Abstract

ABSTRACT:This essay examines animal presence in Katherine Mansfield’s “Prelude,” demonstrating how the text’s aesthetics of animacy—the way different beings in the story undergo creaturely transformations and brim with an uncontainable vitality—cannot be read in isolation from the settler colonial environment of rural New Zealand. In establishing this connection, the essay argues that the dreamlike world of “Prelude” indicates the makings of an emergent settler territory.
在土地与定居者主体性之间——凯瑟琳·曼斯菲尔德《序曲》中的现代主义动物领地
摘要:本文考察了凯瑟琳·曼斯菲尔德的《前奏曲》中动物的存在,展示了文本中的动物美学——故事中不同的生命经历了创造性的转变,并充满了无法控制的活力——不能与新西兰农村的定居者殖民环境隔离开来阅读。在建立这种联系的过程中,文章认为《前奏曲》中梦幻般的世界预示着一个新兴的定居者领地的形成。
