Abstract:Mexican Canadian writer Silvia Moreno-Garcia's meteoric rise after the publication of Mexican Gothic (2020) has placed her at the center of contemporary genre fiction. This essay discusses the ways in which her approach to genre, and particularly to the Gothic, is informed by a citational dynamic in relation to what the article calls her "Mexican Archive"—that is, the rich network of references to the history and symbolic production of Mexico. The essay contends that this archive sets Moreno-Garcia apart from other Latinx fiction writers in her disengagement from US-centered ideas of race and Mexicanness. The article discusses in the first part the ways in which we could think about the role of Mexico and Mexican culture in Moreno-Garcia's work. In the second part, a reading of Mexican Gothic unfolds the ways in which this archive intersects with the citational practices and symbolic conventions of genre fiction.
摘要:墨西哥裔加拿大作家西尔维娅·莫雷诺-加西亚在《墨西哥哥特式》(2020)出版后迅速崛起,使她成为当代类型小说的中心。这篇文章讨论了她对流派,特别是哥特式的处理方式,是如何被文章所称的“墨西哥档案馆”的引用动态所影响的,即对墨西哥历史和象征性作品的丰富引用网络。文章认为,这份档案使莫雷诺·加西亚与其他拉丁裔小说作家不同,因为她脱离了以美国为中心的种族和墨西哥思想。本文在第一部分讨论了我们如何思考墨西哥和墨西哥文化在莫雷诺·加西亚作品中的作用。在第二部分中,对墨西哥哥特式的解读揭示了该档案与类型小说的引用实践和象征惯例的交叉方式。

Abstract:While Asian American authors have certainly produced narratives of return to their or their predecessors' countries of origin, these narratives have, until recently, predominantly appeared in memoir and autobiography. Since the turn of the millennium there's been a significant uptick in the fictional portrayal of return. In stark contrast to the spiritual and filial returns in memoir, these fictional portrayals tend not to sentimentalize return. The protagonists who return more often follow economic or professional trajectories. In novels like Tao Lin's Taipei (2013), Ling Ma's Severance (2018), Han Ong's The Disinherited (2004), Ruth Ozeki's A Tale for the Time Being (2013), Brian Ascalon Roley's American Son (2001), and Lucy Tan's What We Were Promised (2018), return to Asia intensifies rather than vitiates material structures of alienation. What we find is that they tend to undermine an emerging Twenty-first century racial form that welds the Asian to neoliberal flexibility, even if they often forego critique. This article will describe contemporary Asian/American return fictions in contrast to earlier manifestations of the genre and explore their problematic relationship to categories like Asian American and Anglophone Asian fiction.
摘要:虽然亚裔美国作家肯定制作了关于返回他们或前任原籍国的叙事,但直到最近,这些叙事主要出现在回忆录和自传中。自千禧年之交以来,对回归的虚构描绘有了显著的上升。与回忆录中的精神回报和孝顺回报形成鲜明对比的是,这些虚构的描写往往没有将回报伤感化。回归的主角往往遵循经济或职业轨迹。在陶林的《台北》(2013年)、凌马的《断绝关系》(2018年)、韩的《被剥夺继承权的人》(2004年)、露丝·奥泽基的《暂时的故事》(2013)、布莱恩·阿斯卡隆·罗利的《美国之子》(2001年)和露西·谭的《我们曾承诺过什么》(2018)等小说中,回归亚洲加剧而不是破坏了异化的物质结构。我们发现,他们往往会破坏21世纪新兴的种族形式,这种形式将亚洲人与新自由主义的灵活性结合在一起,即使他们经常放弃批评。本文将描述当代亚裔/美国回归小说,与该类型的早期表现形式形成对比,并探讨它们与亚裔美国人和英语亚洲小说等类别的问题关系。

