摘要
摘要:本文是Edward Kamau Brathwaite 1975年发表的论文《时空中的加勒比人》(Caribbean Man in Space and Time)的专题部分,简要追溯了Brathwaite论文的传播历史,然后重点关注其中的两条主要论点,探讨它们对当前加勒比研究实践和可能性的意义。作者以三个当代数字项目为例,详细阐述了数字平台和技术作为(用Brathwaite的话说)“变革推动者”的潜在优势和局限性,同时论证了“数字如何让我们以不同的方式思考加勒比海”。
Abstract:This essay is part of a special section on Edward Kamau Brathwaite’s 1975 essay “Caribbean Man in Space and Time” (reprinted in the issue), briefly tracing the dis- semination history of Brathwaite’s essay, then focusing on two main lines of argument in it to explore their significance for current practices and possibilities in Caribbean studies. Using three contemporary digital projects as examples, the author elaborates on the potential affordances and limitations of digital platforms and technologies as (in Brathwaite’s terms) “agents of change,” while arguing the case for “how the digital allows us to think the Caribbean differently.”
