这篇文章考虑了一些当代英国诗人的工作,他们试图阐明痴呆症所带来的一些经验。诗歌作为一种描绘痴呆症所涉及的自我错位和重塑的手段的独特潜力大多被忽视了。批判性老年学提供的见解是本文的核心。这种观点要求对痴呆症的社会结构进行批判性思考。特别是诗人,如Vuyelwa卡林,瓦莱丽法律和乔Shapcott所带来的挑战,进行检查。这些诗人提供的复杂的诗歌表达承认痴呆症的病理性下降,同时庆祝他们的主题的个性和生活。参考当代诗人和批判性老年学的作品来考虑痴呆症是我们加深对这种疾病的理解并使患有这种疾病的人人性化的一种方式。
This article considers the work of a number of contemporary British poets who have attempted to articulate some of the experiences that dementia entails. The unique potential of poetry as a means of portraying the dislocations and reinventions of self that dementia involves has been mostly overlooked. The insights offered by critical gerontology are central to this article. This perspective calls for critical thought about the ways in which dementia has been socially constructed. The challenges posed by poets such as Vuyelwa Carlin, Valerie Laws and Jo Shapcott in particular, are examined. The complex poetic representations offered by these poets acknowledge the pathological declines of dementia and simultaneously celebrate the individuality and life of their subjects. Considering dementia with reference to the work of contemporary poets and critical gerontology is one way in which we can deepen our understanding of what this illness involves and humanise those who suffer from it.
