摘要

将勃兰登堡选区转变为普鲁士王国的四代霍亨索伦统治者--从一个地区性角色转变为一个大国--都在其宫廷和军队中雇佣了黑人。通过宫廷表演(包括游行和竞技)以及艺术委托,勃兰登堡统治者为了自己的目的,调整了表现和展示人类差异和等级制度的现有传统。作为神圣罗马帝国唯一加入大西洋奴隶贸易的成员,勃兰登堡在奴隶贸易期间和失败后都特别致力于展示其全球抱负。勃兰登堡-普鲁士姗姗来迟的崛起特别清楚地表明,对于近代早期的国家来说,重要的不仅是对外企业,还有其宫廷表现形式。通过在表演和艺术中展示和表现黑人,勃兰登堡的统治者参与了各种形式的 "种族塑造",这不仅改变了人们对撒哈拉以南非洲人的看法,也改变了人们对王室血统的看法。

Race-Making Festivities in Brandenburg-Prussia, 1652–1750
The four generations of Hohenzollern rulers who transformed the electorate of Brandenburg into the kingdom of Prussia — a regional player into a great power — all employed Black men at their courts and in their armies. Through court performance, including processions and tournaments, as well as through artistic commissions, the Brandenburgian rulers adapted existing traditions of representing and displaying human difference and hierarchy for their own ends. As the only member of the Holy Roman Empire to join the Atlantic slave trade, Brandenburg had a particular commitment to staging its global aspirations, both during its slave-trading venture and after it failed. Brandenburg-Prussia’s belated rise exhibits with particular clarity the importance to early modern statecraft not just of foreign enterprise but of its courtly representations. Through the display and representation of Black people in performance and art, the rulers of Brandenburg participated in forms of ‘race-making’ that altered the perception not only of sub-Saharan Africans but of the princely lineage as well.
