摘要
Tarkan Viking kani (Tarkan versus the Viking)是一部低成本电影,拍摄于土耳其多产的yeilam电影工业的全盛时期,不合时宜地将维京人与匈奴人对立起来,寓言了土耳其在东西方之间的地位。通过将维京人视为西方本质的代表,这部电影参与了我所提出的维京电影的俗套,但从一个罕见的非西方视角出发,将维京人置于东方主义和西方主义的话语中。本文在历史和意识形态背景下考察了泰坎与维京人,并将这部电影作为一个关键的有利位置,从这个角度来考虑(主要是)西方维京电影类型,以及西方电影维京人的风格化形象。
Orientalism meets Occidentalism in Tarkan versus the Vikings
Tarkan Viking kani ( Tarkan versus the Vikings ) (), a low-budget feature film made in the heyday of Turkey’s prolific Yeşilçam film industry, anachronistically pits Viking against Hun in an allegory of Turkey’s position between East and West. By figuring Vikings as representatives of an essential westernness, this film partakes in what I propose is a Viking-film commonplace, but does so from a rare non-western perspective, positioning Vikings within a discourse that is both Orientalist and Occidentalist. This article examines Tarkan versus the Vikings in its historical and ideological contexts, using this film as a critical vantage point from which to consider the (mostly) western Viking film genre, and the stylized image of the West that is the cinematic Viking.
