摘要
摘要:19世纪的《纽约纪事报》(New York Ledger)是当时的主要新闻报纸,读者经常会看到爱丽丝·卡里(Alice Cary)的田园文学作品,这是对城市景观的隐喻性浪漫主义逃避。但凯里的作品不仅仅是给读者带来了田园般的慰藉。她的《分类帐》专栏也抵制男权对田园和农村的审美化。通过田园场景,卡里详细描述了自然和女性如何谴责社会对美丽和年轻的标准。换句话说,凯里的田园生活是反父权的。她的纯洁和美丽不是因为她年轻和年轻,而是因为她充满了经验和知识,她把这些特征与女性的美联系在一起。最终,加里在《账簿》中的田园写作将城市之外的读者带入田园环境,彻底拒绝了父权制形式的浪漫主义。
Pastoral Escapes from the City: Alice Cary's Resistance to Patriarchal Romanticism in the New York Ledger
Abstract:Nineteenth-century readers of the New York Ledger, the leading story paper of the time, regularly encountered Alice Cary's pastoral writing as metaphorical Romantic escapes from the cityscape. But Cary's writing did more than deliver pastoral reprieves to readers. Her Ledger columns also resist the patriarchal aestheticization of the pastoral and the rural. Via pastoral settings, Cary details how both nature and women denounce social standards of beauty and youth. In other words, the pastoral for Cary is anti-patriarchal. It is pure and beautiful not because it is young and youthful but because it is full of experience and knowledge, traits that she associates with feminine beauty. Ultimately, Cary's pastoral writing in the Ledger delivers readers outside of the city into a pastoral setting that definitively rejects patriarchal forms of Romanticism.
