Abstract

Abstract:This piece examines the narrativization of the scars on Prince's back to read a narrative of an alternative humanism, that teaches us out of dispossession as ethics. Sylvia Wynter has argued that under the Western bourgeois order gender and race are a "function of genre." In showing the scars on her back to the culture that produced them, Prince disrupts these genres and no longer remains (only) subject to the white power around her but a maker of alternative and extrinsic narratives about blackness and being that we might read if we wish to do so.

玛丽·普林斯的回归及其对反奴隶制同情的批判

摘要:本文通过对王子背上伤痕的叙述，解读了一种另类人文主义的叙事，它教导我们脱离剥夺作为伦理。西尔维娅·温特认为，在西方资产阶级秩序下，性别和种族是“类型的功能”。通过将她背上的伤疤展示给产生这些伤疤的文化，普林斯打破了这些类型，不再(仅仅)受制于她周围的白人权力，而是一个关于黑人和存在的另类和外在叙事的创造者，如果我们愿意的话，我们可能会读到这些叙事。

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.
