Alternative Subjectivity in the Post-Nation-State Era: Emerging Possibilities within Australian Literature

在现代民族国家的形成过程中，民族文学作为建构民族认同和民族根基神话的手段发挥着重要作用。在澳大利亚，从19世纪到20世纪中叶，关于“Terra Nulius”和平解决的叙述被制作和传播。20世纪90年代，澳大利亚原住民与非原住民之间的和解问题成为一个重要的社会问题，探索后民族国家时代主体性形成的文学应运而生。这项研究考察了土著和非土著作家的作品，并探索了土著人民如何突出他们的历史意识来构建他们的主体性，并允许非土著澳大利亚人重新考虑他们的归属感和国家认同感。它确定了当代澳大利亚文学如何在“后民族文学”中寻找新的视野，同时试图在这个后民族国家时代构建另一种主体性。

In the formation of the modern nation-state, national literature functions as a means to construct national identity and myths of national foundation. In Australia, from the 19th to the mid 20th century, narratives of the peaceful settlement of the "Terra Nulius" were produced and circulated. In the 1990s, the issue of reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians became a significant social issue and literature exploring the formation of subjectivity in the "post-nation-state era" appeared. This study examined works by both Indigenous and non-Indigenous writers and explored how Indigenous people foreground their historical awareness to construct their subjectivity and allow non-Indigenous Australians to reconsider their sense of belonging and national identity. It identified how contemporary Australian literature seeks out a new horizon in "post-national literature" while attempting to construct an alternative subjectivity within this post-nation-state era.
