“Picturing Poverty” addresses the striking absence of discussion of poverty in US cultural criticism by turning to the archive to examine historically significant and influential, but previously neglected, early photographs of the poor alongside more familiar literary texts. The essay demonstrates that the period’s photographic apprehension of the poor haunts literary depictions. Tracing rich, productive exchanges between nineteenth-century visual and literary texts, it argues that the photographic project of bearing witness to urban poverty helped authorize the emergence of realism as a nineteenth-century literary mode. “Picturing Poverty” illustrates this argument by analyzing the work of Horatio Alger, who plainly incorporates ideals of photographic legibility into his fictional narratives and vision of reform.
《描绘贫困》通过查阅档案来研究具有历史意义和影响力但以前被忽视的早期贫困照片以及更熟悉的文学文本,解决了美国文化批评中明显缺乏对贫困的讨论的问题。这篇文章表明,这一时期对穷人的摄影理解萦绕在文学描述中。它追溯了19世纪视觉和文学文本之间丰富而富有成效的交流,认为见证城市贫困的摄影项目有助于授权现实主义作为19世纪文学模式的出现。《描绘贫困》通过分析霍雷肖·阿尔杰的作品来说明这一论点,他将照片易读性的理想简单地融入了他的虚构叙事和改革愿景中。

This essay reconsiders literary engagements with the figure of the newsboy in terms of their own ambivalences, critiques, and calls for social reform. Taking Horatio Alger’s dime novels as a primary case study, this piece explores Alger’s sense that the growth of literary business relied too heavily on the exploitation of poverty conditions produced by and disseminated through the medium of popular print.
这篇文章从报童的矛盾心理、批评和对社会改革的呼吁等方面重新审视了报童的文学作品。以霍雷肖·阿尔杰的廉价小说为主要案例研究,本文探讨了阿尔杰的一种感觉,即文学业务的增长过于依赖于利用由大众印刷媒介产生和传播的贫困状况。

“Never Allowed for Property”: Harriet Jacobs and Layli Long Soldier before the Law “不允许拥有财产”:法律面前的哈里特·雅各布斯和莱利·朗

This article reads Harriet Jacobs’s Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl (1861) alongside Layli Long Soldier’s Whereas (2017) to argue that both texts challenge the ideology of property ownership that has long been central to Black and Indigenous subjugation. By reading these texts through Cedric Robinson’s theorization of the Black Radical Tradition, which “never allowed for property,” this essay argues that both texts bring into being a world that precedes and exceeds the violence of legal regulation. Jacobs and Long Soldier both locate an alternative to law in the radical divinity of maternal care. Through Jacobs’s and Long Soldier’s discussions of holy maternal care, we can recognize the interrelation of Black and Indigenous freedom struggles in a way that’s not solely defined by shared subjugation.
本文将哈丽特·雅各布斯的《一个女奴生活中的事件》(1861年)与蕾丽·朗·士兵的《然而》(2017年)进行对比,认为这两篇文章都挑战了长期以来一直是黑人和土著征服的核心的财产所有权意识形态。通过阅读塞德里克·罗宾逊对黑人激进传统的理论,即“从不允许财产”,这篇文章认为,这两个文本都带来了一个先于并超越法律规定暴力的世界。雅各布斯和长战士都在母性关怀的激进神性中找到了法律的替代品。通过雅各布斯和朗士兵对神圣的母性关怀的讨论,我们可以认识到黑人和土著自由斗争的相互关系,这种关系并不仅仅由共同的征服来定义。

Shakespeare “Translated and Improved”: The Translational Politics of the American Yiddish Theater and Its Afterlife 莎士比亚的“翻译与改良”:美国意第绪语剧院的翻译政治及其后世

