Disability, Victorian Biopolitics and Oscar Wilde's Dorian Gray
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture Pub Date : 2018-12-15 , DOI: 10.7771/1481-4374.3410
Hiu Wai Wong

In her article “Disability, Victorian Biopolitics and Oscar Wilde's Dorian Gray,” Hiu Wai Wong discusses The Picture of Dorian Gray as Oscar Wilde’s life writing of the androgynous beauty. Extending his praise of Lord Alfred Douglas in De Profundis, Wilde’s descriptions of Dorian as the androgyne can be read as the demonstration of Michel Foucault’s techniques of the self. She argues that the androgynous beauty can be a strategy of bodily practice that overthrows the Victorian biopolitics which enforces a rigid gender role. Moreover, she explores the notion of camp and Judith Butler’s theory of performance to explain the strategy of bodily practice demonstrated by Dorian. However, she has to point out that the strategy of bodily practice of Dorian’s androgynous beauty fails to undermine the able-bodied biopolitics which deprives the disabled the opportunity to re-self-categorize themselves.

残疾,维多利亚时代的生物政治学和奥斯卡·王尔德的多里安·格雷

Hiu Wai Wong在她的文章“残疾,维多利亚时代的生物政治学和奥斯卡·王尔德的多里安·格雷”中论述了《多里安·格雷的画像》作为奥斯卡·王尔德一生中雌雄同体的美。王尔德对《德·普罗菲迪斯》中对阿尔弗雷德·道格拉斯勋爵的称赞表示赞赏,他对多里安(Dorian)的雌雄同体的描述可以理解为米歇尔·福柯(Michel Foucault)自我技术的展示。她认为,雌雄同体的美丽可以是一种身体实践的策略,它可以推翻维州的生物政治,而维京的生物政治则要求严格的性别角色。此外,她还探讨了营地的概念和朱迪思·巴特勒的行为理论,以解释多利安所展示的身体练习策略。然而,她必须指出,身体实践多利安(Dorian)雌雄同体之美的策略并没有破坏健全的生物政治,这使残疾人失去了重新自我分类的机会。黄浩威,《残疾,维多利亚时代的生物政治学和奥斯卡·王尔德的多利安·格雷》,第2页,共9页CLCWeb:比较文学与文化20.5(2018):生活写作和医学叙事中关于生命,疾病和残疾的专刊。埃德 I-Chun Wang,Jonathan Locke Hart,Cindy Chopoidalo和David Porter
