摘要

摘要：本文从两个新兴的研究领域来考察克劳德·麦凯的《马赛罗曼史》：“非洲主义”和“边缘热点”人类学理论。这表明麦凯的小说通过强调种族的“黑人”，对哈莱姆文艺复兴时期流散运动的积极形象进行了批判“作为一个系统，在一个扩展的时间和空间框架中，拒绝有色人种享受现代性和主权权利的好处。为了探索这一假设，文章转向了新的人类学工作，将边缘热点作为一个持续的、未解决的过渡点，并将散居者的情感解读为麦凯作品中的一种负面情感，这种情感将一个无名氏置于对仪式和表演风格化施加了难以控制的压力，并使其无法作为培养主权条件的形式。

Afropessimism, Liminal Hotspots, and Claude McKay's Aesthetic of Sovereign Rejection in Romance in Marseille

Abstract:This article considers Claude McKay's Romance in Marseille through two emerging fields of study: "Afropessimism" and anthropological theories of the "liminal hotspot." It suggests that McKay's novel functions as a critique of positive Harlem Renaissance images of diasporic movement by highlighting how racial "Blackness" functions as a system for rejecting people of color from the benefits of modernity and sovereign rights-bearing status in an expanded temporal and spatial frame. To explore this hypothesis, the article turns to new anthropological work on the liminal hotspot as a site of sustained, unresolved transition, reading the affectivity of diaspora as a negative one in McKay's work that places an unsustainable pressure on ritual and performative stylizations and renders them untenable as forms for cultivating a sovereign condition.

期刊介绍： A respected forum since 1962 for peer-reviewed work in English literary studies, English Language Notes - ELN - has undergone an extensive makeover as a semiannual journal devoted exclusively to special topics in all fields of literary and cultural studies. ELN is dedicated to interdisciplinary and collaborative work among literary scholarship and fields as disparate as theology, fine arts, history, geography, philosophy, and science. The new journal provides a unique forum for cutting-edge debate and exchange among university-affiliated and independent scholars, artists of all kinds, and academic as well as cultural institutions. As our diverse group of contributors demonstrates, ELN reaches across national and international boundaries.
