摘要

这篇文章回顾了西尔维娅·温特1971年的文章《小说与历史，情节与种植园》，探讨了一个困境:供应的历史不仅是一种资源，也是西印度奴隶制期间和之后财产关系的开端。在这种情况下，情节成为了一个如何通过交流成为自由主体的指导空间。这篇文章勾勒出了故事中关于剥夺、圈地和争议的历史。最后，它提供了另一个术语，虹吸，作为西印度群岛解放和后殖民重叠的条件。

Siphon, or What Was the Plot? Revisiting Sylvia Wynter’s “Novel and History, Plot and Plantation”

This essay revisits Sylvia Wynter’s 1971 essay “Novel and History, Plot and Plantation” in relation to a quandary: the history of provision grounds not only as a resource but also as an initiation into property relations during and after West Indian slavery. In this light, the plot becomes a space of instruction in how to become a free subject through exchange. The essay draws out the plot’s histories of dispossession, enclosure, and dispute. Ultimately, it offers another term, siphon, as the condition of the overlapping conjunctures of West Indian emancipation and the postcolonial.
