Abstract

ABSTRACT This article attempts to analyse some images of Java in Polish travel writings from the second half of the 19th century in a comparative framework, and linking the various aspects of representations of the island with the respective travellers’ background, social and intellectual trends of the epoch, and literary conventions. This approach is based on concepts of imagology, habitus and comparative reading. The travelogues by three Polish authors are analysed here: aristocrat, lawyer and politician Adam Sierakowski (1846–1912), soldier Henryk Sienkiewicz (1852–1936, a relative of a famous writer by the same name), and an apostolic delegate for the East Indies Władysław Michał Zaleski (1852–1925). Polish travel accounts are juxtaposed with texts written by English, American, Russian, and Javanese travellers: Charles Kinloch (1810–1893), Eliza Ruhamah Scidmore (1856–1928), V. Tatarinov (c.1860), Nikolai Miklouho-Maclay (1846–1888), and Radèn Mas Arya Candranegara V alias Purwalelana (1837–1885). The examples show that although some descriptive aspects of Java may be linked to national identity, far more fruitful would be a detailed examination of texts and contexts through a comparative analysis.

爪哇马赛克

本文试图在比较框架下分析19世纪下半叶波兰旅游作品中的一些爪哇形象，并将该岛的各个方面与各自旅行者的背景，时代的社会和知识趋势以及文学习俗联系起来。这种方法基于意象学、习惯学和比较阅读的概念。本文分析了三位波兰作家的游记:贵族、律师和政治家亚当·西拉科夫斯基(Adam Sierakowski, 1846-1912)，士兵亨利克·西恩凯维奇(Henryk Sienkiewicz, 1852-1936，一位著名作家的亲戚)，以及东印度群岛的使徒代表Władysław米克沃泽莱斯基(michaowzaleski, 1852-1925)。波兰的旅行记录与英国、美国、俄罗斯和爪哇旅行者所写的文本并列:查尔斯·金洛克(1810-1893)、伊丽莎·鲁哈玛·希德莫尔(1856-1928)、V·塔塔里诺夫(1860年)、尼古拉·米克洛霍-麦克雷(1846-1888)和rad·马斯·艾莉亚·坎德拉内加拉五世(1837-1885)。这些例子表明，虽然爪哇的一些描述性方面可能与民族特性有关，但通过比较分析对文本和背景进行详细检查将更有成效。
