摘要
摘要:尽管莫桑比克作家的作品经常被英语学院所忽视,部分原因是其使用的是半边缘殖民地语言,并且缺乏翻译,但对20世纪80年代莫桑比克文本的研究仍然可以为新自由主义世界文化的文学坐标以及边缘作家调解经济转型时刻的更一般策略提供有价值的见解。本文试图通过对Mia Couto, Suleiman Cassamo和Ungulani Ba Ka Khosa的一系列文本的比较阅读来弥补这种脱节。
Mozambican Literature, Neoliberalism, and the Long 1980s
Abstract:Although the work of Mozambican authors has routinely been overlooked within the Anglophone academy, due in part to its use of a semiperipheral colonial language and a lack of availability in translation, the study of Mozambican texts from the period of the long 1980s can nevertheless offer valuable insight into both the literary coordinates of neoliberal world-culture as well as the more general strategies used by peripheral writers to mediate moments of economic transition. This essay seeks to remedy this disconnect through a series of comparative readings of texts by Mia Couto, Suleiman Cassamo, and Ungulani Ba Ka Khosa.
