Abstract

Abstract This essay examines the complex relationship that developed between ethnographer Lashon Daley and her research subject, Diane Ferlatte, over the course of Daley’s master’s thesis project and the years beyond. Through storytelling and narrative prose, Daley investigates the roles that grief, death, Black motherhood, and the Black southern oral tradition play within their ever-growing bond. As their relationship progresses from researcher and respondent to mother and daughter, their bond displays the connective tissue that binds one person to another through history, memory, and the common experience of loss. By exploring the performativity of Black women who are bonded by love and not blood, this essay demonstrates how Black womanhood becomes a conduit for grieving and healing.
当黛安给我讲故事的时候
摘要:本文探讨了民族志学者Lashon Daley和她的研究对象Diane Ferlatte在其硕士论文项目的过程中以及之后的几年里发展起来的复杂关系。通过讲故事和叙事散文,戴利调查了悲伤、死亡、黑人母性和南方黑人口述传统在他们日益增长的纽带中所扮演的角色。随着她们的关系从研究者和应答者发展到母女,她们的纽带显示出通过历史、记忆和共同的失去经历将一个人与另一个人联系在一起的结缔组织。通过探索黑人女性的表演,她们是由爱而不是血缘联系在一起的,这篇文章展示了黑人女性如何成为悲伤和治愈的渠道。
