摘要

摘要：萨福借用神话传统，在诗歌中把女性同性恋表现为酷儿。首先，我展示了萨福在片段58和16中对蒂托诺斯和海伦作为情色范式的援引是如何将女性同性爱情描绘成非规范的、被失落笼罩的，同时也是对称的和理想化的。然后，我提出，Homeric Andromache也为萨福在片段16和31中对演讲者欲望的表达提供了信息，我认为，认识到Andromache的潜在例子有助于我们理解萨福在这些歌曲中是如何将女性同性恋置于与传统婚姻的痛苦对立中的。

Sappho's Mythic Models for Female Homoeroticism

Abstract:This paper contends that Sappho draws upon the mythic tradition to represent female homoeroticism as queer in her poetry. First, I show how Sappho's invocation of Tithonos and Helen as erotic paradigms in fragments 58 and 16 figures female same-sex love as non-normative and shadowed by loss, while also symmetrical and idealized. Then I propose that the Homeric Andromache also informs Sappho's representation of her speakers' desires in fragments 16 and 31, and I argue that recognizing Andromache's latent example helps us to understand how Sappho, in these songs, positions female homoeroticism in painful opposition to conventional marriage.
