摘要

在这篇文章中，我将拉美少女时代的话语和模糊性结合起来，在《阿瓦洛的埃琳娜》第一季的三个关键章节中，对迪士尼少年的具体和模糊的拉丁性进行了探讨。这种类型的交叉分析很少在迪士尼学术中发现，尽管现有的关于迪士尼产生的文化生产的工作相对丰富。在本文中，通过分析迪斯尼动画中的拉丁裔少女时代(Harris 2004)所呈现的模糊性(Joseph 2018)和矛盾性的明确结构(Valdivia 2020)，我提供了一种交叉的方法来研究迪斯尼青少年动画内容和当代流行文化中的拉丁裔少女时代。我认为，《阿瓦洛的埃琳娜》是迪士尼对拉美裔和积极向上的少女时代的建构所做出的公开和不公开的贡献的结果。其结果是在一个叙事系列中，在特殊性和模糊性之间产生波动和灵活的导航。

Disney’s Specific and Ambiguous Princess

Bringing together discourses of Latina girlhood and ambiguity, in this article I interrogate Disney Junior’s specific and ambiguous Latinidad in three key episodes from the first season of Elena of Avalor. This type of intersectional analysis is seldom found in Disney scholarship, despite the relative abundance of existing work on Disney-generated cultural production. By analyzing the ambiguity (Joseph 2018) and unambivalent structure of ambivalence (Valdivia 2020) present in Disney’s deployment of animated Latina can-do girlhood (Harris 2004), in this article, I provide an intersectional approach to the study of Disney Junior animated content and Latina girlhood in contemporary popular culture. I argue that Elena of Avalor is the result of Disney’s avowed and disavowed dedication to the construction of Latinidad and can-do girlhood. The result of this is a fluctuation and flexible navigation between specificity and ambiguity within one narrative franchise.