This article explores the American Yiddish theater’s creative reworkings of William Shakespeare, a practice epitomized by the presumed parodic dictum “translated and improved” (fartaytsht un farbessert). It argues that this theater’s translational politics of chutzpah strives to breach fixed literary and familial lineages by treating the high-canonical Anglo text as a porous space, open to endless cultural attachments. Through revisionary acts of intercultural exchange, the Yiddish theater and its followers envision literary inheritance as something that is not bounded by familial descent and dissent but rather is open to alternative modes of kinship. Specifically, this late nineteenth-century strategy is carried forward by authors such as Anzia Yezierska and Grace Paley, who turn to the Yiddish theater’s proclaimed improvement of Shakespeare in their multilingual English works in order to envision a radical fluidity of the American self. Writing on the periphery of US literary production, the authors studied in this article Judaize, Yiddishize, and queer Shakespearean characters, insisting on both the semantic and semiotic ways in which translations can democratize the linguistic economy of Anglo-American literature.
本文探讨了美国意第绪语剧院对威廉·莎士比亚的创造性改编,这一实践体现在假定的戏仿格言“翻译和改进”(fartaytst un farbessert)中。它认为,这部戏剧大胆的翻译政治试图打破固定的文学和家族谱系,将高度规范的盎格鲁文本视为一个多孔的空间,向无尽的文化依恋敞开。通过跨文化交流的修正行为,意第绪语剧院及其追随者将文学继承视为一种不受家族血统和异议限制的东西,而是对其他亲属模式开放的东西。具体来说,这一19世纪末的策略是由安齐亚·叶齐尔斯卡和格蕾丝·帕利等作家提出的,他们转向意第绪语剧院在其多语言英语作品中对莎士比亚的改进,以设想美国人自我的激进流动性。本文立足于美国文学生产的边缘,研究了犹太化、意第绪化和莎士比亚的酷儿角色,坚持翻译可以使英美文学的语言经济民主化的语义和符号方式。

Eleven Kinds? Loneliness and Reading for Type with Richard Yates 十一种?孤独与类型阅读

During the mid-twentieth century, loneliness became the dominant affect in American fiction, reflecting a broader cultural narrative that social and demographic changes had led to a crisis of loneliness. This affective shift is captured in Richard Yates’s 1962 short story collection, Eleven Kinds of Loneliness—but Yates’s deliberate framing of his stories as “eleven kinds” implies a second object of critique. Reading Yates’s work for social and psychological types, this article proposes that personality tests, corporate typing, and social typologies had a major role in the rise in loneliness in midcentury America—a relationship borne out by contemporary sociology, most prominently The Lonely Crowd (1950) by David Riesman, Nathan Glazer, and Reuel Denney. This article further argues that by reading midcentury fiction more broadly for type, we can understand loneliness not merely as a bad feeling but as a space of contest between individuality and group belonging, intimately connected to larger political and social narratives. Setting Yates’s stories against midcentury novels by Ralph Ellison and Mary McCarthy, this article reframes American loneliness in light of the cultural changes of the midcentury and writers’ struggles with the possibilities and limitations of type.
在20世纪中期,孤独成为美国小说的主要影响因素,反映了一种更广泛的文化叙事,即社会和人口结构的变化导致了孤独危机。理查德·叶茨1962年的短篇小说集《十一种孤独》捕捉到了这种情感的转变,但叶茨故意将自己的故事框定为“十一种”,这意味着第二个批评对象。阅读耶茨关于社会和心理类型的著作,本文提出,人格测试、企业类型和社会类型在本世纪中叶美国孤独感的上升中发挥了重要作用——当代社会学证实了这一关系,最突出的是大卫·里斯曼、内森·格雷泽和罗伊尔·丹尼的《孤独的人群》(1950)。这篇文章进一步认为,通过更广泛地阅读世纪中期的小说类型,我们可以将孤独理解为一种糟糕的感觉,而且是个性和群体归属之间的竞争空间,与更大的政治和社会叙事密切相关。本文将耶茨的故事与拉尔夫·埃里森(Ralph Ellison)和玛丽·麦卡锡(Mary McCarthy)的世纪中期小说相比较,结合世纪中期的文化变化以及作家们对类型的可能性和局限性的斗争,重新定义了美国的孤独。

