According to Gabriela Spector-Mersel there are no cultural models for old men, in comparison to the easily available scripts in early and middle adulthood. As such, this is a considerably unsettling phase of negotiation for men as they need to (re)define their identity and their sense of masculinity particularly when aging. The masculinity embodied by the cowboy prototype certainly fits this model that sees masculinities as a “temporal script” (67). In the classic 1979 movie The Electric Horseman, directed by Sydney Pollack, the factor of age runs as a subtext that not only informs masculine identity but also takes on a broader significance to express an important cultural transformation. Instead of simply focusing on the effects of the passing of time for an individual man, the film explores the changes in US society through one of its most celebrated cultural icons, the cowboy. To analyze Sonny Steele’s distinctiveness within hegemonic ageless narratives in The Electric Horseman, this article will set him alongside two archetypal figures of the genre of the western: the cowboy and the horse, which serves as a key vehicle of the character’s own exalted masculinity. This critical approach shows how the prevailing model of youthful or ageless masculinity in cowboy stories can thus be challenged.
根据Gabriela Spector-Mersel的说法,与成年早期和中期容易获得的脚本相比,老年人没有文化模式。因此,对于男性来说,这是一个相当令人不安的谈判阶段,因为他们需要(重新)定义自己的身份和男子气概,尤其是在上了年纪的时候。牛仔原型所体现的男子气概当然符合这种将男子气概视为“时间脚本”的模式(67)。1979年西德尼·波拉克(Sydney Pollack)执导的经典电影《电骑士》(the Electric Horseman)中,年龄因素作为一种潜台词,不仅传达了男性身份,还具有更广泛的意义,表达了一种重要的文化转型。这部电影并没有简单地关注时间的流逝对一个人的影响,而是通过美国最著名的文化偶像之一——牛仔——来探索美国社会的变化。为了分析桑尼·斯蒂尔在《电骑士》中霸道的不老叙事中的独特之处,本文将他与西部片类型的两个原型人物放在一起:牛仔和马,这是角色自己崇高的男子气概的关键载体。这种批判性的方法表明,牛仔故事中流行的年轻或不老的男子气概模式是如何受到挑战的。

ABSTRACT: The aim of this essay is to explore body representation and its significance in David Foster Wallace’s novel Infinite Jest (1996). By doing so, it will correlate (ab)use and domination of entertainment to the description of the particular corporeality present in the novel, which is portrayed as being malleable, disconnected, machine-like and monstrous. Although published in the late 90s, the novel anticipated most accurately how entertainment would be consumed in contemporary times and its possible effects on individuals. Thereby, this essay analyzes how the body is shaped in Infinite Jest through the use of a current neuropsychological perspective and contemporary theories of the self as an attempt to reflect upon Wallace’s description of the body and its relation to the world of entertainment. RESUMEN: El objetivo de este trabajo es explorar la representacion del cuerpo y su significado en la novela de David Foster Wallace, Infinite Jest (1996). Para ello, se relacionara el (ab)uso y dominacion del entretenimiento con la descripcion de la propia corporalidad presente en la novela, en la que se representa ductil, inconexa, mecanica y monstruosa. Aun siendo publicado a finales de los 90, la novela anticipa con gran exactitud como el entretenimiento iba a ser consumido en tiempos contemporaneos, asi como sus posibles efectos en el individuo. Por este motivo, el presente ensayo analiza como el cuerpo es moldeado en Infinite Jest a traves del uso de perspectivas neuropsicologicas y de teorias actuales sobre la identidad, en un intento de reflexionar sobre los usos que Wallace hace de la descripcion del cuerpo y su relacion con el mundo del entretenimiento.
