Abstract

Grounded in the material and historical specificity of the Durham Coalfield, this essay engages two unlikely modes of field theory: the vein of radical poetry associated with the “open field” in the 1970s, and the parallel resurgence of a vernacular Marxism committed to reorienting the critique of capital “from below.” Tracing the intersection of open field poetics and partisan knowledge through Barry MacSweeney’s Black Torch (1978) and Bill Griffiths’s Coal (1990–91) as practices that come to militate against dominant methods of reading or rendering the coalfield, field theory is recast against a critical terrain of struggle over labor, energy, and infrastructure in the twentieth century.

斗争的地形:立足开放领域
摘要 本文立足于达勒姆煤田的物质和历史特性,探讨了两种不太可能出现的田野理论模式:20 世纪 70 年代与 "开放田野 "相关的激进诗歌,以及与之平行的致力于 "从下往上 "重新定位资本批判的乡土马克思主义的复苏。通过巴里-麦克斯维尼(Barry MacSweeney)的《黑色火炬》(1978 年)和比尔-格里菲斯(Bill Griffiths)的《煤炭》(1990-91 年),追溯开放田野诗学和党派知识的交汇点,这些实践开始反对阅读或呈现煤田的主流方法,田野理论在二十世纪劳动、能源和基础设施斗争的关键领域中被重新塑造。
