摘要

本文将非殖民化的哥特作为一种从前殖民地地区和社区创作的哥特小说的新方法进行理论化。它回应了一个新兴的哥特式作品,它将自己置于一个由社会和环境不稳定的持续种族化分布所塑造的世界中,因此殖民权力是一个持久的物质现实。为了解决这样的虚构,文章提出,需要重新评估幽灵学框架,通过这个框架,哥特和(后)殖民迄今为止已经接触到。在20世纪后期的后现代性文化氛围中形成的这些观念,依赖于一种划时代的断裂假设,这种断裂使得殖民历史成为过去;因此,它们缺乏与殖民权力的积极形成有关的叙事。因此,本文概述了另一种方法,将哥特小说置于资本主义世界体系的背景下,这个体系——到目前为止——是由种族的殖民类别、性别的异族父权制类别和作为可掠夺资源的自然话语的工具化构成的。

Decolonial Gothic: Beyond the Postcolonial in Gothic Studies
This article theorises decolonial Gothic as a novel approach to Gothic fiction from formerly colonised regions and communities. It responds to an emerging body of Gothic production, which situates itself in a world shaped by persistently racialised distributions of social and environmental precarity, and where colonial power is thus an enduring material reality. To address such fiction, the article proposes, requires a reassessment of the hauntological frameworks through which Gothic and the (post)colonial have hitherto been brought into contact. Forged in the cultural climate of late-twentieth-century postmodernity, these hinge on the assumption of an epochal break, which renders colonial history a thing of the past; thus, they fall short of narratives that engage with active formations of colonial power. Accordingly, the article outlines an alternative approach, positioning Gothic fiction in the context of the capitalist world-system, which – into the present – is structured by colonial categories of race, heteropatriarchal categories of gender, and instrumentalising discourses of nature as plunderable resource.

期刊介绍: The official journal of the International Gothic Association considers the field of Gothic studies from the eighteenth century to the present day. Gothic Studies opens a forum for dialogue and cultural criticism, and provides a specialist journal for scholars working in a field which is today taught or researched in academic institutions around the globe. The journal invites contributions from scholars working within any period of the Gothic; interdisciplinary scholarship is especially welcome, as are studies of works across the range of media, beyond the written word.
