摘要

摘要《夜莺》以19世纪20年代中期的范地为背景,描绘了一个黑暗而令人不安的塔斯马尼亚过去,那里居住着红衫军、罪犯、原住民和一些自由定居者。有争议的场景包括一名年轻女罪犯被反复强奸,她的丈夫和婴儿被谋杀,以及一名土著妇女被强奸和谋杀。白人女主角的银幕经历与1826年塔斯马尼亚殖民地妇女伊丽莎白·蒂布斯(Elizabeth Tibbs)、她的丈夫和婴儿尸体上发生的暴力事件有着惊人的相似之处。在将这部电影置于其历史背景下之后,本文通过阐述这些相似之处来提供一种模仿阅读。它询问了这些关于女性生活的虚构和历史描述之间的关键分歧点,以探索它们在殖民地范迪曼的土地及其在21世纪澳大利亚的描绘中揭示了性别、阶级、种族、暴力和正义。

Uncanny parallels: Jennifer Kent’s the Nightingale, violence, and the Vandemonian past
ABSTRACT Set in mid-1820s Van Diemen’s Land, The Nightingale depicts a dark and disturbing Tasmanian past populated with redcoats, convicts, Aboriginal people, and a few free settlers. Controversial scenes include the repeated rape of a young female convict, the murders of her husband and infant, and the rape and murder of an Aboriginal woman. Uncanny parallels can be drawn between the on-screen experiences of the white female lead, and the violence visited on the bodies of Tasmanian colonial woman Elizabeth Tibbs, her husband, and infant in 1826. After situating the film within its historical context, this paper provides a mimetic reading through elaborating these parallels. It interrogates key points of divergence between these fictional and historical accounts of women’s lives to explore what they reveal about gender, class, race, violence, and justice in colonial Van Diemen’s Land and its depiction in twenty-first century Australia.
