从“怪异”理论看拜伦的《唐璜》

Reading Byron' s Don Juan from the Perspective of Queer Theory

“怪异”理论主张消除异性恋和同性恋、男性和女性以及所谓的“女性气质”与“男性气质”的传统定义上性身份的二项对立,强调在种族的历史背景下生理性别和社会性别的不稳定性,男女两性界限的模糊以及易装和易性等超性别的重要性。“怪异”理论的基本主张在拜伦的代表作《唐璜》中有充分的体现,这主要表现在对传统定义上的生理性别、社会性别和性欲的颠覆和诗人的易装政治。

Queer theory advocates eliminating the traditional binary oppositions of the heterosexual/homosexual, the male/ female and the so-called masculine/feminine, and emphasizes the uncertainty of biological sex and social gender in a certain context, the vague boundary between man and woman, cross-dressing, and change of sex. These basic ＂queer＂ principles can be found expression in Don Juan＇ s indication of the destruction of the traditional definitions of sex, gender and sexuality, and the poet＇ s politics of cross-dressing.
