摘要

这篇文章深入研究了北印度殖民地的疾病、传染病、种姓、性别和宗教之间的联系。它不仅将“贱民”视为一个人物或一个类别,而且将其视为一个概念,被社会中的主导阶层用来处理疾病、接触区和社会距离。本文着重于20世纪初流行的印地语印刷文化中的精选观念,这些文化将排他性术语正常化,以重申国家的福祉。通过对达利特(特别关注达利特妇女)、仆人、性工作者和穆斯林男性这四个在不同意义上被视为“贱民”的形象的表现,文章强调了这些形象是如何通过耻辱和卫生的习语体现“他者”的。

Disease and the Untouchable: Insights from Vernacular Histories of North India
This article delves into the connections between disease, contagion, caste, gender and religion in colonial North India. It looks at the ‘Untouchable’ not just as a figure or a category but as a concept that is utilised by dominant sections to deal with disease, contact zones and social distancing in society. The article focuses on select perceptions in popular Hindi print culture of the early twentieth century, which normalised exclusionary terms to reaffirm the nation’s well-being. Through representations of four figures—the Dalit (with a specific focus on Dalit women), the servant, the sex worker and the Muslim male—all considered ‘Untouchable’ in different senses, the article highlights how these figures embody the ‘Other’ through idioms of stigma and hygiene.