Empire, Infrastructural Violence, and the Speculative Turn 帝国,基础设施暴力和投机转向

Abstract:This essay analyzes the function of speculative fiction in the ecosystem of literary attempts to understand the imbrication of infrastructure with racial and colonial violence. While the task of making infrastructural violence apprehensible may seem more suited to realism (the literary mode designed to make legible "what is"), I trace a largely unrecognized strand in Johan Galtung's original theorization of structural violence to argue for the importance of "what is not": the potential realizations of human flourishing that are foreclosed by empire's infrastructural violence—potential realizations that can only be grasped through an act of speculation. I make this argument through a reading of Toni Cade Bambara's 1980 novel The Salt Eaters, which begins in a mostly realist mode that captures empire's violent distortions of Black and Native lives through infrastructural violence before transitioning into a more overtly speculative mode towards the end of the novel. Bambara's formal enactment of the speculative turn, I argue, evokes the potential realizations of Black and Native life that have been foreclosed by empire's infrastructural violence and entrains readers to see the world not just as it is, or as it could be, but as it might have been and might yet be. I close the essay with a discussion of the broader speculative turn in anticolonial Black women's fiction, suggesting that both the rise of speculative elements in more realist novels and the efflorescence of Black speculative fiction can be seen as deploying the affordances of speculation to capture the realities of colonial infrastructural violence in the US.
摘要:本文分析了思辨小说在文学生态系统中的作用,试图理解基础设施与种族和殖民暴力的叠加。虽然让基础设施暴力变得可理解的任务似乎更适合现实主义(旨在让“什么是”清晰可见的文学模式),我在约翰·加尔东(Johan Galtung)最初的结构性暴力理论中追溯了一条基本上未被认识到的线索,以论证“什么不是”的重要性:帝国基础设施暴力阻碍了人类繁荣的潜在实现——只有通过猜测才能抓住的潜在实现。我是通过阅读托尼·凯德·班巴拉1980年的小说《吃盐者》来提出这一论点的,这部小说以一种主要的现实主义模式开始,通过基础设施暴力捕捉到帝国对黑人和原住民生活的暴力扭曲,然后在小说快结束时转变为一种更公开的推测模式。我认为,班巴拉对投机转向的正式演绎,唤起了黑人和原住民生活的潜在实现,这些生活被帝国的基础设施暴力所阻止,并吸引读者不仅看到世界的现状或可能的样子,而且看到世界可能已经和可能已经的样子。在这篇文章的结尾,我讨论了反殖民黑人女性小说中更广泛的投机转向,这表明投机元素在更现实主义的小说中的兴起和黑人投机小说的蓬勃发展都可以被视为利用投机的可供性来捕捉美国殖民地基础设施暴力的现实。

"One foot on the other side": Towards a Periodization of West African Spiritual Surrealism “一只脚在另一边”:走向西非精神超现实主义的一个时期

Abstract:For both writers and scholars of African and diaspora literature, genre is a fraught concept. Western institutions, especially departments of English literature, have used the tool of genre to discipline Africana literatures and the people who create them, at once reducing conventional realism to a source of anthropological information and mischaracterizing realism with an indigenous or Nonwestern worldview as fantasy or "Magical Realism." "West African spiritual surrealism," as defined in this essay, offers a generic rubric that both attends to the literalization of Igbo and Yoruba cosmology in fiction as well as the ways these cosmologies can give rise to literary devices that resist hegemonic, Anglo-American centric literary interpretation. Through close readings of Helen Oyeyemi's The Icarus Girl (2005) and Akwaeke Emezi's Freshwater (2018), this article historicizes West African spiritual surrealism as a geographically and ideologically diasporic genre that cannot be properly understood through frameworks of globalization alone. This genre and its writers require critics to read both deeply and widely in order to understand how West African spiritual surrealism places African cosmologies and people always already at the center of literary production.
摘要:对于非洲和海外文学的作家和学者来说,类型是一个令人担忧的概念。西方机构,特别是英国文学部门,已经使用类型工具来训练非洲文学和创作这些文学的人,同时将传统的现实主义简化为人类学信息的来源,并将带有本土或非西方世界观的现实主义错误地描述为幻想或“魔幻现实主义”。”“西非精神超现实主义,“正如本文所定义的,提供了一个通用的标题,既关注小说中伊博和约鲁巴宇宙学的文学化,也关注这些宇宙学如何产生抵制霸权、以英美为中心的文学解释的文学手段本文将西非精神超现实主义历史化为一种地理和意识形态上的流散流派,仅靠全球化的框架是无法正确理解的。这一类型及其作家要求评论家深入而广泛地阅读,以了解西非精神超现实主义是如何将非洲宇宙和人民始终置于文学生产的中心的。

