초록
이 글에서는 미국의 제국주의적 기획과 그에 대한 대항 담론이 19세기 미국의 감상주의 문학을 전유하는 양상을 추적한다. 해리엇 비처 스토우의 『톰 아저씨의 오두막』과 필리핀의 식민지 상황에서 이 소설이 수용되는 과정을 살펴보면서, 스토우의 작품이 표상하는 가정성의 인종주의적인 함의를 규명한다. 그리고 카를로스 불로산의 『미국은 내 마음에』의 분석을 통해 20세기 초반 필리핀과 미국에서 제국주의적 가정성 담론이 관철되는 동시에 저항 받는 양상을 살펴본다. 특히 이 자전적 소설에서 필리핀 식민 주체가 “자애로운 동화” 담론과 협상하는 장면들을 집중적으로 분석하면서, 불로산의 텍스트가 제국주의적 가정성에 내포된 인종적이고 계급적 편견을 극복하는 양상을 조명한다.
Abstract
This essay explores the way in which American imperial policy and its counter discourse appropriate the nineteenth century American sentimental literature. I consider Harriet Beecher Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin and its reception in the colonial context of the Philippines. In doing so, my essay critiques imperialistic impulses embedded in the politics of racialized domesticity advanced by Stowe's text. This essay then queries Carols Bulosan's semi-autobiographical novel, America Is in the Heart, in order to trace the trajectory of the discourse of American imperial domesticity in the early twentieth-century Philippines and the United States. Looking closely at Bulosan's portrayal of the Filipino colonial subject's negotiation with the discourse of “benevolent assimilation,” I read his novel as a cultural space in which the imperative of the racialized domesticity is endorsed or questioned. This essay concludes that America Is in the Heart offers a serious critique of racist and classed assumption of the imperial domesticity.