摘要:本文旨在探讨大卫·福斯特·华莱士小说《无尽的玩笑》(1996)中的身体表征及其意义。通过这样做,它将娱乐的使用和支配与小说中对特定肉体的描述联系起来,这种肉体被描绘成可塑的、不连贯的、像机器一样的、可怕的。虽然出版于上世纪90年代末,但这部小说最准确地预测了当代娱乐消费方式及其对个人可能产生的影响。因此,本文通过运用当前的神经心理学视角和当代自我理论,分析了《无尽的玩笑》中身体的塑造方式,试图反思华莱士对身体的描述及其与娱乐世界的关系。在大卫·福斯特·华莱士的长篇小说《无尽的玩笑》(1996)中,作者探讨了对世界意义的表现。Para ello,这些相对的概念(ab)用支配性的概念来描述固有的实体,呈现在小说中,具有代表性的,不连贯的,机械的和怪异的。在1990年的最后一年里,《小说》期待着一种更精确的、更广泛的、更广泛的、更广泛的、更广泛的、更广泛的、更广泛的、更广泛的、更广泛的、更广泛的、对个人可能产生的影响。在《无尽的玩笑》一书中,作者提出了“理性动机”的概念、“理性分析”的概念、“神经心理学”的概念、“现实的理性认知”的概念、“反思性的理性认知”的概念、“理性的理性认知”的概念、“理性的理性认知”的概念。

ABSTRACT: The Bondwoman’s Narrative (1857) is a novel in which the black female slave Hannah Crafts aims at the remodeling of her society and to gain self–assertion through a deeply Christian commitment and a total and honest respect to the values it impinges drawing broadly on the Bible and reshaping biblical imagery to convey her message and to submit her subjectivity and her Americanness. By using the national continuum of jeremiad rhetoric and her attachment to the values of the Christian creed, the novel partakes and yet takes a different direction from slave narratives by cagily forerunning Du Bois’s praised theory of the double consciousness. In so doing, it positions its protagonist as the first black female that absorbs and displays an identity that eventually becomes successful for it installs herself within the realm of home premised on the longed Puritan myth of the (African) American City upon a Hill which allows her to be a proper (African) American citizen. RESUMEN: The Bondwoman’s Narrative (1857) es una novela en la que la esclava negra Hannah Crafts se propone remodelar su sociedad y redefinirse a traves de una ferrea adhesion cristiana y un absoluto respeto a los valores que de ella se coligen basandose en la Biblia y remodelando el imaginario cristiano para vehicular su mensaje y propugnar su subjetividad y su americanidad. Al utilizar el resorte nacional de la jeremiada y su adhesion a los valores del credo cristiano, la novela se basa en, y a la vez diverge de, las narraciones de esclavos adelantandose subrepticiamente a la aclamada teoria de la doble conciencia de Du Bois. De este modo, situa a la protagonista como la primera esclava negra que absorbe y presenta una identidad que, al final, deviene en triunfo puesto que la instala en la esfera del hogar dentro de su anhelada Ciudad sobre la Colina (afro)americana y le permite ser una ciudadana americana per se.
摘要:《女奴的故事》(1857)是一部黑人女奴汉娜·克拉夫特的小说,小说旨在重塑她所处的社会,并通过对基督教信仰的深刻承诺和对价值观的全面而诚实的尊重来获得自我主张,广泛借鉴圣经,重塑圣经意象来传达她的信息,并屈服于她的主体性和美国特征。通过使用哀哭修辞的全国统一体和她对基督教信条价值观的依恋,小说通过谨慎地超前杜波依斯备受赞誉的双重意识理论,参与了奴隶叙事,但又采取了不同的方向。在这样做的过程中,它将主人公定位为第一位黑人女性,她吸收并展示了一种身份,最终取得了成功,因为她把自己安置在了家乡的领域里,这个领域的前提是长久以来的清教徒神话,即山上的(非洲裔)美国城市,这让她成为了一名真正的(非洲裔)美国公民。简介:《女奴的故事》(1857)是一部中篇小说,她的作品是《黑人的故事》,汉娜·克拉夫特的作品,她的作品通过重新定义,塑造了社会的形象,她的作品通过重新定义,塑造了社会的形象;她的作品通过重新定义,塑造了社会的形象;她的作品通过重新定义,塑造了基督教的形象;她的作品通过重新定义,塑造了基督教的形象;她的作品通过重新塑造,塑造了基督教的形象;她的作品通过重新塑造,塑造了基督教的形象;在此基础上,我们提出了一种新的方法,即通过对基督教信仰的忠实,对基督教信仰的忠实,对基督教信仰的忠实,对基督教信仰的忠实,对基督教信仰的忠实,对宗教信仰的忠实,对宗教信仰的忠实,对宗教信仰的忠实,对宗教信仰的忠实。德埃斯特modo, situa la protagonista科莫la霹雳马esclava暗线,absorbe y提供了una identidad, al最终deviene en triunfo puesto乘缆车instala en la esfera del hogar dentro德苏anhelada Ciudad尤其la Colina(非洲)美国y le permite ser una“美国本身。