Incommensurate Labors: The Work behind the Works of Harriet Jacobs and Walt Whitman 不称职的劳动者:哈里特·雅各布斯和沃尔特·惠特曼作品背后的工作

In 1860, Harriet Jacobs and Walt Whitman signed nearly identical contracts with Boston-based publishers Thayer and Eldridge. This article tells the story of Jacobs’s and Whitman’s intersecting journeys to and from Thayer and Eldridge, and considers what this convergence can teach us about the antebellum book market and our scholarly evaluations of it. The first section of the article illuminates the publishing histories of Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl (1861) by Jacobs and the third edition of Leaves of Grass by Whitman (1860) from the vantage of Thayer and Eldridge, their shared publisher. Thanks to the vast economic support of Thayer and Eldridge, Whitman brought his artistic vision into the literary marketplace, but he did so at the expense of Jacobs. Thayer and Eldridge went bankrupt printing and promoting Whitman’s book, leaving Jacobs without a publisher. Jacobs, in turn, published Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl by herself. The article’s second section leaves Whitman and Thayer and Eldridge behind to follow Jacobs on her postpublication book tour. Her efforts in these years—traveling from place to place, meeting with readers, and selling her books—are the reason we have Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl today.
1860年,哈里特·雅各布斯和沃尔特·惠特曼与波士顿出版商塞耶和埃尔德里奇签订了几乎相同的合同。这篇文章告诉了雅各布斯和惠特曼往返塞耶和埃尔德里奇的交叉旅程,并思考了这种融合可以教会我们什么关于内战前图书市场以及我们对它的学术评价。文章的第一部分从他们的共同出版商塞耶和埃尔德里奇的角度阐述了雅各布斯的《奴隶女孩生活中的事件》(1861)和惠特曼的《草叶集》(1860)第三版的出版历史。由于塞耶和埃尔德里奇的巨大经济支持,惠特曼将他的艺术视野带入了文学市场,但他这样做是以雅各布斯为代价的。塞耶和埃尔德里奇在印刷和宣传惠特曼的书时破产了,雅各布斯没有出版商。雅各布斯自己出版了《奴隶女孩生活中的事件》。这篇文章的第二部分留下了惠特曼、塞耶和埃尔德里奇,跟随雅各布斯进行出版后的巡回售书。她这些年的努力——从一个地方旅行到另一个地方,与读者见面,卖她的书——是我们今天有《奴隶女孩生活中的事件》的原因。

With, Without, Even Still: Frederick Douglass, L’Union, and Editorship Studies 有,没有,甚至静止:弗雷德里克·道格拉斯、《联合》和编辑研究

This essay calls for the concerted study of editorship as a distinct mode of cultural expression. Given that the collaborative craft of editors is often invisible, the study of editorship requires attending to the practices, habits, and techniques of editing as themselves historically contingent and significant objects of inquiry. This essay analyzes a cross section of editorial practices in 1862 when a controversy during the Civil War over slavery and emancipation entangled editors from Horace Greeley and Frederick Douglass to their less conspicuous peers at L’Union (a bilingual, Black Creole weekly in New Orleans). These examples reveal the practical language of editorship expressed through serial formats. By reading editing on its own terms, in the patterns of established formats and formal innovations, it becomes possible to envision the broader study of editorship not only for nineteenth-century Black, Latinx, Indigenous, and multilingual print cultures but also in the wider firmaments of literary and cultural history.
本文呼吁对编辑作为一种独特的文化表达方式进行协调研究。鉴于编辑的合作技巧往往是看不见的,对编辑职位的研究需要关注编辑的实践、习惯和技术,因为它们本身就是历史偶然和重要的研究对象。这篇文章分析了1862年编辑实践的一个横截面,当时内战期间关于奴隶制和解放的争议纠缠着从Horace Greeley和Frederick Douglass到他们在L’Union(新奥尔良的一家双语黑人克里奥尔人周刊)不太显眼的同行的编辑。这些例子揭示了通过串行格式表达的编辑的实用语言。通过以既定的格式和形式创新的模式,以自己的方式阅读编辑,我们可以想象对编辑的更广泛研究,不仅适用于19世纪的黑人、拉丁裔、土著和多语言印刷文化,也适用于更广泛的文学和文化史。

