摘要

这篇文章源于对李的丑陋和她在熟人之间的过度交谈的批判性审视,从历史的角度审视了她作为保姆、评论对象和评论家的一系列肖像,提出声音和面孔的交织可以有助于抵制艺术历史学家在肖像画中对性别和性的理解所基于的看到和知道的省略。作为一名艺术评论家,李对肖像画持矛盾的立场。她对新心理学的熟悉提供了一种反应,通过这种反应,共鸣可以将这一类型的感官边界转移到其相似性之外。通过李在艺术写作和小说中对肖像声音的质疑,这篇文章探讨了一系列奇怪的尝试,这些尝试试图挑战识别、定义或消费肖像主题的外观权威。由于19世纪末,谈话风格的出现也被视为对酷儿自我的可听表达,在性学家对“女性倒置”和“会说话的女人”的主流话语进行固定化的时候,李及其谈话的当代表现可能被解读为酷儿命题。

Voicing the Queer Self: Listening to Portraits with Vernon Lee

Voicing the Queer Self: Listening to Portraits with Vernon Lee

Originating in a critical examination of Vernon Lee's perceived ugliness and her excessive talking among her acquaintances, this essay situates historically a series of portraits in which she features as a sitter, subject of comment and commentator, to suggest that the interweaving of voices and faces can be useful to resist the elision of seeing and knowing on which art historians often base their understanding of gender and sexuality in portraiture. As an art critic, Lee maintained an ambivalent position with regard to portraits. Her familiarity with the new psychology informed a response whereby resonance could shift the sensorial boundaries of the genre beyond its function as likeness. By engaging with Lee's interrogation of the voice of portraits, both in art writing and fiction, the essay examines a series of queer attempts to challenge the authority of the look to identify, define or consume the subject of portraiture. As the late nineteenth century also saw the emergence of talking styles as audible articulations of the queer self, contemporary representations of Lee and her loquacity may be read as queer propositions at a time when dominant discourses around ‘female inversion’ and the ‘speaking woman’ were being fixed by sexologists.
