Abstract

This article examines the complex strategies of composition, translation, and outreach that Behrouz Boochani and Selahattin Demirtaş used while producing works of literature in prison. Whereas Demirtaş has been writing in Turkish and within a prison in Istanbul, Boochani asked for his writing to be published in English when he was detained as a stateless person in a multinational non-space – an offshore center where refugees from all over the world were detained. Instead of categorizing these works as extensions of their authors’ ethnic or national identities, this article reveals how they position themselves vis-à-vis different forms of oppression by producing transnational pieces of world literature.
从偏远监狱到全球读者
本文探讨了Behrouz Boochani和Selahattin demirtau在狱中创作文学作品时所使用的复杂的写作、翻译和外联策略。demirtau在伊斯坦布尔的一所监狱里一直用土耳其语写作,而Boochani在作为无国籍人士被关押在多国非空间(一个关押来自世界各地难民的离岸中心)时,要求用英语出版他的作品。本文并没有将这些作品归类为作者种族或国家身份的延伸,而是揭示了他们如何通过创作跨国世界文学作品来面对-à-vis不同形式的压迫。
