摘要
本章发展了Gloria E. Anzaldúa关于nepantlera的概念——她的纳瓦特语衍生术语，意为中间人和桥梁搭建者——通过将nepantlera想象成一个“助产士”，帮助人们象征性地产生对他人的同理心。助产同理心的实践尤其激发了女性主义艺术家的作品。本文通过分析女性主义文集《我们称之为家的桥梁》(Nova Gutierrez的一幅画、Iobel Andemicael的一篇短篇小说和Jesse Swan的一本回忆录)中的作品，阐释了助生者移情的隐喻和实践。文章最后反思了nepantlera的工作对教学和社会正义的影响。
This chapter develops Gloria E. Anzaldúa’s concept of the nepantlera—her Nahuatl-derived term for in-betweeners and bridge builders—by envisioning the nepantlera as a “midwife” who helps people figuratively give birth to empathy for others. The practice of midwifing empathy motivates the work of womanist artists in particular. This essay elucidates this metaphor and practice of midwifing empathy by analyzing works from the womanist anthology this bridge we call home—a painting by Nova Gutierrez, a short story by Iobel Andemicael, and a memoir by Jesse Swan. The essay concludes with reflections on the implications of the work of nepantlera for teaching and for social justice.