A new intervention in the national imaginary: the portrayal of the southwest in the novels of Paul Auster. 民族想象中的新介入:保罗·奥斯特小说中对西南的描绘。

ABSTRACT: The article focuses on two novels by Paul Auster, The Book of Illusions (2002), Travels in the Scriptorium (2006), in which the Southwest emerges as a mythical territory, providing a rich ground in which the American grand narratives can be explored and revised. It is the contention of the article that the choice of this particular locale affords an excellent opportunity for a critical engagement with the national imaginary, the powerful myths shaping the American imagination. Travels in the Scriptorium reinvents the Southwest as the bloody arena on which the American imperialist mission is reenacted. In the novel, the Alien Territories, representing the American Southwest in the historical expansion of the United States, figure as a site of vicious struggle and ruthless conquest. By contrast, The Book of Illusions, presents the Southwest, specifically New Mexico, as the last mainstay of the American Dream. The creation of the Blue Stone Ranch in the “wilderness” of New Mexico and its transformation encapsulate the history of the American nation in its essential stages. But more importantly, the Southwest is envisioned as a region invested with a restorative, almost sacred quality. The Book of Illusion is the story of trauma. And the recovery from trauma is a process that either originates or takes place in New Mexico. RESUMEN: Este articulo se centra en dos novelas de Paul Auster, The Book of Illusions (2002) y Travels in the Scriptorium (2006) en las cuales el Sudoeste emerge como un territorio mitico que proporciona un espacio para la exploracion y revision de las grandes narrativas americanas. El proposito es senalar la eleccion de esta localizacion en particular como una oportunidad excelente para desarrollar un compromiso critico con el imaginario nacional, conformado por los solidos mitos y representaciones que configuran la imaginacion americana. Travels in the Scriptorium redefine el Sudoeste como el terreno sangriento en el que se recrea la mision colonialista americana. En la novela, los Territorios Foraneos, que representan el sudoeste americano dentro de la expansion historica de los Estados Unidos figuran como un lugar de lucha y conquista violentas. Por el contrario, The Book of Illusions presenta el Sudoeste, Nuevo Mexico especificamente, como el ultimo pilar del sueno americano. La creacion del rancho Blue Stone en las tierras salvajes de Nuevo Mexico y su transformacion comprenden la historia de la nacion americana en sus etapas constitutivas. De forma significativa, el Sudoeste se concibe como una region con rasgos revitalizadores, casi sagrados. Asi, The Book of Illusions es la historia del trauma cuyo proceso de recuperacion se origina y tiene lugar en Nuevo Mexico.
