摘要

本文分析了阿马萨·德拉诺(Amasa Delano)的《南北半球的航行和旅行叙事》(1817)和罗莎琳德·艾米莉亚·杨(Rosalind Amelia Young。它将德拉诺对该岛的描述和杨所描述的加州基督复临安息日会传教士的传教工作视为认识暴力的例子。后者源于帝国对岛民的歪曲,以及对他们强加的美国文化身份。针对皮特凯恩社区的暴力行为与德拉诺自称的不干预方法有关,他将岛民描述为让-雅克·卢梭的“自然之子”,以及使岛民皈依基督复临安息日会的直接参与有关。本文测试了德拉诺和基督复临安息日会的方法是否相互排斥,或者它们是否代表了同一帝国主义项目的两种不同愿景,即将皮特凯恩岛民视为殖民地的“他者”。

The ‘uncorrupted’ Paradise: Religion and imperial epistemic violence on Pitcairn Island
This article analyses chapters from Amasa Delano’s Narrative of Voyages and Travels in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres (1817) and Rosalind Amelia Young’s Mutiny of the Bounty and Story of Pitcairn Island, 1790‐1894 (1894) in the context of US American perception of Pitcairn Island’s cultural identity. It envisions both Delano’s account of the island and the Californian Seventh-day Adventists’ missionary work, as described by Young, as examples of epistemic violence. The latter derives from imperial misrepresentations of the islanders as well as an imposition of US American cultural identity upon them. The violence committed against Pitcairn’s community is discussed in connection to Delano’s self-proclaimed approach of non-intervention and his depiction of the islanders as Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s ‘children of nature’, as well as to the direct involvement of the Adventists who converted the islanders. This article tests whether Delano’s and the Adventists’ approaches are mutually exclusive or whether they represent two different visions of the same imperialist project to constitute Pitcairn Islanders as the colonial ‘Other’.
