摘要

本文重点关注南非作家撰写的新冠肺炎生活叙事,他们讲述了他们的磨难和“新常态”,试图通过他们与主流媒体不同的日常经历来理解大流行的影响。通过对三人个人叙述的仔细阅读和文本分析,我们讨论了他们如何重建南非的第一次封锁,并通过面对近期和遥远的过去、日常生存行为、私人生活和想象中的未来来评估形势。文章还考虑了叙述者如何将自己想象成脆弱的主体,因此独特地捕捉到了封锁的强烈情绪,以及它如何导致了对生活写作的新兴趣。2019冠状病毒病(covid -19)的流行病学研究表明,瑞典-南非荷兰语的外来语是“新常态”,“新常态”是“新常态”,“新常态”是“新常态”,“新常态”是“新常态”,“新常态”是“新常态”。一般情况下,一般人的叙述都是像人一样的叙述,一般人的叙述都是像人一样的叙述,一般人的叙述都是像人一样的叙述,一般人的叙述都是像人一样的叙述,一般人的叙述都是像人一样的叙述,一般人的叙述都是像人一样的叙述,一般人的叙述都是像人一样的叙述。作者在书中似乎有一种感觉,作者把自己看成是一个人,一个人的眼睛,一个人的眼睛,一个人的眼睛,一个人的眼睛,一个人的眼睛,一个人的眼睛,一个人的眼睛,一个人的眼睛,一个人的眼睛,一个人的眼睛,一个人的眼睛。

Life Writing During a Pandemic: Making Sense of the “New Normal” in Lockdown Extended: Corona Chronicles (2020)
This article focuses on the bourgeoning Covid-19 life narratives written by South African authors, who narrate their ordeals and the “new normal” in a bid to make sense of the impact of the pandemic through the lens of their everyday experiences that are different to those mediatised in mainstream media. Through a close reading and textual analysis of three personal narratives, we discuss how they reconstruct the first lockdown in South Africa, and take stock of the situation by confronting an immediate and distant past, daily acts of survival, private lives and imagined futures. The article also considers how the narrators envision themselves as vulnerable subjects, hence uniquely capturing the intense mood of the lockdown and how it led to a renewed interest in life writing. Opsomming Hierdie artikel fokus op die florerende Covid-19-lewensvertellings deur Suid-Afrikaanse outeurs waarin hulle hul beproewinge en die “nuwe normaal” weergee in 'n poging om sin te maak van die uitwerking van die pandemie, deur die lens van hulle alledaagse ervarings wat verskil van die ervarings wat in die hoofstroommedia uitgebeeld word. Na die noukeurige lees en tekstuele ontleding van drie persoonlike narratiewe, bespreek ons hoe hierdie outeurs die eerste inperkingstyd in Suid-Afrika gerekonstrueer het, die situasie krities in oënskou geneem het deur die onmiddellike en verre verlede, daaglikse oorlewingsaksies, privaat lewens en verbeelde toekoms gekonfronteer het. Die artikel neem ook die feit in ag dat die vertellers hulleself as weerlose persone sien, en vang gevolglik op ’n unieke wyse die intense gemoedstemming van die grendeltyd, en hoe dit tot hernieude belangstelling in die skryf oor die lewe gelei het, vas.