摘要:本文以保罗·奥斯特的两部小说《幻想之书》(2002)和《缮写室游记》(2006)为研究对象,在这两部小说中,美国西南部作为一个神秘的领域出现,为美国宏大叙事的探索和修正提供了丰富的土壤。这篇文章的论点是,选择这个特殊的地点提供了一个绝佳的机会,可以批判性地参与到国家想象中,塑造美国想象力的强大神话。《缮写室游记》将西南重塑为血腥的竞技场,美帝国主义的使命在这里重演。在小说中,异形领地代表了美国历史扩张中的美国西南部,是一个恶性斗争和残酷征服的场所。相比之下,《幻想之书》将西南部,特别是新墨西哥州,描绘成美国梦的最后支柱。在新墨西哥州的“荒野”中创建蓝石牧场和它的转变概括了美国民族在其重要阶段的历史。但更重要的是,西南地区被设想为一个具有恢复性、几乎是神圣品质的地区。《幻觉之书》是一个关于创伤的故事。从创伤中恢复是一个过程,要么起源于新墨西哥州,要么发生在新墨西哥州。简历:《幻想之书》(2002)和《Scriptorium游记》(2006)是保罗·奥斯特的中篇小说的中心部分,这两篇文章都是通过对《美国宏大叙事》的修订,在《美国宏大叙事》中出现的共同领域、共同比例、共同空间和共同探索。他提出了一种政治选举,一种地方化的政治选举,一种特别的政治选举,一种特别的机会,一种特别的政治选举,一种特别的政治选举,一种特别的政治选举,一种特别的政治选举,一种特别的政治选举,一种特别的政治选举,一种特别的政治选举,一种特别的政治选举,一种特别的政治选举。Scriptorium的旅行重新定义了Sudoeste como el terreno sangriente,以及el que se reca la mission colonial americana。在中篇小说中,《美洲领土》(Territorios Foraneos)代表了美国的扩张历史,《美洲领土》(Territorios Foraneos)代表了征服暴力的美国人。《贫穷的对照》、《幻象之书》、《新墨西哥》、《最伟大的美国人》。“蓝石庄园的诞生”和“新墨西哥的重建”与“美国国家的历史”和“宪法”的变迁相结合。重要的是,el Sudoeste se conconbe como una region con rasgos reizadores, casi sagrados。因此,《幻象之书》是一部关于创伤的历史,也是一部关于康复过程的历史,它起源于新墨西哥。

“Strange women teaching stranger things”: mediumship and female agency in nineteenth- century american spiritualist poetry. “奇怪的女人教奇怪的事情”:19世纪美国唯心主义诗歌中的灵媒和女性代理。

ABSTRACT: This article explores the paradoxes posed by American spiritualist poetry in relation to the female voice within nineteenth-century culture. Due to the associations between the passive and sensitive feminine ideal, as well as women’s supposedly innate moral and spiritual superiority, the ideology embraced by the spiritualist community granted its female followers a central role in the emerging movement while remaining compliant with the values of the period. As an example, spiritualist authors Lizzie Doten and Achsa Sprague made use of trance poetry to challenge the stereotypes which were meant to prevent women from participating in public life. By tracing the connections between mediumship and the act of writing it is possible to disclose the diverse strategies that such poets borrowed from spiritualist discourse in order to adapt their work to a readership that would rather believe in ghosts than in self-sufficient female authorship.  RESUMEN: Este articulo explora las paradojas planteadas por la poesia espiritista americana en relacion con la voz femenina en la cultura decimononica. Debido a las asociaciones entre el ideal de femineidad pasivo y sensible, ademas de la superioridad moral y espiritual supuestamente innata de las mujeres, la ideologia adoptada por la comunidad espiritista otorgaba a sus seguidoras un papel central en el movimiento emergente mientras, al mismo tiempo, permanecia de acuerdo con los valores de la epoca. Por ejemplo, las autoras espiritistas Lizzie Doten y Achsa Sprague utilizaron la poesia escrita en trance para poner en cuestion los estereotipos que impedian a las mujeres participar en la vida publica. Al trazar las conexiones entre la naturaleza de la medium y la escritura es posible revelar las diversas estrategias que aquellas poetas tomaban prestadas del discurso espiritista para adaptar su trabajo a lectores que preferian creer en los fantasmas antes que en la autoria femenina autosuficiente.
