Revising Alfred, Lord Tennyson: A Closer Look at Two Color Line Stories "The Wife of His Youth" and "Cecily's Dream" by Charles W. Chesnutt
Popis výsledku v původním jazyce
This article explores an African American writer's revision of a famous English poet Tennyson whose versified medieval portrait of the Arthurian legend appears in Idylls of the King as well as other poems. The Wife of His Youth and Other Stories of the Color Line (1899), a story collection by African American author Charles Chesnutt (1858-1932), addresses parameters contextualized in the aftermath of slavery such as esthetic notions of beauty tied to whiteness and intra-racial inequality. The final failure of two protagonists, a man and a woman, to fulfill their romantic aspirations of whiteness connects the collection's titular story to "Cecily's Dream." In addition to the color-line theme, however, Chesnutt is motivated to refer to the poetry of Alfred, Lord Tennyson (1809-1892), including moments in which chivalric codes of honor, whiteness and flawed courtly love are idealized. Tennyson's parabolic poems provide Chesnutt's intertextual scheme to engage the implied reader by renewing, transforming and also subverting the motif of courtly love in these Arthurian idylls.
