency, and Utopian Hope in Tayeb Salih’s Season of Migration to the North. “我选择生活”:塔伊布·萨利赫北迁季节中的否定、代理和乌托邦希望。

Tayeb Salih’s Season of Migration to the North dramatizes the violence of colonialism and patriarchy and their impact on the African psyche. This article shifts from the prevailing scholarship on Mustafa, the main protagonist, to locate hope in what one does, not merely as an abstract concept. The unnamed narrator exemplifies Salih’s vision of a postcolonial subject that recognizes the perils of binary thinking and aspires instead toward an ethic acceptance of vulnerability and difference. Invoking Tia DeNora’s conception of hope as “an orientation to action” and “a space for possibility,” I show how the narrator’s embrace of hope is linked to and complicated by the effects of colonialism and patriarchy in his Sudanese village. Overall, the aim of this article is threefold: first, to examine Salih’s critique of female negation and male hegemony; second, to highlight Salih’s rejection of passivity and fatalism–how both undermine individual and collective agency and reinforce female negation in society; and, lastly, to consider Salih’s postcolonial utopianism and privileging of autonomy.
塔伊布·萨利赫(Tayeb Salih)的《北方移民季》(Season of Migration to the North)戏剧化地描述了殖民主义和父权制的暴力,以及它们对非洲人心理的影响。本文从主流学者对主人公穆斯塔法的研究转向将希望定位在一个人的行动中,而不仅仅是一个抽象的概念。这位未具名的叙述者体现了萨利赫对后殖民主体的看法,即认识到二元思维的危险,并渴望在道德上接受脆弱性和差异。引用蒂亚·德诺拉(Tia DeNora)关于希望是“行动的方向”和“可能性的空间”的概念,我展示了叙述者对希望的拥抱是如何与他所在的苏丹村庄的殖民主义和父权制的影响联系在一起并使其复杂化的。总体而言,本文的目的有三个方面:首先,考察萨利赫对女性否定和男性霸权的批判;其次,强调萨利赫对被动性和宿命论的拒绝——这两者是如何破坏个人和集体的能动性,并加强社会对女性的否定;最后,考虑萨利赫的后殖民乌托邦主义和自治特权。

Imagining Utopia through Communities in Mohsin Hamid’s Exit West 在莫辛·哈米德的《西方出口》中通过社区想象乌托邦

Mohsin Hamid’s novel, Exit West (2017) takes place in a world where magical doorways allow refugees passage between countries. Following the couple Saeed and Nadia – refugees from an unnamed city undergoing fundamentalist insurrection – the novel explores their grappling amid different political tensions. While commentators have discussed the way Hamid re-frames migration as form of connectivity, and the portals as utopian forms of escape, this article investigates the economic specificities of such connectivity, through three near-future communities that Hamid imagines for Nadia and Saeed: a Kensington townhouse reclaimed by refugees, the “London Halo” work-for-housing program, and the shanty city of Marin, San Francisco. These collectives defy the logic of capitalist realism (Fisher). In this way, utopian potential exists within the novel both in terms of magical thinking against the system (Adorno) and as embodied forms of solidarity amid crisis (Žižek and Jameson).
莫辛·哈米德的小说《西部出口》(2017)发生在一个神奇的门口允许难民在国家之间通行的世界。这部小说讲述了赛义德和娜迪亚夫妇的故事,他们是来自一个无名城市的难民,正在经历原教旨主义叛乱。小说探讨了他们在不同政治紧张局势中的斗争。尽管评论员们讨论了哈米德如何将移民重新定义为一种连通性,将门户网站重新定义为乌托邦式的逃离形式,但本文通过哈米德为纳迪亚和赛义德设想的三个近期社区,调查了这种连通性的经济特异性:难民开垦的肯辛顿联排别墅、,以及旧金山的贫民区马林。这些集体违背了资本主义现实主义的逻辑(费舍尔)。通过这种方式,乌托邦的潜力存在于小说中,既有反对体制的神奇思维(阿多诺),也有危机中团结的具体形式(日泽克和詹姆森)。

South Asian Village and the (Im)Possibility of Utopia. Tarashankar Bandyopadhyay’s The Tale of Hansuli Turn 南亚村庄与乌托邦的可能性。Tarashankar Bandyopadhyay的《Hansuli Turn的故事
IF 0.3 Q2 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2022-12-19 DOI: 10.24193/mjcst.2022.14.08
Binayak Roy
Tarashankar Bandyopadhyay’s The Tale of Hansuli Turn depicts a utopic, autochthonous, and indigenous rural community, the Kahars, in a state of transition. The marginalized community is certainly not a homogeneous and monolithic one, there are stratifications in professional identities; women are forced to migrate to be employed in workshops or rail-line employment. The airbase and airplanes during World War II signify offstage imperial and existential catastrophe. The narrative celebrates change and subtly sympathizes with the rebel Karali, who has embraced the gospel of development and is a harbinger of radical change, returning to Hansuli Turn, with the promise of a new beginning after the destruction of the old order. A “New Hansuli Turn” is born after negotiations with the colonial order. Unlike many other postcolonial texts, The Tale of Hansuli Turn re-conceives the present by re-telling the past without being nostalgic. Its vision of the future is a transformation of the present.
Tarashankar Bandyopadhyay的《Hansuli Turn的故事》描绘了一个乌托邦式的、本土的、土著的农村社区——处于转型状态的Kahars。被边缘化的群体当然不是一个同质的、单一的群体,在职业身份上存在分层;妇女被迫迁移到车间或铁路工作。第二次世界大战期间的空军基地和飞机象征着幕后的帝国和生存灾难。故事歌颂了变化,并微妙地同情了叛逆者卡拉利,他信奉发展的福音,是激进变革的先驱,在旧秩序被摧毁后,他带着一个新的开始的承诺回到了韩苏里转弯。“新韩水里转向”是在与殖民秩序协商后诞生的。与许多其他后殖民时期的文本不同,《韩水里转的故事》在没有怀旧的情况下,通过重新讲述过去来重新构想现在。它对未来的展望是对现在的改造。