摘要:本文探讨了19世纪文化背景下美国唯心主义诗歌与女性声音之间的矛盾。由于被动和敏感的女性理想之间的联系,以及女性被认为天生的道德和精神优越感,唯心主义团体所接受的意识形态赋予了女性追随者在新兴运动中的核心角色,同时保持了对当时价值观的顺从。举个例子,通灵主义作家Lizzie Doten和Achsa Sprague利用恍惚诗来挑战那些旨在阻止女性参与公共生活的刻板印象。通过追踪灵媒和写作行为之间的联系,我们有可能揭示这些诗人从通灵主义者的话语中借用的各种策略,以使他们的作品适应那些宁愿相信鬼魂而不愿相信自给自足的女性作者的读者。个人简介:从文化的角度探讨植物的悖论,从关系的角度探讨美国的精神文明,从文化的角度探讨女性的精神文明。“女性的理想是感性的,道德的优越是感性的,精神的优越是感性的,意识形态的优越是感性的,精神的优越是感性的,精神的优越是感性的,精神的优越是感性的,精神的优越是感性的,意识形态的优越是感性的,精神的社会是感性的,意识形态的优越是感性的,精神的优越是感性的,精神的优越是感性的。”贫穷的工人、自治的精神学家Lizzie Doten和Achsa Sprague的精神学家,他们对传统观念提出了质疑,他们认为这是一种阻碍,他们认为这是一种公共生活的参与者。从自然的角度看,自然的角度看,自然的角度看,自然的角度看,自然的角度看,自然的角度看,自然的角度看,自然的角度看,自然的角度看,自然的角度看,自然的角度看,自然的角度看,自然的角度看,自然的角度看,自然的角度看。

Al trazar las conexiones entre la naturaleza de la medium y la escritura es posible revelar las diversas estrategias que aquellas poetas tomaban prestadas del discurso espiritista para adaptar su trabajo a lectores que preferian creer en los fantasmas antes que en la autoria femenina autosuficiente.","PeriodicalId":38126,"journal":{"name":"Revista de Estudios Norteamericanos","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66093123","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}

ABSTRACT: In 2010, Patti Smith published her first memoir, Just Kids, winning the National Book Award for Nonfiction. The book recounts Smith’s relationship with avant-garde photographer Robert Mapplethorpe, as well as her involvement in New York City’s burgeoning bohemian downtown scene. Five years later, she published a second memoir, M Train, a much more experimental narrative that goes back and forth in time and mixes dream and reality in an attempt to convey her nostalgic recollection of the past. This paper examines Patti Smith’s memoirs as a space where different genres of life writing converge, thus enabling the development of a multilayered, richly constructed narrative self whose identity is intimately connected with loss, self-discovery and the making of art. The analysis of her autobiographical prose works allows us to regard life writing as a way for women to devise a public image of their own. RESUMEN: En 2010, Patti Smith publico su primer libro de memorias, Eramos unos ninos, ganando el Premio Nacional del Libro en la categoria de no ficcion. El libro relata la relacion de Smith con el fotografo vanguardista Robert Mapplethorpe, asi como su involucramiento en la incipiente escena bohemia de la ciudad de Nueva York. Cinco anos despues, publico un segundo libro de memorias, M Train, con una narrativa mucho mas experimental que combina presente y pasado y mezcla suenos y realidad con la intencion de verbalizar su nostalgico recuerdo del pasado. Este articulo estudia las memorias de Patti Smith como un espacio en el que convergen diferentes generos autobiograficos, permitiendo asi la construccion de un personaje narrativo con multiples dimensiones cuya identidad esta intimamente ligada a la perdida, al descubrimiento de uno mismo y al arte. El analisis de su trabajo autobiografico en prosa nos permite entender la escritura autobiografica como una forma en que las mujeres pueden concebir su propia imagen publica.
