摘要

摘要：本文展示了阿达奥比·特里西亚·恩瓦巴尼的小说《我不来找你》在文学和大众领域与多种文本和话语的对话。它探讨了关于419的非洲文学叙事与通过非洲和散居国外的小型和非正式跨国生产和消费网络迁移的流行叙事之间的关系。本文分析了纳瓦巴尼小说在文学大众和大众之间进行谈判时所采取的文本策略，一方面关注小说与地方、大众叙事的纠缠，另一方面关注它所采取的文学性策略。其目的是特别描述小说与流行文本（如诺莱坞和加纳电影）中常见的习语和美学的交叉和改写，以及对419封欺诈电子邮件中采用的比喻和形式的有趣而辛酸的重新想象。

Email Scams, Nollywood Movies, and the New African Literary Novel: Adaobi Tricia Nwaubani's I Do Not Come to You by Chance in the Post-Global Age

ABSTRACT:This article demonstrates that Adaobi Tricia Nwaubani's novel I Do Not Come to You by Chance dialogues with a multiplicity of texts and discourses at literary and popular registers. It explores affiliations between African literary narratives about 419 and the popular narratives that migrate through minor and informal transnational networks of production and consumption in Africa and the diaspora. The article analyzes the textual strategies Nwaubani's novel adopts to negotiate between literary and popular publics, paying close attention, on the one hand, to the novel's entanglements with local, popular narratives and, on the other, to the strategies of literariness it takes up. The aim is to describe, in particular, the novel's intersections with and rewriting of the idioms and aesthetics so pronounced in popular texts, such as Nollywood and Ghanaian movies, as well as its playful and poignant reimagining of the tropes and forms adopted in 419 fraud emails.
