Abstract

This article has two interrelated aims: first, to offer readers a critical survey of poetry production in South Africa over the last 30 years, the 30-year period being preceded by a consideration of key markers in the poetry of the 1970s and 1980s; second, to engage in debates on distinctions between the poetry of the high mimetic and the low mimetic; on poetry of the page and the stage; and on women’s poetry and the womanist poem. With consideration of women’s poetry having raised debates among US-based poet-critics on Lyric/L.A.N.G.U.A.G.E. Poetics, the overarching objective is to pursue a language of criticism that is responsive to the aesthetic range and variety of poetry in South Africa.

南非诗歌:走向一种审美回应的语言

本文有两个相互关联的目的:首先，为读者提供过去30年南非诗歌创作的批判性调查，在这30年之前，考虑到20世纪70年代和80年代诗歌中的关键标志;第二，讨论高模仿和低模仿的诗歌之间的区别;论书页上和舞台上的诗歌;以及女性诗歌和女性主义诗歌。考虑到女性诗歌已经引起了美国诗人评论家对抒情/L.A.N.G.U.A.G.E.的争论诗学的首要目标是追求一种对南非诗歌的审美范围和多样性做出反应的批评语言。
