在成为领先的诗歌出版商之前,《Carcanet》是一本由希望连接牛津和剑桥的本科生创办的学生杂志。本文揭示了《Carcanet》杂志被遗忘的历史,特别关注女性和少数民族。在迈克尔·施密特 (Michael Schmidt) 于 1967 年底接管该杂志之前,《Carcanet》为来自印度和前殖民地的作家(包括阿迪尔·尤萨瓦拉 (Adil Jussawalla) 和爱德华·布拉斯韦特 (Edward Brathwaite))提供了发表作品的机会,然后再转向更主流的场所。《Carcanet》杂志可以被视为各种参与者之间斗争的场所:牛津和剑桥文学界之间、英国/欧洲和后殖民群体之间。本文利用被忽视的收藏中的大量档案工作以及口述历史采访,讲述了《Carcanet》杂志的另一段历史,作为战后英国更广泛的文学领域的案例研究。这个故事不太关注迈克尔·施密特,但没有削弱他将学生杂志转变为持久出版企业的成就。
Before it became a leading poetry publisher,Carcanetwas a student magazine set up by undergraduates who wanted to link Oxford and Cambridge. This article sheds light on the forgotten history ofCarcanetmagazine, focusing particularly on women and ethnic minorities. Prior to Michael Schmidt’s takeover of the magazine in late 1967,Carcanetoffered opportunities to writers from India and ex-colonies (including Adil Jussawalla and Edward Brathwaite) to publish their work, before moving on to more mainstream venues.Carcanetmagazine can be seen as a site of struggle between various players: between the Oxford and Cambridge literary sets, and between British/European and postcolonial groups. Drawing on extensive archival work in neglected collections, as well as oral history interviews, this article tells an alternative history ofCarcanetmagazine as a case study for the larger literary field of post-war Britain. The story is less focused on Michael Schmidt, without diminishing his accomplishment in transforming a student magazine into an enduring publishing enterprise.
