Abstract

Abstract:This essay uses the example of William Dean Howells to redefine periodical time and suggest new ways in which extraliterary time manifests itself in literary form and content. Howells spent his early life typesetting for periodicals. Here he first encountered periodical time's key component parts: the human time of periodical labor and the paradoxical nature of periodical temporality. In A Hazard of New Fortunes (1889) he later wrote a novel in which a periodical is the major protagonist. The essay argues that Howells's experience of periodical time coincided with his formative experience of extraliterary time and that the two come together to shape the literary time of A Hazard of New Fortunes.

威廉·迪恩·豪威尔斯的《期刊时间

摘要：本文以威廉·迪恩·豪厄尔为例，对期刊时间进行了重新定义，并提出了文外时间在文学形式和内容上表现的新途径。豪厄尔早年为期刊排字。在这里，他首先遇到了期刊时间的关键组成部分：期刊劳动的人的时间和期刊时间性的悖论性。在《新财富的危险》（1889）中，他后来写了一部小说，其中一本期刊是主要主角。文章认为，豪厄尔的期刊时代经历与其文学外时间的形成经历相吻合，二者共同构成了《新财富的危险》的文学时代。
