摘要

一则被忽视的广告题为 "南方事件"(1849 年),呼吁人们关注爱伦-克拉夫特在 1848 年逃离美国奴隶制时的西班牙化妆舞会。作者强调了她的男性化装扮、假装残疾、出海逃亡以及 "黝黑的肤色表明她是西班牙人"。因此,这篇文章通过重新审视广告(1849 年)以及与其肖像(1850 年)和奴隶叙事(1860 年)的关系,对艾伦的跨国化妆舞会进行了重新诠释。其中的重点是英美扩张、西班牙/墨西哥迁移和前贝尔蒙时期奴役期间的半球冲突史--在陆地、边境和海上的冲突。埃伦的故事还与十九世纪中叶兴起的文学传统相结合。

Ellen Craft's “Spanish” Masquerade: Racially (Mis)Reading Hispanicism in Her Cross-Dressing, Feigning Disability, and Running to Sea

An overlooked advertisement, entitled “An Incident at the South” (1849), calls attention to Ellen Craft's Spanish masquerade during her 1848 escape from American slavery. The author underscores her masculine costume, feigning disability, running to sea, and “a darkness of complexion that betokened Spanish extraction.” Despite contemporary criticism, the advertisement asserts Spanish-ness in the production history of Ellen's escape; thus the essay considers a reinterpretation of Ellen's transnational masquerades by reexamining the advertisement (1849) and in relation to her portrait (1850) and slave narrative (1860). Of emphasis is a history of hemisphere conflict – over land, at the borderlands, and at sea – during Anglo-American expansion, Spanish/Mexican displacement, and antebellum enslavement. Ellen's story is also contextualized with rising literary traditions of the mid-nineteenth century.
