Abstract:This article proposes a contextual and comparative approach to Anne Enright's predilection for specific forms and themes and the critics' tendency to categorize them in accordance with the trends of contemporary literature. I analyze developments in Enright's work, historicizing her fiction and interrogating the impact of critical theories and terminologies on its writing and reading. The propensity to annex the prefix 'post-' to the names of current critical and cultural paradigms is widespread and symptomatic of an ongoing project to periodize and characterize contemporary literature. Enright rejects such descriptions that essentialize the thematic concerns of recent fiction and critiques fashionable terms such as postfeminism and postnationalism, which obscure historical realities and suggest that productive concepts such as feminism and nationalism have become outdated. Enright's writing career, spanning almost three decades, is illustrative of significant evolutions in the way western cultures relate to the prefix 'post-' and its temporal and paradigmatic connotations.

安妮·恩莱特小说中的后民族主义、后女性主义和其他“帖子”

摘要：本文针对安妮·恩莱特 (Anne Enright) 对特定形式和主题的偏好以及批评家根据当代文学趋势对其进行分类的倾向，提出了一种语境和比较方法。我分析了恩莱特作品的发展，将她的小说历史化，并询问批判理论和术语对其写作和阅读的影响。将前缀“post-”附加到当前批评和文化范式的名称的倾向是普遍的，并且是正在进行的对当代文学进行分期和表征的项目的症状。恩莱特拒绝这样的描述，这些描述使最近小说的主题关注必不可少，并批评后女性主义和后民族主义等流行术语，这掩盖了历史现实，并表明女权主义和民族主义等富有成效的概念已经过时。恩莱特跨越近三年的写作生涯说明了西方文化与前缀“后-”及其时间和范式内涵相关的方式的重大演变。