Meet the New Boss: Dave Eggers's The Circle and the New Digital Totalitarianism 认识新老板:戴夫·艾格斯的《圈子》与新的数字极权主义

Abstract:Dave Eggers's 2013 novel, The Circle, is a digital age dystopia, illustrating a shift from traditional dystopian fears about totalitarian governments toward fears of media monopolies. Despite the modern polish, the Circle social media company illustrates the Althusserian concept of interpellation, where citizen identities are "hailed" by the social media they use. Indeed, "citizenship" itself in Eggers's novel has become digitally privatized. Structurally, social media companies undermine the notion of freedom of speech, even for Americans, by imposing their own standards for discourse, as well as exploiting digital audience labor in terms of content, consumption, and data mining. Individuals posting on social media no longer have the right to define their voice, audience, publicity, or their messages' permanence, because now "their existence is inscribed in the actions of practices governed by rituals defined in the last instance by an ideological apparatus" (Althusser 1971, 170). Dave Eggers's The Circle represents social media companies acting as a ruling class, enforcing ideology through material conditions of the digital factory—the attention industry of social media—by asserting powers of surveillance and structuring corporate-serving conventions of communication. Eggers espouses the dangers of users willingly logging into "digital citizenship" as subjects ruled by social media companies.
摘要:戴夫·艾格斯(Dave Eggers)2013年的小说《圆圈》(The Circle)是一部数字时代的反乌托邦小说,描绘了从对极权政府的传统反乌托邦恐惧向对媒体垄断的恐惧的转变。尽管进行了现代打磨,Circle社交媒体公司还是展示了阿尔都塞式的质询概念,即公民身份受到他们使用的社交媒体的“欢迎”。事实上,艾格斯小说中的“公民身份”本身已经数字化私有化。从结构上讲,社交媒体公司通过强加自己的话语标准,以及在内容、消费和数据挖掘方面利用数字受众的劳动力,破坏了言论自由的概念,甚至对美国人来说也是如此。在社交媒体上发帖的个人不再有权定义自己的声音、受众、宣传或信息的永久性,因为现在“他们的存在被意识形态机构最后定义的仪式所支配的实践行为所铭记”(Althusser 1971,170)。Dave Eggers的The Circle代表了社交媒体公司作为一个统治阶级,通过数字工厂(社交媒体的注意力产业)的物质条件,通过维护监控权和构建企业服务的沟通惯例来强化意识形态。Eggers支持用户自愿登录“数字公民身份”作为社交媒体公司统治的主体的危险。

Abstract:What can we learn about a manuscript that was probably lost at sea? How can such an elusive text help us to historicize transatlantic reading practices? In this paper, I trace the reception of a book we famously cannot read or recover: Margaret Fuller's history of the Italian Revolution. In July 1850, Fuller drowned with her husband and son when the Elizabeth wrecked within sight of Fire Island, New York; she was returning to the United States after traveling as an international correspondent for the NYDT. Like her body, her book never surfaced. While many believe the manuscript drowned or was looted by pirates, many others believe it never existed, that Fuller never finished or even started writing it. Literary surmising about Fuller's manuscript survives in wide-ranging archives, which I study as interconnected critical responses: powerful interpretations of Fuller's historical sensibilities as a revolutionary journalist-activist. Fuller's manuscript persists, then, in literary histories that are transatlantic in the most real sense of the word.
摘要:关于一份可能在海上丢失的手稿,我们能了解到什么?这样一个难以捉摸的文本如何帮助我们将跨大西洋的阅读实践历史化?在本文中,我追溯了一本我们无法阅读或恢复的书的接受情况:玛格丽特·富勒的意大利革命史。1850年7月,当伊丽莎白号在纽约火岛附近失事时,富勒与丈夫和儿子淹死了;她是《纽约时报》的国际记者,刚刚结束旅行回到美国。就像她的身体一样,她的书从未浮出水面。虽然许多人认为手稿被淹死或被海盗掠夺,但也有许多人认为它从未存在过,富勒从未完成甚至从未开始写它。关于富勒手稿的文学猜测存在于广泛的档案中,我将其作为相互关联的批评回应进行研究:对富勒作为革命新闻活动家的历史敏感性的有力解释。因此,富勒的手稿在最真正意义上的跨大西洋文学史中留存了下来。

