摘要

查尔斯·鲍尔1836年的奴隶故事不仅是一个逃离奴役的自传体故事的例子,它还包括了被捕获并带到北美的非洲人的故事。鲍尔的叙述记录了到达非洲的非洲人的异质性——从西非穆斯林到刚果人,一个无处不在的术语在他的叙述中被赋予了更多的特殊性。鲍尔的目的是区分一个移民和像他自己一样可能是第二代奴隶的人,这表明他属于一种新的文化。鲍尔的描述与佐拉·尼尔·赫斯顿对科索拉的描述相似,科索拉是最后一个被带到北美的非洲奴隶的记录。鲍尔记录自己遭遇的角色与赫斯顿作为人种学家和杜波依斯作为社会历史学家的角色相似。

Recording Africa: Charles Ball’s 1836 Narrative of Enslavement and Encounters
Charles Ball’s 1836 slave narrative is not only an example of an autobiographical narrative of escape from enslavement, it includes narratives of Africans who have been captured and brought to North America. Ball’s narrative records the heterogeneity of Africans arriving—from Muslim West Africans to those from the Congo, a ubiquitous term given more specificity in his narrative. Defining a distinction between an arrivant and someone, like himself, who may be a second generation enslaved person is Ball’s purpose, suggesting he belongs to a new culture. Ball’s descriptions parallel Zora Neale Hurston’s description of Kossola, a record of the last African brought to North America as an enslaved person. Ball’s role recording his encounters parallels that of Hurston as ethnographer and W. E. B. DuBois as a social historian.
