调解起义:叙利亚电视剧中的性别和婚姻叙事展示了性别和婚姻隐喻如何为起义后的叙利亚戏剧提供各种形式的文化和政治批评。由于叙利亚政权努力控制革命话语,自起义以来,这些叙事变得复杂。随着叙利亚起义催生了更多的恐怖组织,一些戏剧创作者开始怀念战前的日子。
虽然对一些编剧来说,在经历了如此多的流血事件后,回到2011年之前的生活会受到欢迎,但其他编剧则主张进行深刻的文化和社会转型。他们在自己写的故事中使用婚姻和性别隐喻来进行政治批判,甚至冒着给节目带来营销困难的风险,或者他们创造了一些逃避现实的故事,比如跨国改编和大马士革的老故事。作为遗产保护,调解起义突显出叙利亚电视剧创作者有很多参与抗议的方式,性别和婚姻是争论的核心。
Mediating the Uprising: Narratives of Gender and Marriage in Syrian Television Drama
Mediating the Uprising: Narratives of Gender and Marriage in Syrian Television Drama shows how gender and marriage metaphors inform post-uprising Syrian drama for various forms of cultural and political critique. These narratives have become complicated since the uprising due to the Syrian regime’s effort to control the revolutionary discourse. As Syria’s uprising spawned more terrorist groups, some drama creators became nostalgic for pre-war days.
While for some screenwriters a return to pre-2011 life would be welcome after so much bloodshed, others advocated profound cultural and social transformation, instead. They employed marriage and gender metaphors in the stories they wrote to engage in political critique, even at the risk of creating marketing difficulties for the shows or they created escapist stories such as transnational adaptations and Old Damascus tales. Serving as heritage preservation, Mediating the Uprising underscores that television drama creators in Syria have many ways of engaging in protest, with gender and marriage at the heart of the polemic.
