摘要
摘要:1877年，当圣多明各(Santo Domingo)的圣塔María la Menor大教堂(Basilica Cathedral of Santa)内的铅箱中发现克里斯托弗·哥伦布(Christopher Columbus)的遗骸时，圣多明各市政厅提议建造一座雕像和一座陵墓。哥伦布雕像的基座上有一个印度人，或者一个土著妇女，可能是泰诺酋长阿纳考纳，她给站在纪念碑顶上的海军上将写了赞美的话。这篇文章探讨了阿纳考纳的种族化和性别化的身体是如何象征性地证实了一种公共民族主义话语，同时可以说是抹杀了黑人和土著人民自1492年以来在塑造岛上生活中所扮演的角色。
Anacaona Writes Back: The Columbus Statue in Santo Domingo as a Site of Erasure
Abstract:When Christopher Columbus’s human remains were discovered in a lead box inside Santo Domingo’s Basilica Cathedral of Santa María la Menor in 1877, Santo Domingo City Hall proposed commissioning a statue and a mausoleum. The Columbus statue featured an india, or a Native woman, presumably Taino chieftain Anacaona, on the pedestal base, writing words of praise to the admiral, who stood atop the monument. This essay explores how Anacaona’s racialized and gendered body symbolically validated a public nationalist discourse, while arguably erasing the roles that Blacks and Indigenous peoples had played in shaping island life since 1492.
