ABSTRACT

While Linda Hogan scholars generally agree that in her literature of environmental justice, grieving the effects of colonised territory and culture can motivate characters to confront oppressive authority figures, scholars have not considered how representations of grief in Hogan’s novels are themselves significant political acts worthy of analysis. In this article, I argue that Hogan’s narrator Angel in her novel Solar Storms shows that grieving is central to Native survivance and environmental justice. In this essay, I utilise a theoretical framework based on the concepts of Native survivance and grievability to suggest how Hogan’s novel uses narrative perspective and imagery to represent the role of grief in transforming victimry to survivance for the intergenerational political community of the novel. In addition, I situate the historical James Bay Project in the context of the environmental justice work of Solar Storms.

摘要

尽管琳达·霍根（Linda Hogan）的学者们普遍认为，在她的环境正义文学中，悲伤的殖民地和文化影响可以促使人物去面对压迫的权威人物，但学者们并没有考虑到霍根小说中的悲伤表现本身就是值得分析的重大政治行为。 。在本文中，我认为霍根的叙述者天使在她的小说《太阳风暴》中表明悲痛对于当地人的生存和环境正义至关重要。在本文中，我利用一个基于本地生存和易受苦性概念的理论框架来建议霍根的小说如何利用叙事视角和意象来表现悲痛在小说代际政治共同体中将受害者从生存转变为生存的作用。此外，我将历史悠久的詹姆士湾项目置于“太阳风暴”的环境正义工作范围内。
