Abstract

Abstract: Critical discussions of Romantic conversational practices have focused on concepts of sentiment, freedom, and the flow or ease of exchange of spoken words, and their literary representation. It has not always been apparent, however, that 'frictionless' conversation requires of the participants certain physical and sensory competencies or abilities. Disabilities that affect communication reveal much about politeness, social control, accessibility, and equity. This article offers a reading of John Poole's one act farce, Deaf as a Post (1823), as a comic play about conversational friction.

浪漫的社交、聋人喜剧和约翰·普尔的《聋人邮局》(1823年)

摘要:对浪漫主义会话实践的批判性讨论主要集中在情感、自由、口语交流的流畅性及其文学表现等概念上。然而，“无摩擦”的对话并不总是明显地要求参与者具备一定的身体和感官能力。影响交流的残疾揭示了礼貌、社会控制、可及性和公平性。本文将约翰·普尔的独幕剧《邮局的聋子》(1823)作为一部关于对话摩擦的喜剧来阅读。

期刊介绍： Studies in Romanticism was founded in 1961 by David Bonnell Green at a time when it was still possible to wonder whether "romanticism" was a term worth theorizing (as Morse Peckham deliberated in the first essay of the first number). It seemed that it was, and, ever since, SiR (as it is known to abbreviation) has flourished under a fine succession of editors: Edwin Silverman, W. H. Stevenson, Charles Stone III, Michael Cooke, Morton Palet, and (continuously since 1978) David Wagenknecht. There are other fine journals in which scholars of romanticism feel it necessary to appear - and over the years there are a few important scholars of the period who have not been represented there by important work.
