Abstract

Abstract:This essay reads displaced Black voices and figures in abolitionist art and poetry as African Indigenes. It discusses the beads around the necks of two figures in Romantic visual culture. The first is a painting of a real Senegalese man, Prince Peter Panah, with Carl Bernhard Wädstrom by Carl Frederik Von Breda. The second is a reinterpretation of this painting in a mezzotint, The Benevolent Effects of Abolishing Slavery, or the Planter Instructing His N--- by W. Pyott, 1792. The beads in both images articulate Black diasporic resistance and Indigeneity that puncture the totality of Romantic abolitionism’s framing.

抵抗之珠：解读浪漫废奴主义中的黑色双孢子虫愤怒

摘要:本文将废奴主义艺术和诗歌中流离失所的黑人的声音和形象解读为非洲土著。讨论了浪漫主义视觉文化中两个人物脖子上的珠子。第一幅画是一个真实的塞内加尔人，彼得·帕纳王子和卡尔·伯恩哈德Wädstrom，作者是卡尔·弗雷德里克·冯·布雷达。第二幅是对这幅画的重新诠释，这幅画是w·派奥特(W. Pyott)在1792年创作的《废除奴隶制的仁慈效果，或种植园主指导他的N》。这两幅画中的珠子都清晰地表达了黑人流散的抵抗和本土化，这些都刺穿了浪漫废奴主义框架的整体。

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.
