摘要

摘要本文探讨了新冠肺炎对毛里求斯岛言论的影响。特别是，我讨论了新冠肺炎之前言论的社会嵌入性质及其在疫情封锁最初几个月的转变。我认为，在毛里求斯，言语在种族间的互动和紧张、社会性以及生活在毛里求斯的克里奥尔人的经历中发挥着关键作用。在2020年初政府强制要求保持社交距离和戴口罩之后，我认为，当毛里求斯被宣布为新冠肺炎“免费”时，人们很快就恢复了空间接近的社交行为。我还认为，毛里求斯人对言论的依赖程度之深，可能会阻碍随后的封锁，因为言论是实现社会性和管理岛上种族紧张局势的手段。

Is COVID-19 Transforming Speech in Mauritius?

ABSTRACT This article considers the impact of COVID-19 on speech in the island of Mauritius. In particular, I discuss the socially embedded nature of speech prior to COVID-19 and its transformation during the early months of pandemic lockdown. I propose that, in Mauritius, speech plays a key role in interethnic interaction and tension, sociality, and in the experiences of Creoles living in Mauritius. Following the government imposition of social distancing and masking during early 2020, I argue that when Mauritius was declared COVID-19 “free,” people quickly reverted to spatially proximal social behaviors. I also argue that subsequent lockdowns may be stymied by how deeply Mauritians rely on speech as means to achieve sociality and manage ethnic tension on the island.

期刊介绍： Journal of African Diaspora Archaeology and Heritage provides a focal point for peer-reviewed publications in interdisciplinary studies in archaeology, history, material culture, and heritage dynamics concerning African descendant populations and cultures across the globe. The Journal invites articles on broad topics, including the historical processes of culture, economics, gender, power, and racialization operating within and upon African descendant communities. We seek to engage scholarly, professional, and community perspectives on the social dynamics and historical legacies of African descendant cultures and communities worldwide. The Journal publishes research articles and essays that review developments in these interdisciplinary fields.
