Birth of Postmodernism in American Literature and Cultures of the 1950s

该项目分析了从二战开始到20世纪50年代末的美国文化和文学，重点关注后现代题材的构建方式。本项目取得的成果如下：1.海明威和福克纳在20世纪50年代的《迷失的一代》在世界范围内的文学声誉是建立在麦卡锡主义时代，与那个时代的文化政治密切相关的。我对这一主题的研究将发表在一本名为《海明威与古巴》(Kent State U P，2003)和《福肯纳》(Faulkener)杂志(2003)的选集中。我还在国际海明威会议(意大利，2002年)上阅读了我的论文。间谍文化与后现代主义我在国家战略研究所的研究表明，OSS和CIA在后现代文化的形成中发挥了开创性的作用。这项研究的结果是在我的文章《休克治疗时代的文学和文化》3.精神病理学和后世主题在我的文章《疯狂》中，我认为精神病理学是冷战时代的文化和政治范式。这篇文章的范围仅限于分析法西斯主义者和精神变态罪犯的心理学家罗伯特·朗德纳的文字。从这一角度对主要作者进行研究的文章也在不断涌现。冷战和“9·11”美国叙事为美国研究提供了一个全新的视角和动机。从这个角度，我分析了20世纪40年代末的骑兵电影和战斗电影，重点是国家对西方和珍珠港的记忆是如何影响冷战军国主义的。我将在美国研究协会的会议(2003年5月)上阅读我关于这一主题的论文。

This project analyzes the U.S. cultures and literature from the beginning fo WWII to the late 1950s, focusing on the ways in which Postmodern Subject is cunsturcted. Results of this project is as follows.1. The 1950s of the Lost Generation Worldwide liteary reputations of Hemingway and Faulkner were constructed amidst McCarthyist era in close relation with the cultural politics of the era. My studies on this topic will appear in an anthology titled Hemingway and Cuba (Kent State U P, 2003) and Faulkener magazine (2003). I also read my paper at International Hemingway Conference (Italy, 2002).2. Culture of Espionage and Postmodernism My research at the National Arichive made clear that OSS and CIA had seminal role in the formation of Postmodern cultures. The result of this research is in my article "Literature and Cultures of the Age of Shock Treatment,"3. Psychopathology and Postmern Subject In my article "Craziology," I argued that psychopathology was the cultural and polotical paradigm of the Cold War era. The scope of this article is limited to the worts of Robert Londner, a psychologist who analyzed fascists as well as psychopathic delinquents. Artciles on major authors from this perspective are forthcoming.4. Cold War and American Narrative "September 11th" gave American studies a whole new scope and motives. From this perspective, I analyzed cavalry films and combat films of the late 1940s, focusing on the ways in which national memories of the West and Pearl Harbor informed Cold War militarism. I will read my paper on this subject at the conference of the American Studies Association (May 2003).
