启蒙理性的黑色絮语——从《印度之行》论后殖民知识分子的民族—国家意识

The Voicing of the Enlightenment Reason by the Black -An Analysis of the Nation-state Consciousness of Post-colonial Intellectuals in A Passage to India

本文重点分析《印度之行》中阿齐兹民族—国家意识的形成,阐明启蒙理性不仅是推动欧洲现代性的动力,也是后殖民话语中后殖民知识分子反抗殖民霸权、重写殖民遭遇中的主奴关系、形成民族—国家意识的催化剂。应该指出的是,民族—国家理念是后殖民特定历史阶段的产物,其本身的历史性说明了后殖民话语的历史性和异质性。

The focus of this analysis is on the maturation of Azizs nationstate consciousness in A Passage to India to illustrate that not only is the Enlightenment reason the impetus of European modernity but also the catalyzer for postcolonial intellectuals to resist colonialist hegemony, rewrite the Hegelian master and slave relationship in colonization and recast their nationstate consciousness. It should be noted that the idea of nationstate is the product of particular historical stage and its historicity indicates the historicity and heterogeneity of postcolonial discourse.
