摘要

摘要:在《雌雄同体》(约1846年)和《情人集》(1870年)中,朱莉娅·沃德·豪和伊丽莎白·斯托达德沉浸在幻想中,其中的主人公劳伦斯和艾丽西亚完全接受了浪漫主义的创作模式。劳伦斯和艾丽西亚能够实现浪漫主义的作者理想,部分原因是他们通过思想流通而不是以印刷的、大量生产的形式发表作品;他们也将生活写作作为一种体裁,并探索手稿的物质性美学。通过这些人物,Howe和Stoddard探讨了在19世纪中期两种重叠的媒体传统:非印刷沙龙和手稿文化以及最近的商业印刷文化传统的交叉点上,自我和文学创作的成本和后果。尽管《雌雄同体》和《文集》强调了生活写作的艺术性和真实性,并展示了作者和流通的非印刷模式,作为一种拥抱文学和个人自主的方式,但它们也揭示了这些途径是不完美的。当一起阅读时,这些作品既不谴责一个传统,也不宽恕另一个传统。相反,他们要求读者重新评估并解决那些限制作者身份和文学事业概念的批判性范式。

"What Would Become of My Literary Career?": Julia Ward Howe, Elizabeth Stoddard, and the Limits of Literary Traditions

Abstract:

In The Hermaphrodite (ca. 1846) and “Collected by a Valetudinarian” (1870), Julia Ward Howe and Elizabeth Stoddard indulge in fantasies in which their protagonists, Laurence and Alicia, embrace fully Romantic modes of authorship. Laurence and Alicia can fulfill Romantic ideals of authorship partly because they publish their work through the circulation of ideas rather than in printed, mass-produced form; they also embrace life writing as a genre and explore the aesthetics of manuscripts’ materiality. Through these characters, Howe and Stoddard explore the costs and consequences of self- and literary authorship at the intersections of two overlapping mid-nineteenth-century media traditions: nonprint salon and manuscript cultures and the more recent tradition of commercial print culture. Even as The Hermaphrodite and “Collected” emphasize life writing’s artistry and authenticity and showcase nonprint modes of authorship and circulation as a way of embracing literary and personal autonomy, they also reveal those pathways as imperfect. When read together, these works neither condemn one tradition nor condone the other. Rather, they ask readers to reassess—and address—critical paradigms that limit conceptions of authorship and literary careers.