Introduction: Hope and Utopia in Global South Literature 导论:全球南方文学中的希望与乌托邦

Within academic disciplines, the category of Global South is highly contested with no agreements on the definition of the term. One cannot deny the amorphous nature of the term, yet its gravitational pull can be potentially effective in connecting the different forms of ongoing exploitation – both of humans and more-than-humans. This special issue aims to focus on how to think of the episteme of the Global South in ways that could be enabling, liberating, capacious enough to sharpen our imaginative and performative utopian lens.
在学术学科中,“全球南方”这一类别备受争议,对该术语的定义没有达成一致意见。人们不能否认这个词的无定形性质,但它的引力可能会有效地将不同形式的持续剥削联系起来——包括人类和人类。本期特刊旨在关注如何看待全球南方的认识论,这种认识论可以使我们变得有能力、解放、有足够的空间来强化我们富有想象力和表演性的乌托邦视角。

Translating the Global South in Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s Americanah and Elaine Castillo’s America is Not the Heart 在中国翻译全球南方阿曼达·恩戈齐·阿迪奇的《美国人》和伊莱恩·卡斯蒂略的《美国不是心灵》

My article aims to examine the concept of the Global South (Russel West-Pavlov) as it is represented in two contemporary novels, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s Americanah and Elaine Castillo’s America is not the heart. Firstly, the article discusses the novels as representative of “born translated literature” (Rebecca L. Walkowitz), identifying how their content and formal characteristics reflect such a framing. Secondly, I discuss the Southern identity of the protagonists in relation (Pashmina Murthy) to the places and the characters they relate to. Thus, my article proposes an analysis of the Southern identity performed by the characters in the public space and within their interaction with other communities from the Global South.
我的文章旨在研究全球南方(罗素·韦斯特-巴甫洛夫)的概念,因为它在两部当代小说中得到了体现,奇曼达·恩戈齐·阿迪奇的《美国人》和伊莱恩·卡斯蒂略的《美国不是心脏》。首先,本文讨论了作为“天生的翻译文学”代表人物的小说(丽贝卡·沃尔科维茨),确定其内容和形式特征是如何反映这种框架的。其次,我讨论了主人公的南方身份与他们所涉及的地方和人物的关系(Pashmina Murthy)。因此,我的文章提出了对南方身份的分析,这些身份是由公共空间中的人物以及他们与全球南方其他社区的互动所表现出来的。

Bioprecarity, Disposability, and the Poetics of Hope in Swarga 施瓦尔加的生物性、可处置性与希望诗学
IF 0.3 Q2 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2022-12-19 DOI: 10.24193/mjcst.2022.14.02
O. Dwivedi
This article conceptualizes the everyday existential crisis of man, nature, including the planetary life as bioprecarity. It looks at the neoliberal capitalist economy that renders bios precarious. The bios incudes humans, more-than-humans, and natural resources in the Global South, available for value-generation of a select few. The article argues that disposability of bios triggers and expands neoliberal economy, thus turning entire life forms on the planet precarious. This horrendous task of erasing life-sustaining conditions and strengthening value-generation process can be abundantly found in Ambikasutan Mangad’s novel, Swarga (2017), which narrates the precarious man-nature relationship as a result of the extractive forces of neoliberalism. In the last section of the article, I turn to Phillip E Wegner’s conceptualization of “close-critical reading” paradigm as a poetics of hope in these dark times, thus highlighting how hope nourishes the fight of Enmakaje people against the capital-state complex.
本文将人、自然,包括行星生命的日常生存危机概念化为生物不确定性。它着眼于使bios岌岌可危的新自由主义资本主义经济。生物包括人类,而不是人类,以及全球南方的自然资源,可供少数人产生价值。文章认为,生物的可处置性引发并扩大了新自由主义经济,从而使地球上的整个生命形式变得岌岌可危。Ambikasutan Mangad的小说《Swarga》(2017)充分体现了消除维持生命的条件和加强价值生成过程的可怕任务,该小说讲述了新自由主义的榨取力量导致的不稳定的人与自然关系。在文章的最后一节,我转向菲利普·E·韦格纳将“近距离批判性阅读”范式概念化为黑暗时代的希望诗学,从而强调希望如何滋养恩马卡杰人对抗资本国家情结的斗争。