摘要:2010年,帕蒂·史密斯出版了她的第一本回忆录《只是孩子》,并获得了美国国家图书奖。这本书讲述了史密斯与前卫摄影师罗伯特·梅普尔索普(Robert Mapplethorpe)的关系,以及她在纽约市蓬勃发展的波西米亚市中心的参与。五年后,她出版了第二本回忆录《M Train》,这是一种更具实验性的叙述,在时间中来回穿梭,将梦想与现实混合在一起,试图传达她对过去的怀旧回忆。本文将帕蒂·史密斯的回忆录视为一个不同类型的生活写作交汇的空间,从而使一个多层次、结构丰富的叙事自我得以发展,其身份与失落、自我发现和艺术创作密切相关。通过对她的自传体散文作品的分析,我们可以把生活写作看作是女性塑造自己公众形象的一种方式。简历:2010年,帕蒂·史密斯(Patti Smith)出版了一本名为《纪念图书馆》(libro de memorias)的图书,并将其命名为《图书分类》(categoria de no fiction)。罗伯特·梅普尔索普(Robert Mapplethorpe)与史密斯(Smith)的关系有关,他是纽约城(city of new York)早期波西米亚(bohemia)风格的艺术家。Cinco anos despues,公共图书馆,纪念图书馆,M Train, conuna叙事,许多实验性的方式结合了pasado与mezcla的呈现,以及现实与语言的交互,怀旧的recerdo del pasado。帕蒂·史密斯(Patti Smith)的作品在空间上融合了不同类型的自传体作品,在多重维度上对个人叙事的建构进行了许可,并确定了个人叙事的亲密关系和个人叙事的联系,并对所有艺术的共同特征进行了描述。作者分析了自传体文学在文学创作中的应用,并提出了自传体文学在文学创作中的应用。

ABSTRACT: The 1960s bequeathed to incoming generations of Americans a world in which neoconservatism became the intellectual spearhead of rightwing political thought and action. To this day, politics and policy making retain a potent neoconservative flair, which must be added to the considerable vigor of neoconservative principles in the enduring cultural wars still coloring American public life. This article reassesses the origins of neoconservatism and examines the key elements and subsequent influence of this group of American rightwing thinkers and policy makers. RESUMEN: La decada de los anos 1960 ha legado a las subsiguientes generaciones de estadounidenses un mundo en el que el neoconservadurismo se ha convertido en la punta de lanza intelectual del pensamiento y la accion politica de la derecha norteamericana. Desde entonces hasta la actualidad, tanto la politica como las iniciativas de gestion publica en la Gran Republica han retenido una potente connotacion neoconservadora que debe anadirse, ademas, al considerable vigor de los principios neoconservadores en las duraderas guerras culturales que aun se libran en la vida publica estadounidense. Este articulo re-evalua los origenes del neoconservadurismo y examina los elementos clave del mismo, asi como la influencia subsecuente de este grupo de pensadores y gestores publicos asociados a la derecha politica.
摘要:20世纪60年代初,新保守主义成为正确政治思想和行动的知识先锋。到目前为止,政治和政策制定仍然保留着一种强大的新保守主义风格,这种风格必须加上在持久的文化战争中新保守主义原则的相当大的活力,这种原则仍然影响着美国的公众生活。本文回顾了新保守主义的起源,并探讨了这群美国右翼思想家和政策制定者的关键因素和随后的影响。摘要:20世纪60年代给后代人留下了一个世界,在这个世界里,新保守主义已成为美国右翼思想和政治行动的知识先锋。从那时起至今,政治和管理倡议《伟大的共和国保留了一个强大的保守connotacion anadirse,此外,由于大量的保守原则生效仍然发动的战争文化持久在美国出版的一部分。在这篇文章中,我们回顾了新保守主义的起源,并考察了它的关键因素,以及这群与政治右翼有关的思想家和公共管理者的后续影响。

A vulnerable sense of place: re-adapting post-apocalyptic dystopia in octavia butler’s parable of the Sower and Colson Whitehead’s zone one. 脆弱的地方感:奥克塔维亚·巴特勒的播种者寓言和科尔森·怀特黑德的第一区重新适应后世界末日的反乌托邦。

