摘要
本文报告了2015年4月至2016年2月期间,对塞浦路斯共和国LGBT人群在线表现的人工监测。这篇文章的背景是,希族塞人网路上针对LGBT人士的“仇恨言论”,以及更普遍的针对非异性恋者的言论。采用福柯式的立场来看待-à-vis性的社会和话语建构,我们首先概述了社会历史背景(Fairclough 1989, 2003),重点关注塞浦路斯共和国的LGBT权利和建构性行为的民族主义项目。然后,我们研究了话语歧视实践的不同层次,提供了在这种环境中通常发现的涉及该主题的“仇恨言论”类型的快照。重点是识别用于构建LGBT身份的框架,以及他们的感知。我们在标题中使用了后现代主义者,尤其是巴特勒(2009:iii)定义的“主体”一词:主体是指“社会产生的‘代理人’和‘审议者’,他们的代理和思想是通过先于‘我’的语言而成为可能的。”在这个意义上,‘我’是通过权力产生的(....)”。本文关注的是社会在研究背景下对LGBT群体的定义。因此,我们讨论了在强制性和霸权性的异性恋和异性恋规范中构建性的方式。我们使用语料库语言工具分析我们的数据,即关注LGBT社区的评论(Baker et al. 2008;Brindle 2016)以及通过对已识别框架的定性检查。我们的分析证实了共和国的民族主义和强制性霸权异性规范之间的界面,以及东正教及其信仰的影响(Kamenou 2011a, 2011b, 2016)。
“Go to hell fucking faggots, may you die!” framing the LGBT subject in online comments
Abstract This paper reports on a manual monitoring of online representations of LGBT persons in the Republic of Cyprus for the period April 2015–February 2016. The article contextualizes the prevalence of “hate speech” in online Greek Cypriot comments against LGBT individuals, and, more generally, against non-heterosexuals. Adopting a Foucauldian position vis-à-vis the social and discursive construction of sexuality, we outline, first, the socio-historical context (Fairclough 1989, 2003) with a focus on LGBT rights in the Republic of Cyprus and the nationalistic project construing sexualities. We then examine the different levels of discursive discrimination practices, providing a snapshot of the types of “hate speech” referring to this topic typically found in such an environment. The focus is on identification of the frames used to construct LGBT identities, and their perception. We use in our title the word subject as defined by post-modernists and by Butler in particular (2009 : iii): subject refers to “a socially produced ‘agent’ and ‘deliberator’ whose agency and thought is made possible by a language that precedes that ‘I’. In this sense the ‘I’ is produced through power (….)”. This paper focuses on the socially produced definition of the LGBT community in the context under study. We thus address the way in which sexuality is constructed within a compulsory and hegemonic heterosexuality and heteronormativity. We analyze our data i.e. comments focused on the LGBT community, with corpus linguistic tools (Baker et al. 2008; Brindle 2016) as well as through a qualitative examination of the identified frames. Our analysis confirms an interface between nationalism and compulsory hegemonic heteronormativity in the Republic as well as the influence of the Orthodox Church and its beliefs (Kamenou 2011a, 2011b, 2016).
