摘要
本文通过类型小说的视角分析了彼得·凯里的小说《我的假货生活》（2003），重点探讨了哥特式模式如何与后殖民研究中的关键概念相结合。对玛丽·雪莱（Mary Shelley）的《弗兰肯斯坦》（Frankenstein）或《现代普罗米修斯》（The Modern Prometheus）（1818）的文本间引用，以及与斯蒂芬·金（Stephen King）的《黑暗的一半》（The Dark Half）（1990）和《单身汉的重要性》（The Importance of Being Bachman）（1996）的类比进行了研究，以将凯里的后殖民哥特式置于背景中。此外，从Frantz Fanon和Oswaldo de Andrade的理论研究中，我认为这部小说的主要人物表现出的态度寓言地反映了一个前定居者殖民地的民族文学形成的阶段。
Decolonising the Mind of the Antipodean Author: Gothic Tropes and Postcolonial Discourse in Peter Carey’s My Life as a Fake
This article analyses Peter Carey’s novel My Life as a Fake (2003) through the lens of genre fiction, focusing on how the Gothic mode combines with key concepts in postcolonial studies. Intertextual references to Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, or The Modern Prometheus (1818) and analogies with Stephen King’s The Dark Half (1990) and “The Importance of Being Bachman” (1996) are investigated to contextualise Carey’s postcolonial Gothic. Furthermore, taking a cue from Frantz Fanon and Oswaldo de Andrade’s theoretical studies, I argue that the main characters of this novel display attitudes that allegorically reflect the stages through which the national literature of a former settler colony is shaped.
