There is an oft-touted thought, which has perhaps fallen into adage for its authorlessness, that women carry archives in their bodies. It seems a romantic or old-fashioned thought—that bodies can be ‘a witness, testament and document’ and so are sites of history-making (Schneider, 2019). It is a thought that has been swept aside by an epistemological framework that has come to dominate how it is we know. And so, as a challenge to this, an ‘act of love against the foreclosures of reason’ (Singh, 2018, p. 29), I went looking for archival bodies.

接近，与或中间

有一种经常被吹捧的想法，可能因其无作者而成为格言，即女性在体内携带档案。这似乎是一种浪漫或过时的想法——身体可以是“见证、遗嘱和文件”，历史创造场所也是如此（施耐德，2019）。这种思想已被认识论框架扫到一边，而这个认识论框架已经主导了我们的认识。因此，作为对此的挑战，“反对丧失理性的爱的行为”（Singh，2018 年，第 29 页），我去寻找档案机构。
