چکیده | ||
The figure of flâneur as a cosmopolitan wanderer in the existential quest for the self can find its transregional manifestation in African Americans as the ceaseless travelers who similarly have been endeavored to relocate self in the hostile polyethnic land of America. It is the self whose ongoing trans-regional mode of existence and its performative actions find appropriate incarnation in postmodern African American dramatic context. Being distinguished with their performative identity in negotiation with others and a quester for the displaced self, Wilsonian character can be the best manifestation of flâneur in contemporary time. Besides that, considering Wilson’s special focus on the determinative role of a marginal character called warrior spirit in being the authentic narrative of African American history, this study, applying Baudelaire’s definition and Benjamin’s theory of flâneur on Wilson’s The Piano Lesson (1990), aims at demonstrating how Boy Willie as one of the warrior spirits of Wilson can be the potential manifestation of African American flâneur. Through drawing on Deleuze and Guattari’s postmodern theoretical concept of rhizome in A Thousand Plateau (1980), it also seeks to explore how the significant identity transformation of Boy Willie to African American flâneur can be a proper conduit for Wilson’s postmodern recursive dramatic vision for remapping African American history. Moreover, it also shed light on how rhizomatic Wilsonian flâneur can regain Africanness in America while disclaiming any privileged thinking subject in the dichotomy of Black and White. | ||

خود سرگردان در جامعه چندملیتی امریکا: هویت ایلیاتی فلانور افریقایی امریکایی در "درس پیانو" اثر آگوست ویلسون | ||
چکیده [English] | ||
مهاجران آفریقایی آمریکایی بعنوان مسافران بی وقفه در پی بازیابی خود در جامعه ی وحشیانه و چند ملیتی آمریکا به مثابه شخصیت فلانور ست که خود سرگردانِ جهانی ست در پی یافتن خود. این همان خودی ست که صورت وجودی فرا منطقه ای اش و اعمال دراماتیکش کالبد مناسبی در بافت نمایشی پست مدرن آفریقایی آمریکایی یافته ست.شخصیتهای ویلسون به جهت برخورداری از هویت نمایشیِ در تقابل با غیر خود و بعنوان جوینده ای برای خودِ سرگردانشان میتوانند بهترین نمود فلانور عصر حاضر باشند. این مطالعه با بکارگیری تعاریف و نظریات فلانور از دیدگاه بودلر و بنجامین در صدد نشان دادن شخصیت بوی ویلی بعنوان فلانور آفریقایی آمریکایی در نمایشنامه ی "درس پیانو"(1990) اثر اگوست ویلسون ست. بعلاوه از منظر مفهوم پست مدرن رزیوم برگرفته از "هزار فلاتِ"(1980) دلوز و گتاری، این پژوهش بر آن ست تا نشان دهد چگونه دگرگونی هویتی این شخصیت به سمت فلانورِ آفریقایی آمریکایی میتواند بستر مناسبی برای دیدگاه مستقل دراماتیک و پست مدرن ویلسون به منظور بازنمایی صحیح تاریخ نگاری سیاه پوستان باشد. افزون بر این با درنظر گرفتن تمرکز ویژه ی ویلسون به نقش کلیدی شخصیت به حاشیه رانده شده بوی ویلی بعنوان روح جنگجو درارائه ی راویتی موثق از تاریخ آفریقایی آمریکایی ، این مطالعه نشان خواهد داد چگونه ماهیت چندگانه شخصیت نمایشنامه ویلسون بارزترین نمود گوناگونی ماهیت و دگرگونی مکانی _ زمانی شخصیت فلانور ست. | ||
