摘要

摘要:本文考察了早期美国女性的体诗,尤其是在同性友谊和浪漫关系中创作和交流的体诗。它首先讨论了男性诗人在求爱服务中使用印刷体顶体诗,考虑到这些诗是如何将女性暴露在公众面前的。另一方面,女性手稿顶体诗拒绝了异性恋中女性主体的孤立,而是在其创作和流通实践中创造了共同体。例如,这篇文章转向了来自新英格兰的年轻教师Charity Bryant所写和收到的顶体诗,她对其他女性的爱促使人们交换了将同性爱情纳入性别尊重和道德的更大框架的顶体诗歌手稿。总之,这些诗歌展示了女性手稿实践对关系的适应,这些关系包括但远远超出了浪漫友谊的修辞。文章认为,在这种交流中,顶体词使同性关系正常化,使其清晰可辨,并为子孙后代保留下来。

Charity Bryant and the Queer Affordances of the Early American Acrostic
Abstract:This article investigates early American women's acrostic poetry, especially as it was written and exchanged in same-sex friendships and romantic relationships. It begins with a discussion of male poets' deployment of the print acrostic in the service of courtship, considering how such poems expose women to the public eye. Women's manuscript acrostics, on the other hand, refuse the isolation of the female subject in the heterosexual pair, instead creating community in their composition and circulation practices. By way of example, the article turns to acrostic poetry written and received by Charity Bryant, a young teacher from New England whose affections for other women prompted the exchange of manuscript acrostics that fit same-sex love into the larger framework of gendered respectability and morality. Taken together, these poems demonstrate the adaptation of women's manuscript practices to relationships that included but went well beyond the rhetoric of romantic friendship. In this exchange, the article argues, acrostics normalize same-sex relationships, making them legible and preserving them for posterity.
