Abstract

Abstract: This essay interprets the literary means Benjamin Franklin used in establishing a novel style of diplomatic representation. This style dispensed with much, but not all, of the ritual of what was then regarded as the old, European diplomacy in which diplomatic actors performed the dual role of representation, being both representative and representational; that is, as both spokespeople for, and emblems of, their national cause. Through them one is able to detect the interweaving of existing diplomatic standards and protocols in a self-consciously New World vocation with its own demands for recognition from the imperial center.
本杰明-富兰克林与新外交诗学
摘要:这篇文章阐释了本杰明-富兰克林在建立一种新颖的外交代表风格时所使用的文学手段。这种风格摒弃了当时被认为是古老的欧洲外交中的大部分(但不是全部)礼仪,在这种外交中,外交人员扮演着代表的双重角色,既是代表,又是代表;也就是说,既是国家事业的代言人,又是国家事业的象征。通过他们,我们可以发现现有的外交标准和礼仪与自觉的新世界使命交织在一起,新世界使命本身就要求得到帝国中心的承认。
