Abstract:Starting from Igbo Landing, site of an 1803 slave rebellion off coastal Georgia, this article compares written and folkloric accounts to question the status of the archive in early American studies. Ongoing stories of the Flying African, linked to the site, suggest space rather than time or periodization as the most useful rubric for framing early Americanist studies today.

早期美国文本中的空间、时间和目的：从伊博登陆开始

摘要：本文从 1803 年佐治亚州沿海奴隶叛乱的地点伊博兰丁 (Igbo Landing) 开始，比较书面记录和民俗记录，以质疑档案在美国早期研究中的地位。与该网站相关的飞行非洲人的持续故事表明，空间而不是时间或分期是构建当今早期美国主义研究的最有用的标题。
