I introduce, or reintroduce, Douglas Livingstone, a poet – I aver – of world stature, but whose work, spanning 30 years (1960–1991), was neglected as insufficiently ‘political’ in apartheid South Africa of the 1970s. His poetry risks continued neglect, today, within the ‘Big Ideas’ of the postcolonial and the decolonial. In placing Livingstone ‘Beyond the Posts-’, I structure my argument around three key observations: Livingstone’s modernism of the South; his reference to himself as a ‘white African’; and the ‘green’ achievement of his last volume, A Littoral Zone (1991. Cape Town:The Carrefour Press).

道格拉斯·利文斯通:超越“帖子-”的诗人

我介绍或重新介绍道格拉斯·利文斯通(Douglas Livingstone),他是一位具有世界地位的诗人——我认为——但他的作品跨越 30 年(1960-1991 年),在 1970 年代种族隔离的南非因不够“政治”而被忽视。今天,在后殖民主义和非殖民主义的“大思想”中,他的诗歌有继续被忽视的风险。在将利文斯通置于“超越帖子”的位置时,我围绕三个关键观察来构建我的论点:利文斯通的南方现代主义;他称自己为“非洲白人”;以及他上一卷“A Littoral Zone”(1991. 开普敦:家乐福出版社)的“绿色”成就。
