摘要

这篇文章在当代牙买加的背景下阐述了身体作为档案的概念，牙买加是一个同时植根于基督教信仰和非洲宇宙学的国家。作为档案的身体在这里被认为是对身体的一种理解，它承认身体的人工制品储存在个人和集体的身体里，供后代挖掘、批判性地审问、重新制作和/或恢复，并在塑造当今的个人和社区身份、生活可能性和未来世界的想象中进行部署。“身体作为档案”的核心是想象力的工作，将身体作为档案和人工制品，既是收集和记录历史记忆和记忆的空间，也是对记忆和回忆的表达。《当代牙买加身体档案》涵盖了美丽的概念、舞蹈的角色，以及围绕牙买加女性身体的表演的意义。在当前的探索中，嵌入了对过去几代人的生物政治想象如何告知当今挖掘和部署人体人工制品的方式的质疑。

Chat to Mi Back: Meditation on body archive

This article addresses the concept Body as Archive in the context of contemporary Jamaica, a nation simultaneously grounded in Christian Religiosity and rooted in African Cosmology. Body as Archive is identified here as an understanding of the body that recognizes bodily artefacts as stored in individual and collective bodies for future generations to excavate, critically interrogate, re-craft and/or restore and deploy in the fashioning of present-day individual and community identities, life possibilities and future world imaginings. At its core Body as Archive is the work of the imagination to manifest the body as both archive and artefact, both a space for the collection and recording of historical memory and remembrance and itself an expression of memory and re-membrance. In contemporary Jamaica Body as Archive encompasses notions of beauty, the role of dance, and the significance of performance around and about the Jamaican female body. Embedded in this current exploration is an interrogation of the ways in which the bio-political imagination of past generations inform the excavation and deployment of bodily artefacts in the present.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Dance and Somatic Practices is an international refereed journal published twice a year. It has been in publication since 2009 for scholars and practitioners whose research interests focus on the relationship between dance and somatic practices, and the influence that this body of practice exerts on the wider performing arts. In recent years, somatic practices have become more central to many artists'' work and have become more established within educational and training programmes. Despite this, as a body of work it has remained largely at the margins of scholarly debate, finding its presence predominantly through the embodied knowledge of practitioners and their performative contributions. This journal provides a space to debate the work, to consider the impact and influence of the work on performance and discuss the implications for research and teaching. The journal serves a broad international community and invites contributions from a wide range of discipline areas. Particular features include writings that consciously traverse the boundaries between text and performance, taking the form of ‘visual essays'', interviews with leading practitioners, book reviews, themed issues and conference/symposium reports.