ABSTRACT: Drawing on a number of theoretical works by  space, trauma and dystopian studies scholars, this paper reconsiders the postapocalyptic novels of Octavia E. Butler and Colson Whitehead, Parable of the Sower and Zone One respectively, as instances of “narrative vulnerability” that reformulate dystopian conventions to denounce precariousness and social chaos in twenty-first century America. It is argued that these novels re-adapt dystopia (understood in terms of genre and space: dys-topos) to denounce the futurelessness and fragility of corporate (bio)political systems, which can easily turn into posthuman regimes that cannibalize and impinge on the rights of those deemed Other. My aim with this paper is to trace the authors’ depictions of time and space as reconsidered genre components that problematize narrative resolution, adhering to narrative closure and spatial vulnerability in an attempt to critically portray the victimhood and hopelessness of those for whom nation and home will always be inaccessible, merely dystopian land. RESUMEN: Debido al reciente auge de la ficcion post-apocaliptica, este articulo pretende reconsiderar las novelas de Octavia Butler y Colson Whitehead, Parable of the Sower and Zone One respectivamente, como ejemplos de “vulnerabilidad narrativa” que reformulan las convenciones del genero para denunciar la precariedad y el caos social en America a lo largo del siglo XXI. Tratare de ofrecer una vision teorica de la adaptacion que estas novelas hacen del genero (y el espacio) post-apocaliptico para denunciar la ausencia de un futuro esperanzador que conllevan los sistemas (bio)politicos que gobiernan nuestra sociedad. Son precisamente estos sistemas los que pueden transformarse en regimenes post-humanos que canibalizan y vulneran los derechos que aquellas personas consideradas como Otras. El proposito de este articulo es analizar la representacion del tiempo y el espacio en las novelas como componentes clave en la re-adaptacion de su genero postapocaliptico, logrando asi evitar la resolucion del conflicto para abogar por un cierre narrativo. A traves de la vulnerabilidad de los espacios narrativos, estas novelas motivan al lector a analizar tanto la sociedad en la que vive, como las emociones conflictivas que en ella residen (tanto propias como ajenas). Se consigue asi representar la violencia a la que algunos colectivos sociales se ven sometidos, recalcando la ausencia que algunos sufren de un refugio al que poder llamar hogar.
摘要:本文借鉴空间、创伤和反乌托邦研究学者的大量理论著作,重新审视奥克塔维亚·巴特勒和科尔森·怀特黑德的后世界末日小说《播种者的寓言》和《第一区》,将其作为“叙事脆弱性”的实例,重新制定反乌托邦惯例,谴责21世纪美国的不稳定性和社会混乱。有人认为,这些小说重新改编了反乌托邦(从类型和空间的角度来理解:dystopos),以谴责企业(生物)政治制度的无未来性和脆弱性,这种制度很容易变成蚕食和侵犯被视为他者的权利的后人类政权。本文的目的是追溯作者对时间和空间的描述,将其作为重新考虑的类型成分,使叙事解决问题,坚持叙事封闭和空间脆弱性,试图批判性地描绘那些对国家和家园永远无法接近的人的受害者和绝望,仅仅是反乌托邦的土地。个人简介:作者对后世界末日小说进行了广泛的解读,对科尔森·怀特黑德的《奥克塔维亚·巴特勒》、《种子者的寓言》和《第一区》分别进行了细致入微的反思,对“脆弱性叙事”进行了重新构思,对《不稳定的社会》进行了广泛的阐释,对美国社会进行了广泛的阐释,对21世纪的美国社会进行了广泛的阐释。Tratare de ofrecer una愿景teorica de la adaptacion什么是肥皂剧hacen del genero (y el espacio) post-apocaliptico对位denunciar la ausencia de联合国无缝esperanzador, conllevan洛杉矶sistema(生物)政客,gobiernan nuestra称皇家社会秘鲁。“精准的系统”是一种“不稳定的系统”,“不稳定的系统”是一种“不稳定的系统”,“不稳定的系统”是一种“不稳定的系统”,“不稳定的系统”是一种“不稳定的系统”。他提出了一种新的观点,即通过对时间空间的分析,对时间空间的再现,以及小说的共同组成部分进行重新适应,即对后世界末日的重新适应,对世界末日的重新适应,对世界末日的重新适应,对世界末日的重新适应,对世界末日的重新适应,对世界末日的重新适应,对世界末日的重新适应,对世界末日的重新适应。《脆弱性之旅》是一部关于空间叙事的小说,是一部关于动机的小说,是一部关于社会的小说,是一部关于生活的小说,是一部关于情感的小说,是一部关于冲突的小说,是一部关于居民的小说。我们代表了暴力、集体和社会问题,甚至有时也代表了难民问题、集体和社会问题和难民问题。

The politics of grotesque violence and humor in Gerald Vizenor’s Bearheart: the heirship chronicle. 杰拉尔德·维泽诺的《心之熊》中怪诞的暴力和幽默的政治:继承权编年史。

