Abstract

Abstract:Beginning from the Herodotean narration of the evacuation of the Ionian city Phokaia and the subsequent diaspora and foundation of Hyele (Elea), “Broken Light on the Ground of Home” traces some movements of that traumatic history within the Parmenidean Song of Being. Xenophanean poetry opens a view onto trauma rendered by displacement under bellicose conditions and forms a link to the Parmenidean poem on the ground of Hyele. Two themes in the poem outline the diasporic movements and traumas of the Phokaian-Hyelean population: first, the dynamics of similarity and difference; second, the turnings between memory and forgetting. The interplay of memory and forgetting animates much of the poem and can be read as one way diasporic trauma tremors in the Parmenidean Song of Being.
家地上的破碎之光:帕门尼诗歌中的非存在与孢子创伤
摘要:从希罗多德对爱奥尼亚城市Phokaia的疏散以及随后的Hyele(Elea)的散居和建立的叙述开始,《家园之地上的破碎之光》追溯了Parmenidian《存在之歌》中那段创伤历史的一些运动。色诺芬尼派诗歌开启了对在好战条件下流离失所所造成的创伤的看法,并与以海勒为基础的帕门尼派诗歌形成了联系。诗中有两个主题概括了福凯海勒人的流散运动和创伤:第一,相似和不同的动态;第二,记忆与遗忘之间的转换。记忆和遗忘的相互作用使这首诗的大部分内容充满活力,可以被解读为散居创伤在《存在之歌》中的一种方式。
