摘要
摘要本文认为,罗伯特·路易斯·史蒂文森(Robert Louis Stevenson)的《金银岛》(Treasure Island,1883)中对小船航行的描述表明,由于工业资本主义对蒸汽船的日益依赖,航海时代的亲属结构出现了潜在的危机。本文将一种更古老的“海上亲属关系”及其在“海洋亲属关系”中的延续理论化,重新评估了19世纪末和20世纪初航海小说之间的差距,并通过与海洋的持续联系和保持的航海遗产将两者联系起来。与损失的言论相反,它将金银岛与海洋的距离描述为突出了环境的相互联系,这可能使我们能够重新想象我们与海洋的关系,并为应对当前的气候危机提供关键方法。
“Near the sea”: Maritime kinship and oceanic kinship in Stevenson’s Treasure Island
ABSTRACT This essay argues that depictions of small craft sailing in Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island (1883) indicate an underlying crisis in the kinship structures of the age of sail as wrought by industrial capitalism’s rising reliance on steamships. Theorizing an older form of “maritime kinship” and its continuation in “oceanic kinship,” this essay re-evaluates the gap between late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century seafaring fiction and bridges the two through a continued connection to the sea and maintained sailing heritage. Countering a rhetoric of loss, it presents Treasure Island’s nearness to the sea as highlighting an environmental interconnection that might allow us to reimagine how we relate to oceans and provide key approaches to confronting the current climate crisis.