ABSTRACT: Gerald Vizenor seeks to challenge static definitions of Native American identity in his early novel Bearheart. To this end, he fills the novel with grotesquely violent and humorous scenes which give the work a seemingly perverse appearance. The normalized violence and the grotesque humor throughout the novel, however, disrupt socially normalized concepts and thwart the reader’s notion of normality which is a reminiscent of “realism” as a traditional mode of narrativization. Violence theories of scholars like Schinkel, Arendt, and Benjamin together with humor theories of Morreall, Cohen, and Carroll are drawn upon in order to clarify the interconnected mechanism of humor, grotesquery, and violence in producing tribulations in the narrative line of Bearheart. This aesthetic strategy, which is aligned with a dexterous manipulation of focalization, is used throughout the novel to break the unquestioned authority of masternarratives and also to help the already marginalized Native Americans’ voices produce their own narratives of identity.  RESUMEN: Gerald Vizenor busca desafiar las definiciones asentadas sobre la identidad de los Nativos Americanos en una de sus primeras novelas,  Bearheart. Con este fin, su novela esta llena de escenas grotescamente violentas y humoristicas que le dan a la obra una apariencia perversa. Tanto esta violencia normalizada como este humor grotesco a lo largo de la novela, sin embargo, alteran los conceptos normalizados e impiden la nocion de normalidad del lector, reminiscencia del realismo como modo tradicional de narracion. Se recurre a los estudios sobre la violencia como los de  Schinkel, Arendt, y Benjamin y a los teoricos del humor Morreall, Cohen y Carroll para clarificar el mecanismo de las interconexiones del humor, de lo grotesco y de la violencia que producen tribulaciones en la linea de la narrativa de Bearheart. La estrategia estetica, junto con una habil manipulacion de la focalizacion, se usa a lo largo de la novela para romper la autoridad incuestionable de las metanarrativas y asi ayudar a los Nativos Americanos, cuyas voces han sido marginalizadas, a que produzcan sus propias narrativas con respecto a su identidad.
摘要:杰拉德·维泽诺在其早期小说《心熊》中试图挑战印第安人身份的静态定义。为了达到这个目的,他在小说中充满了怪诞的暴力和幽默的场景,使这部作品看起来有点反常。然而,贯穿整部小说的常态化暴力和怪诞幽默破坏了社会常态化的观念,阻碍了读者对常态的认识,这让人联想到作为传统叙事模式的“现实主义”。本文借鉴了Schinkel、Arendt、Benjamin等学者的暴力理论,以及Morreall、Cohen、Carroll等人的幽默理论,阐明了《Bearheart》叙事线中幽默、荒诞、暴力三者之间的相互联系机制。这种美学策略与巧妙的聚焦手法相结合,贯穿整部小说,打破了大师叙事无可置疑的权威,也帮助已经被边缘化的印第安人发出了他们自己的身份叙事。简历:杰拉德·维泽诺·布斯卡(Gerald Vizenor busca)在《美国原住民》(native americans)和《心》(Bearheart)中扮演了重要角色。埃斯特监狱鳍,苏出一部esta llena de escenas grotescamente violentas y humoristicas, le丹拉obra为una apariencia perversa。“暴力正常化”“幽默”“怪诞”“中篇小说”,“禁忌”,“另类”概念,“正常化”,“隐藏”,“正常化”,“批判”,“回忆”,“现实主义”,“共同”,“传统叙事”。我们可以看到,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,阿伦特,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的幽默,莫雷尔,科恩,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室,我们的工作室。“战略美学”,“集中化”的“习惯性操纵”,“新小说”的“权威主义”的“元叙事”的“新叙事”的“新叙事”的“新叙事”的“新叙事”的“新叙事”的“新叙事”的“新叙事”的“新叙事”的“新叙事”的“新叙事”的“新叙事”的“新叙事”的“新叙事”。
