摘要

查尔斯-马图林（Charles Maturin）的《流浪者梅尔莫斯》（Melmoth the Wanderer，1820 年）借鉴了流浪犹太人的传说，在威廉-戈德温（William Godwin）的《圣莱昂》（St. Leon，1799 年）中已经开始的演变过程中，为这个人物注入了浮士德式的特征。马图林的《梅尔莫斯》还反映了 "流浪犹太人 "传说中固有的反犹太主义思想，尤其是至上主义，它将基督教视为犹太预言的真正实现。在受到《梅尔莫斯》影响的法文和意第绪文作品中，超验主义的影响以明显但截然不同的形式持续存在。本文借鉴 Carol Davison 对哥特式反犹太主义的分析和 Karen Grumberg 对 "希伯来哥特式 "的重要探索，讨论了犹太作家，包括来自利沃夫的意第绪语和希伯来语诗人 Uri Zvi Greenberg（1896-1981 年）、波兰出生的意第绪语小说家 Sholem Asch（1880-1957 年）和当代美国小说家达拉-霍恩（Dara Horn，1896-1981 年），是如何在他们的作品中体现超验主义的。美国当代小说家达拉-霍恩（Dara Horn，生于 1977 年）对永恒流浪者的传说进行了挪用和改编，可被视为反映了犹太人对哥特式文学的独特反应。

Melmoth Irreconcilable? Supersessionism and Jewish and Christian Responses to the Wandering Jew Legend

Charles Maturin’s Melmoth the Wanderer (1820) draws from the legend of the Wandering Jew, infusing the figure with Faustian characteristics in an evolution already begun in William Godwin’s St. Leon (1799). Maturin’s Melmoth also reflects the anti-Judaism inherent in the Wandering Jew legend, especially supersessionism, which views Christianity as the true fulfillment of Jewish prophecy. The influence of supersessionism endures in discernible, but very different forms, in works influenced by Melmoth in French and in Yiddish. Drawing on Carol Davison’s analysis of Gothic antisemitism and Karen Grumberg’s important exploration of ‘Hebrew Gothic’, this essay discusses how Jewish writers, including Uri Zvi Greenberg (1896–1981), a poet of Yiddish and Hebrew from Lviv, Polish-born Yiddish novelist Sholem Asch (1880–1957), and contemporary U.S. novelist Dara Horn (b. 1977) have appropriated and adapted the legend of the eternal wanderer in ways that could be seen as reflecting a distinctly Jewish response to the gothic.

期刊介绍： The official journal of the International Gothic Association considers the field of Gothic studies from the eighteenth century to the present day. Gothic Studies opens a forum for dialogue and cultural criticism, and provides a specialist journal for scholars working in a field which is today taught or researched in academic institutions around the globe. The journal invites contributions from scholars working within any period of the Gothic; interdisciplinary scholarship is especially welcome, as are studies of works across the range of media, beyond the written word.