Neurodiverse Afro-Fabulations: Pauline Hopkins’s Counterintelligence 神经多样性的非洲寓言:Pauline Hopkins的反智力
IF 0.5 3区 文学 0 LITERATURE, AMERICAN Pub Date : 2022-03-03 DOI: 10.1215/00029831-9779050
Stephen Knadler
“Neurodiverse Afro-Fabulations” focuses on the neglected cognitive biopolitics in post-Reconstruction debates over African American progress and full democratic citizenship, in order to trace an unmarked African American neurodiverse disability history, or the antiableist imagining of neurological, cognitive, and psychological variations that existed before and persisted alongside the emergence of modern evolutionary- and hereditary-based diagnostic categories of intelligence. At the same time, “Neurodiverse Afro-Fabulations” argues for the importance of an abjected Blackness in the critical genealogy of modern neurodiversity, which has largely been associated with recent movements to recognize people with autism or ADHD and has focused on the middle-class white child. Through an examination of Pauline Hopkins’s essay series for the Colored American Magazine, “Famous Women of the Negro Race” (1901–2), this essay first recovers Hopkins’s ambivalent relation to the compulsory neurotypicality of racial uplift politics. “Neurodiverse Afro-Fabulations” then turns to Hopkins’s novel Contending Forces (1900) to foreground how her fiction is interrupted by scenes of neurodiverse Afro-fabulation that do not simply refute claims of Black inferiority through a representational politics of counterfacts, but fabulate, exaggerate, and deliberately foreground eccentric, excessive, and “irrational” ways of knowing that have their roots in diasporic epistemologies. Ultimately, “Neurodiverse Afro-Fabulations” raises questions about the way an engagement with a history of Black neurodiversity affects how we think about the political, especially as antiblackness and cognitive disability have often served as overlapping technologies in the formation of a white liberal humanism.
“神经多样性非洲神话”聚焦于重建后关于非裔美国人进步和完全民主公民身份的辩论中被忽视的认知生物政治,以追溯一段未被标记的非裔美国人神经多样性残疾历史,或者是在现代进化和遗传为基础的智力诊断类别出现之前存在并持续存在的神经、认知和心理变异的反ableist想象。与此同时,《非洲裔神经多样性理论》(neurodiversity african - fabulus)一书认为,在现代神经多样性的关键谱系中,黑人的地位低下是很重要的。现代神经多样性在很大程度上与最近识别自闭症或多动症患者的运动有关,并且主要关注中产阶级白人儿童。通过对波琳·霍普金斯为《美国有色人种杂志》撰写的系列文章《黑人著名女性》(1901 - 1902)的考察,本文首先恢复了霍普金斯与种族提升政治的强制性神经典型性的矛盾关系。“神经多样性的非洲虚构”然后转向霍普金斯的小说《争夺力量》(1900),突出了她的小说是如何被神经多样性的非洲虚构的场景打断的,这些场景不仅仅是通过反事实的表征政治来驳斥黑人劣等的主张,而是虚构、夸大和故意突出古怪、过度和“非理性”的认识方式,这些方式植根于散乱的认识论。最后,“神经多样性非洲虚构”提出了一个问题,即参与黑人神经多样性的历史如何影响我们对政治的看法,特别是当反黑人和认知障碍经常在形成白人自由人文主义的过程中充当重叠的技术时。

At the same time, “Neurodiverse Afro-Fabulations” argues for the importance of an abjected Blackness in the critical genealogy of modern neurodiversity, which has largely been associated with recent movements to recognize people with autism or ADHD and has focused on the middle-class white child.
