沉默与话语——重读《曼斯菲尔德庄园》

Silence and Speech——Rereading Mansfield Park after Said

摘要: 从赛义德指出的经典文学与帝国主义意识形态的共谋关系出发,针对其《曼斯菲尔德庄园》第21章中沉默的解读进行反驳,结论是,这个沉默并非因众人对殖民做法的尴尬而产生,也不表示奴隶贸易是个禁忌话题,因此,不能将其解释为奥斯丁对奴隶贸易的默许。对奴隶贸易或奴隶制,奥斯丁不是保持沉默,而是表达了改良主义的立场。

Abstract: Starting with the complicity between classic works and imperialistic ideology as pointed out by Said, the thesis refutes his view about the famous "silence" in Mansfield Park. The silence is open to another understanding: it is not caused by the characters- embarrassment when Fanny puts forward the issue of slavery, nor is it a forbidden topic, thus the attitude of Austen towards slavery is not that of taciturn agreement. She does not remain silent about the issue: she expresses her ameliorationist views.
