摘要

这项研究表明，朱诺在《纽约客》(2018)上发表的文章《沉默》(the silence)中所揭示的定义朱诺Díaz的沉默，也渗透到他的小说中。我在《淹死》(1996)中探讨了沉默的艺术和意识形态功能是如何传达暴力和男子气概的。声音的表现和声音的缺失，虽然看似无害，但却清晰地表达了强化和挑战男性准则的等级制度，而手势则改变了它们。Drown的故事是基于沉默的破裂和随后的主角发展的“真相时刻”叙事。本文阐述了尤尼尔与沉默的复杂关系，以及他从一个爱说话的男孩到一个沉默寡言的青少年，并最终成为该系列故事的作者兼叙述者的演变。

Drowned Out: Silence in Junot Díaz’s Short Stories

This study proposes the silence that defined Junot Díaz, as revealed in his New Yorker (2018) essay “The Silence,” also permeates his fiction. I explore how the artistic and ideopolitical function of silence in Drown (1996) informs violence and masculinity. The representations of sound and its absence, though seemingly innocuous, articulate hierarchies that reinforce and contest masculine codes, while gestures transform them. Drown’s stories are “moment of truth” narratives predicated on the rupture of silence and subsequent protagonist development. This essay elucidates Yunior’s complex relation to silence and his evolution from vocal boy to reticent adolescent and, eventually, to the author-narrator of the collection’s stories.
