| 内容記述 | “Recitatif” (1983) is the only short fiction which has been written by Toni Morrison. This story consists of the encounters and conversations every few years of two women, Twyla and Roberta, who first met in an orphanage when they were 8 years old. In addition to former research that had been discussed about racial matters, recently some studies have been engaged in analyzing a representation of disabled bodies. The theme of disability (or bodily impairment) in Toni Morrison’s works have been deliberated upon her novels. Many of these investigations have been focused on the disabled body as a kind of “grotesque” thing. However, in “Recitatif”, the imagery of grotesqueness is given not to just the orphanage’s kitchen woman, Maggie, who is supposed to physically and mentally disabled, but also the other characters. These are older girls (“big girls”) in the orphanage, who are called “gar girls” by Twyla and Roberta. The nickname of “gar girls” comes from “gargoyle”, a character that has a grotesque figure. It is supposed that they have an able body. Consequently, there is a more complicated relationship than the premise that connects grotesqueness and the disabled body as a straight one. Therefore, in this paper, I would like to reconsider the relationship between grotesqueness and disabled body. Maggie and big girls / gar girls appear in Twyla and Roberta’s reminiscences of the orphanage which they talk about in almost every encounter. Twyla and Roberta firstly call older girls as “big girls”, and in a certain point of this talk, they change it to “gar girls”. In this essay, I want to focus on this change of nicknames in order to reexamine the relationship. Focusing on it means to analyze the process of giving grotesqueness to not grotesque one at the beginning of this story. First, what happens in this change will be addressed. We will find the meaning of the imagery of “grotesque” as a sense of evil and sexual deviance in this story. Then, the meaning of this change will be explained. We will know the situation that Twyla and Roberta overcome a kind of threat by they became older than big girls. Thirdly, what Twyla and Roberta are doing in this change, especially how they are related to Maggie, will be examined. It will be show that comprehending this change is crucial for Twyla and Roberta to protect themselves against Maggie as a kind of danger. As a consequence, we will appreciate the failure of Twyla and Roberta’s attempt to guard themselves from the danger of Maggie. Finally, through investigating the meaning of this failure, the relationship between the grotesqueness and the disabled body will be elucidated. To conclude, it will find the fact that the possibility of the disabled body differs from the imagery of the grotesque in “Recitatif”. |
