摘要

摘要:本文探讨了一些当代英语小说中展示的前现代过去的投机资源，重点是奥克塔维亚-巴特勒（Octavia Butler）和玛格丽特-阿特伍德（Margaret Atwood）的小说。其中，中世纪投机主义通过塑造一种以工人为中心的浪漫主义叙事形式，为废墟般的 "新封建 "未来提供了一个批判的视角。14 世纪晚期的英国诗歌《皮尔斯-普洛曼》被视为此类中世纪过去版本的前现代推测性先驱和对话者。

Medieval Futures and the Postwork Romance

Abstract:

This essay explores speculative resources in the premodern past as displayed in some contemporary anglophone fiction, with a focus on novels by Octavia Butler and Margaret Atwood. Among its retrievals, speculative medievalism offers a critical vantage point on ruinous, "neofeudal" futures by fashioning a form of romance narrative centered on workers. The late-fourteenth century English poem Piers Plowman is looked to as a premodern speculative precursor and interlocutor for such versions of the medieval past.

期刊介绍： New Literary History focuses on questions of theory, method, interpretation, and literary history. Rather than espousing a single ideology or intellectual framework, it canvasses a wide range of scholarly concerns. By examining the bases of criticism, the journal provokes debate on the relations between literary and cultural texts and present needs. A major international forum for scholarly exchange, New Literary History has received six awards from the Council of Editors of Learned Journals.
