摘要

查里克利亚·马尔塔拉斯(Chariklia Martalas)的《吃约翰·沃斯特》(Eating John Vorster)揭示了迪米特里·查芬达斯(Dimitri Tsafendas)暗杀“种族隔离的建筑师”亨德里克·维沃尔德(Hendrik Verwoerd)的故事。作为一种社会责任，作者将种族隔离的代际创伤呈现给跨国读者群体。本文基于对Martalas的采访，认为她对但丁《地狱》的解读改写了一段创伤性的南非记忆，并将读者转变为负责任的见证者和信使。马尔塔拉斯与但丁建立了一种理想的友谊，同时有力地重新激活和改写了但丁生动的形象，揭开了当代悲剧的面纱。她的创造性文本关注读者的意识，并质疑语言、价值观和行为之间的相互联系。

Dimitri Tsafendas Meets Dante, Friend and Witness of Our Time

Chariklia Martalas's “Eating John Vorster" brings to light the assassination of Hendrik Verwoerd, “the architect of Apartheid,” by Dimitri Tsafendas. As an act of social responsibility, the author presents the intergenerational trauma of Apartheid to a transnational community of readers. This article, drawing on an interview with Martalas, argues that her reading of Dante’s Inferno rewrites a traumatic South African memory as well as transforms the reader into a responsible witness and messenger. Martalas establishes an ideal friendship with Dante and, while powerfully reactivating and rewriting his vivid imagery, unveils a contemporary tragedy. Her creative text addresses the reader’s consciousness and questions the interconnection among language, values, and actions.

期刊介绍： debate in Italy, especially for those scholars working in the field of Indo-European Historical Linguistics and contemporary Theoretical Linguistics. Today, after 50 years of life, Studi e Saggi Linguistici has a firm position in this field, but it also gained a larger international profile, including well-known foreign scholars as members of its Scientific Committee, and fostering the publication of English-written papers. The Editors always aim at publishing original and innovative papers, whose quality and exactness are guaranteed by the prestigious Scientific Committee, and by the anonymous peer-review process. Although a certain preference is accorded to both historical and general Linguistics, in line with the tradition, the Journal welcomes scientific contributions concerning any linguistic field, with no preference or prejudice for particular methodological approaches and theoretical paradigms.