Abstract:While New Modernist Studies is growing as it aims at a more inclusive literary modernism, critical interest in middlebrow literature is declining. This article argues that middlebrow literary scholarship is crucially important for understanding nuances in middle-class American culture in the first half of the twentieth century. Engaging with affect theory, this article claims that "affective mapping," as a method of interpretation, an effect of reading, as well as a narrative style, is especially useful for reading seemingly unremarkable texts. Specifically, through an affective reading of motherhood in Louis Bromfield's Mrs. Parkington (1942), the article demonstrates how middlebrow literature can convey reimagined maternal norms of modernity.
摘要:当新现代主义研究以更具包容性的文学现代主义为目标而不断发展时,对中产阶级文学的批评兴趣却在下降。本文认为,对于理解20世纪上半叶美国中产阶级文化中的细微差别,中产阶级文学学术至关重要。运用情感理论,本文认为“情感映射”作为一种解读方法、一种阅读效果以及一种叙事风格,对阅读看似不起眼的文本尤其有用。具体而言,通过对路易斯·布罗姆菲尔德(Louis Bromfield)的《帕金顿夫人》(Mrs.Parkington,1942)中母性的情感解读,文章展示了中产阶级文学如何传达重新想象的现代性母性规范。

Abstract:Vietnam War narratives typically adopt a limited perspective that Viet Thanh Nguyen, in his book Nothing Ever Dies: Vietnam and the Memory of War (2016), terms "unjust memory," which recalls the past from a self-serving position that remembers the self as human and other as inhuman. In contrast, Nguyen's novel The Sympathizer (2015) represents the war from a more inclusive perspective that Nguyen calls "just memory," which strives to recognize the shared humanity and inhumanity of the self and other. This essay critically examines The Sympathizer as a literary companion to Nothing Ever Dies, arguing that its metatextual qualities shape its project of rewriting the history of the war from the lens of just memory. By employing meta-textual techniques, such as characterizing the narrator as a figure of duality, featuring a nested narrative form, and self-referentially exploring the performativity of writing, The Sympathizer reveals that language and memory can be manipulated to construct varying versions of "truth." In doing so, The Sympathizer suggests that in order to build a more just world, we must first recognize the potential limitations and possibilities of narrative, which can be either weaponized to justify violence or engaged to imagine a future free of war.
摘要:越南战争叙事通常采用一种有限的视角,越南阮在其著作《没有什么死过:越南与战争记忆》(2016)中称之为“不公正的记忆”,它从一种自私的立场回忆过去,将自己视为人,将他人视为非人。相比之下,阮的小说《同情者》(2015)从一个更具包容性的角度来描述战争,阮称之为“正义的记忆”,努力承认自我和他人的共同人性和非人性。本文批判性地审视了《同情者》作为《一无所有》的文学伴侣,认为它的元文本性质塑造了它从记忆的角度改写战争历史的计划。通过运用元文本技术,例如将叙述者描述为二元性人物,以嵌套的叙事形式为特征,以及对写作的表演性进行自我参照探索,《同情者》揭示了语言和记忆可以被操纵来构建不同版本的“真相”,我们必须首先认识到叙事的潜在局限性和可能性,叙事既可以被武器化为暴力辩护,也可以被用来想象一个没有战争的未来。
