摘要

本文以夏洛特Brontë的小说《简·爱》(1847)为背景,考察了布雷默的小说《邻居们》(1837)中奴隶制的象征。特别是对黑格这个人物(伯莎·梅森在《简·爱》中的反映)进行了分析。《邻居》从字面上和象征意义上都描绘了奴隶制;首先,作为殖民地种植园和跨大西洋奴隶贸易的代表,其次,作为白人妇女屈从的象征。奴隶贸易被描述为根本不是瑞典人的行为,而参与奴隶贸易的瑞典人被外国人腐蚀了。被压迫的错误与被压迫者的错误加倍,拥有和成为奴隶都被构建为非瑞典人的种族地位。以奴隶为象征,顺从作为白人女性气质的反面形象出现。做一个真正的女人等于不允许自己被当作奴隶对待。

Hagar and the Symbols of Slavery: Reading Fredrika Bremer’s the Neighbours through Carhlotte Brontë’s Jane Eyre
ABSTRACT Using Charlotte Brontë’s Jane Eyre (1847) as a backdrop, this article examines the symbol of slavery in Fredrika Bremer’s novel The Neighbours (1837). In particular, the character Hagar (mirrored in Jane Eyre by Bertha Mason) is analysed. The Neighbours depict slavery both on a literal and a symbolic level; firstly, in the representation of colonial plantations and transatlantic slave trade and secondly as a symbol of white women’s submission. The slave trade is described as fundamentally un-Swedish, and Swedes complicit in slave trade as corrupted by foreigners. The wrongs of oppression are doubled with the wrongs of being oppressed, and both owning and being slave are constructed as non-Swedish positions marked by race. Building on the slave as a symbol, submission appears as a counter image of white femininity. Being a proper woman equals not allowing oneself to be treated as a slave.
