摘　　要：作为后灵魂叙事的代表人物之一,科尔森·怀特黑德坚持用创作革新来挑战自我,在深挖非裔叙事的民族文化之根的同时,主张摆脱民权运动以来形成的叙事规约,用后灵魂时代的编史元小说来表征新的时代风貌。他的近作《地下铁道》通过对科拉逃亡历程中的语象和声景叙事来表征新媒体时代的生命政治,将历史与现实融为一体,在虚构和真实之间建构文本化的生命;将资本帝国的剥削巨网置于全球化的语境之下,在利用与反利用的斗争中批判经济化的生命;让种族歧视的斑斑劣迹与"黑命贵运动"和特朗普主义互文,在控制与反控制中反思种族化的生命。As a pioneer of post-soul narratives,Colson Whitehead seeks to represent epochal ethos with his post-soul metafictions by exploring the deep roots of Afro-American culture and eschewing narrative injunctions since the Civil Rights Movement.The Underground Railroad,his new novel in 2016,reveals the biopolitics in neo-media era through the ekphrasis and soundscape in Cora’s narration.The novel first shows a textualized life combined with historicity and modernity,fact and fiction;critiques an economized life inured to capitalization and anti-capitalization in the global exploitative web of capital;and scrutinizes the racialized life enmeshed in control and anti-control against the backdrop of Black Lives Matter and Trumpism.
