摘要

熟悉简·奥斯汀的受欢迎历史,也就是熟悉她的作品经常被描述为专注于次要和无关紧要的事情。这篇文章询问我们如何解读奥斯汀对人类世微观历史的关注。本文聚焦于桑迪顿,一个与时间不连续性密切相关的碎片,通过研究桑迪顿,首先是与火山引发的气候变化的关系,其次是在人类世的黑暗中,来回应人类世时间的宏观/微观分叉。将《桑迪顿》解读为一部冲向灾难的“奥新世”文本,就像狂欢节的镜子一样,反映了奥斯汀自己对1816年气候灾难的回顾性预期。《桑迪顿》在刚开始的时候就结束了,它邀请读者进行前瞻性和探索性的阅读。这是一场将经济和地缘政治史与气候史联系在一起的碎片和闹剧。这是一部“1800年冻死”和人类世的小说。

Sanditon without a Summer
To be familiar with Jane Austen’s reception history is to also be familiar with her work being frequently characterised as preoccupied with the minor and the inconsequential. This article asks how we might read Austen’s concern with the microhistorical alongside the Anthropocene. Focusing on Sanditon, a fragment with a close relationship to temporal discontinuity, this article responds to the macro/micro bifurcation of Anthropocene time by examining Sanditon, first, in relation to the volcanically induced climate change that occurred in its immediate context, and second, in the dark light of the Anthropocene. To read Sanditon as an ‘Austenocene’ text, hurtling towards catastrophe, reflects, like a carnival mirror, Austen’s own retrospective anticipation of 1816’s climatological disaster. Sanditon, ending when it is still beginning, invites anticipatory and exploratory readings. It is a fragment and a farce that yokes economic and geopolitical history with climatological history. It is a novel of ‘eighteen-hundred and froze to death’ and of the Anthropocene.
