摘要

在《代表澳大利亚土著音乐和舞蹈1930-1970》一书中,阿曼达·哈里斯(Amanda Harris)讲述了澳大利亚东南部长达40年的土著音乐和舞蹈表演历史,这段历史被定义为澳大利亚同化时代。在这个时代,在“保护”和“福利”的幌子下,政府制定了严厉的政策,强行将土著人同化为主流人口。在阅读这本书时,令人惊讶的是,这些故事很少为人所知,尤其是考虑到哈里斯揭示的这些故事对当今澳大利亚艺术音乐界的重大影响。因此,这本书对澳大利亚历史的“真相”做出了重要贡献,同时也表明,尽管在这个时代有严厉的政策,包括禁止使用土著语言和限制仪式的表演,土著人民仍然积极地推动他们自己的活动,并主张他们自己的文化独特的音乐和舞蹈表演模式。这本书的作者之一Yorta Yorta和Dja Dja Warrung文化领袖、视觉和表演艺术家、策展人和歌剧演唱家Tiriki Onus恰当地描述了这种对重大困难的适应能力,称之为“隐藏在视线之中”,指的是土著居民通过在公共场所(他们唯一被允许的地方)继续实践和表演他们的文化的方式。

Amanda Harris. Representing Australian Aboriginal Music and Dance, 1930–1970
In Representing Australian Aboriginal Music and Dance 1930–1970, Amanda Harris sets out a history of Aboriginal music and dance performances in south-east Australia during the four-decade-long period defined as the Australian assimilation era. During this era, and pushing its boundaries, harsh government policies under the guise of ‘protection’ and ‘welfare’ were designed forcibly to assimilate Aboriginal people into the mainstream population. It is striking while reading this book how few of these stories are widely known, particularly given the heavy influence that Harris uncovers it having on the Australian art music scene of today. As such, the book makes an important contribution to the ‘truth telling’ of Australian history while also showing that—despite the severe policies during this era, including the banning of speaking in Indigenous languages and restricting the performance of ceremony—Aboriginal people have remained active agents in driving their own engagements and asserting their own culturally distinct modes of music and dance performance. This resilience against significant odds has been aptly described by one of the book’s contributors, Yorta Yorta and Dja Dja Warrung cultural leader, visual and performance artist, curator and opera singer Tiriki Onus, as ‘hiding in plain sight,’ referring to the ways in which Aboriginal people ensured the continued practice and performance of their culture by doing so in public, the only place they were allowed to…

期刊介绍: Science in Context is an international journal edited at The Cohn Institute for the History and Philosophy of Science and Ideas, Tel Aviv University, with the support of the Van Leer Jerusalem Institute. It is devoted to the study of the sciences from the points of view of comparative epistemology and historical sociology of scientific knowledge. The journal is committed to an interdisciplinary approach to the study of science and its cultural development - it does not segregate considerations drawn from history, philosophy and sociology. Controversies within scientific knowledge and debates about methodology are presented in their contexts.
