摘要

摘要本文探讨了亚历山德拉·伍德的《人的耳朵》(2015)中的好客和创伤主题,重点探讨了剧中与他人相遇的模式。露西是一名20多岁的女性,当她试图接受母亲因一次未指明的炸弹袭击而死亡时,她发现她疏远的哥哥杰森自杀了。然而,与此同时,一个自称是她哥哥的男人不断出现在她的门口,通过这些遭遇,我们可以追溯到热情好客的可能性和局限性。通过参考Emmanuel Levinas、Jacques Derrida和Sara Ahmed关于家庭和好客的理论,本文认为,在《人的耳朵》中,对与他者关系的重新定义被视为一种接受创伤的手段,因为露西欢迎陌生人的过程与她从创伤中治愈的过程有关。

“You Don’t Know Who This Man Is”: Hospitality and Trauma in Alexandra Wood’s The Human Ear
Abstract This paper explores the themes of hospitality and trauma in Alexandra Wood’s The Human Ear (2015) by focusing on the modes of encounter with the Other in the play. As Lucy, a woman in her twenties, tries to come to terms with the death of her mother as a result of an unspecified bomb attack, she finds out that her estranged brother, Jason, killed himself. In the meantime, however, a man who claims to be her brother keeps turning up at her door, and through these encounters we can trace the possibilities and limits of hospitality. By referring to the theories of Emmanuel Levinas, Jacques Derrida, and Sara Ahmed on home and hospitality, this paper argues that in The Human Ear, the redefinition of the relationship with the Other is represented as a means to come to terms with trauma as Lucy’s process of welcoming the stranger is connected to her process of healing from trauma.
