摘要

摘要:在《曼斯菲尔德庄园》中，范妮·普莱斯的绅士之旅与托马斯·伯特伦爵士的安提瓜之旅如出一辙。事实上，它们是同一枚硬币的两面。故事情节以成长和完善为中心——既训练范妮成为一名适婚的年轻女士，也解决托马斯爵士安提瓜庄园的糖生产问题。范妮必须经历一个变得“甜美”(她最常用的形容)的过程，就像她的财富所依赖的种植园甘蔗一样。本文对奥斯丁的小说进行了对位式的解读，从加勒比地区炼糖和甘薯的生长角度来解读范妮的成长。

Yam Grounds and Sugar Time: A Contrapuntal Reading of Mansfield Park

Abstract:In Mansfield Park, Fanny Price's journey to gentility parallels Sir Thomas Bertram's journey to Antigua. They are, in fact, two sides of the same coin. The plot centers on growth and refining—both in training Fanny to become a marriageable young lady and in addressing sugar production issues on Sir Thomas's Antigua estate. Fanny must undergo a process to become "sweet" (her most common descriptor) just as surely as the plantation sugar cane on which her fortunes depend. This essay offers a contrapuntal reading of Austen's novel, reading Fanny's growth in terms of sugar refining and yam growth in the Caribbean.

期刊介绍： Studies in Romanticism was founded in 1961 by David Bonnell Green at a time when it was still possible to wonder whether "romanticism" was a term worth theorizing (as Morse Peckham deliberated in the first essay of the first number). It seemed that it was, and, ever since, SiR (as it is known to abbreviation) has flourished under a fine succession of editors: Edwin Silverman, W. H. Stevenson, Charles Stone III, Michael Cooke, Morton Palet, and (continuously since 1978) David Wagenknecht. There are other fine journals in which scholars of romanticism feel it necessary to appear - and over the years there are a few important scholars of the period who have not been represented there by important work.
