中文摘要
立足于跨国民族未来主义的批评概念,并通过后殖民和交叉的视角,本文认为,当代散居东亚和东南亚的投机小说(ESEA SF)作为拆除种族压迫系统和设想社会公正的未来的实践。这将通过2010年代出版的四位作家的作品来检验,即R. F。邝氏的《罂粟战争》三部曲、氖杨的《张量二元论》、维克托费尔南多·R.奥坎波的《无限图书馆和其他故事》,以及阿莱特·德·博达德的《徐亚宇宙》。该项目将采用混合方法研究,探讨这些作者如何使用体裁手段来消除压迫性结构并重新想象社会政治变革,以及他们在将英语SF重塑为多元和后殖民文学社区方面的意义。我将产生一个最终的论文,在与同行研究人员对话播客,和一个开放访问的档案记录ESEA SF作品。
英文摘要
Anchored in the critical concept of transnational ethnofuturisms and informed by postcolonial and intersectional perspectives, this thesis argues that contemporary diasporic East and Southeast Asian speculative fiction (ESEA SF) acts as praxis for dismantling systems of racial oppression and envisioning socially just futures. This will be examined via the works of four writers published in the 2010s-namely, R.F. Kuang's The Poppy War trilogy, Neon Yang's Tensorate duology, Victor Fernando R. Ocampo's The Infinite Library and Other Stories, and Aliette de Bodard's Xuya Universe novelettes. Using mixed methods research, the project will explore how these authors use genre devices to refract oppressivestructures and reimagine socio-political change, and their significance in reshaping Anglophone SF into a plural and postcolonial literary community. I will produce a final thesis, a podcast in conversation with peer researchers, and an open-access archive documenting ESEA SF works.
