摘要

摘要：本文结合玛格丽特·沃克和理查德·赖特的工作，与美国南方种植园研究和开发的主要档案进行对比。正如他们的作品生动地表明的那样，土地上的南方黑人劳工不仅仅是为土地所有者的宏伟设计服务的被动主体。他们违背白人业主的意愿，在土地上开辟了具有激进可能性的空间。南方黑人作家，在历史和历史小说的交叉点上工作，在代表黑人生态机构的主流档案的背景下阅读和写作。他们的工作不仅与许多学者现在所称的“种植中心主义”的种族和生态控制逻辑形成了对比，而且在种植生态内部和反对种植生态的情况下都埋下了抵抗和富足的种子。

“Heavy with Plenty”: Writing Abundance in the Plantationocene

Abstract:This essay engages with the work of Margaret Walker and Richard Wright alongside and against the dominant archives of plantation research and development in the United States South. As their work vividly illustrates, Black Southern laborers of the land were not just passive subjects serving the grand design of the landowner. They carved out spaces of radical possibility on the land against the wishes of White property owners. Black Southern writers, working at the intersection of history and historical fiction, read and wrote against the grain of dominant archives to represent Black ecological agency. Their work provides not just a counterpoint to logics of racial and ecological control characteristic of what many scholars now term the “Plantationocene,” but holds seeds of resistance and abundance within and against plantation ecologies.

期刊介绍： In the foreword to the first issue of the The Southern Literary Journal, published in November 1968, founding editors Louis D. Rubin, Jr. and C. Hugh Holman outlined the journal"s objectives: "To study the significant body of southern writing, to try to understand its relationship to the South, to attempt through it to understand an interesting and often vexing region of the American Union, and to do this, as far as possible, with good humor, critical tact, and objectivity--these are the perhaps impossible goals to which The Southern Literary Journal is committed." Since then The Southern Literary Journal has published hundreds of essays by scholars of southern literature examining the works of southern writers and the ongoing development of southern culture.
