Keynote Speeches

Plenary Session I

Ireland: From statehood and independence

To multilateralism and interdependence

Dermot Keogh

(University College Cork, Ireland)

Abstract: In the struggle for independence in the post-1916 period, insufficientimportance has been paid in contemporary scholarship to the internationalisation of therevolution and to the central part played by the Irish diplomatic service under Dáil Éireann indifferent parts of the world. In mobilising Irish people abroad between 1919 and 1922, theleadership of the nationalist movement realised the significance of interdependence andmultilateralism. That approach came to characterise the foreign policy of the new state fromits inception to the present day. Prof. Keogh will illustrate this with reference to a number ofcase studies.

Looking at Ireland from China

Jerusha McCormack

（Guest Professor in BFSU, Visiting Scholar to Trinity College Dublin）Abstract: Although hugely discrepant in size and culture – and half a world apart –

Ireland and the PRC have been running in a kind of parallel universe. Looking at Ireland fromChina renders their similarities more distinct. Both countries emerged from longstandingempires and foreign domination to proclaim themselves independent republics. Both haveendured colonization as well as a landlord class which exploited their peasantry, with longhistories of famine and diaspora. Both boasted of ancient civilizations which suddenly had tobe squeezed into a modern concept of nationhood. For both, inventing that nation involvedsocial chaos, violence and civil wars – and a crisis in defining their new identities as eitherChinese or Irish. Today, both countries are also suffering from the speed and intensity of rapidsocial change.

From this comparative perspective, it is possible to read Ireland itself in new andunexpected perspectives. This paper explores the fruitful possibilities inherent in this freshlyopened critical frontier.

Brexit, Irish Identity and Irish Studies in China

WANG Zhanpeng

（Beijing Foreign Studies University）

Abstact: As Irish Studies has emerged gradually as an independent academic discipline,the question of its disciplinary identity has become a topical issue among academia in China.The complexities of Brexit have undoubtedly imposed both tremendous challenges andopportunities to Ireland, North and South. No matter whether there will be a soft or hardBrexit, or whether the UK will ultimately leave the European Union or not, they will leavelasting imprints on the formation of a more confident, open, globalised Irish national identity(or Irishness), particularly on Irish role in the changing world. This converges with China’sendeavor to reverse the rising tide of de-globalisation and to enhance its connectivity with therest of the world. Sino-Irish relations will play an increasingly important part in the Irishendeavour to build this new external aspect of its identity as well.

In this context, what Irish studies can offer for the future of Chinese and Irish relations isbecoming an essential question for its efforts to seek a distinctive Chinese disciplinaryidentity. Irish studies in China has developed its own approach by going beyond narrowdisciplinary boundaries by examining Ireland’s historical, political, social, and literarycomplexity. Brexit provides new empirical facts to promote the interdisciplinary andmultidisciplinary dialogues among literary studies, historical studies and other academicdisciplines such as politics, sociology and international relations, which has potentials tocontribute to the emerging global Ireland agenda.

Dead orAlive? Language Revival and Cultural Memory

Regina Uí Chollatáin

(School of Irish, Celtic Studies and Folklore, University College Dublin)

Abstract: Opening with some thoughts from the Melbourne Advocate, an Australiannewspaper which hosted a Revivalist ‘Gaelic Column’ from 1912-1920, this talk will examinethe connection between language revival in Ireland and cultural memory in a national andinternational context. Linguistic assessment which focuses on the number of speakers alonedisregards the core principles and vision of the ideology of the Revival movement in itstotality and what it achieved. This paper will explore the connection between nationality andspoken language moving on to the analysis of the ideology of the Revival with ‘Irish ideas’and the power of language to influence, to assist in self-knowledge as a people, and in

15

particular to reformulate, revive and re-establish an Irish identity (regardless of location). Thepaper will conclude with an overview of the global connection, or ‘communities ofcommunication’ which are evident in the writings and media sources which have allowed ‘the[Irish] people [to] find that they can live as comfortably in Ireland as they can in any othercountry in the world’(Melbourne Advocate 16/3/1907). Contextualising these perspectives incontemporary scholarly frameworks of memory provides some signposts and snapshots increating a blueprint for a better understanding of the nature and function of memory incommunities where language is contested, even in communities where it is officiallyrecognised as a national language.

Plenary Session II

Yeats’s Lapis Lazuli: An Interpretation

FU Hao(Foreign Literature Research Center, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences)

Abstract: W. B. Yeats’s poem “Lapis Lazuli” (1936) not only draws inspiration from aChinese carving but also seemingly borrows something from a English version of a poem byBai Ju-yi. By digging deeply into the sources and drawing a detailed comparison between theoriginal meanings of the Chinese elements and Yeats’s representations in his poem, this papershows that Yeats’s creative imagination actually comes side by side with ignorant misreadingand therefore refutes some Yeats scholars’ interpretations based on irrelevant references andmisunderstandings.

The Correspondence between ALP and

Various Females in Joyce’s Works

FENG Jianming(Irish Studies Center, Shanghai University of International Business and Economics)

Abstract: The uniqueness of Anna Livia Plurabelle or ALP in Finnegans Wake (1939) isher changing identities in symbolic ways. ALP is specially characterized. The roles that shetakes on in the works of James Joyce (1882—1941) are fascinating, and important inrevealing Joyce’s aesthetic ideas. Joyce is not an aesthetician, but his ways in narration offer

16

the readers aesthetic pleasure. Joyce believes the concepts of the circulation of human historyand the changeability of an individual. The relation between ALP and diverse female figuresin Joyce’s fictional works can show Joyce’s aesthetic ideas in symbolic ways. This speechfocuses on Joyce’s aesthetic ideas via the correspondence between ALP and various females.First, the circulation in the cyclical theory of history is expressed by virtue of thecorrespondence between ALP and Issy. Second, the idea of the changeability of an individualis expressed by ALP’s so-called parodies. ALP is the incarnation of diverse female figures inJoyce’s fictional works. The transfigurations of the ALP in Finnegans Wake are important forthe readers to comprehend the spontaneous expressions of the human collectiveunconsciousness and they are indispensable for the unity between the content and the form.

Travelling in Translation

Hedwig Schwall

( Leuven Centre for Irish Studies (LCIS)/ European Federation of

Associations and Centres of Irish Studies)

Abstract: This paper will touch on four points: (1) the concept and network of EFACIS;highlighting two of its projects, I will present (2) Kaleidoscope and the contributions to TheDanger and the Glory, Irish Authors on the Art of Writing (Arlen House, June 2019) to showwhere literature comes from and what it does; (3) we see how translation fits into this pictureand how translation can travel, connecting students from all over the world in the BanvilleProject. In order to make these points I will refer to EFACIS publications, to John Banville,Michael Cronin and Robert MacFarlane.

Irish Studies from anAmerican Perspective

With a View toward China

Christian Dupont

（Burns Library, Boston College, USA）

Abstract: Maps pretend to be objective, but they really reveal our own perspectives onthe rest of the world. How did mid 20th-century Irish writer Flann O’Brien view China? Howmight 21st-century Chinese scholars explore and engage with contemporary Irish culture?This talk will highlight current themes and genres in Irish writing, and suggest new avenues

17

through which Ireland today may be viewed. Along the way, organizations that support IrishStudies will be introduced, including the John J. Burns Library at Boston College, one of anumber of academic libraries in North America that boast major collections of Irish literature,history, music, and art, and that welcome visiting researchers.

Anna Burns’Milkman and the Female Antibildungsroman

LI Yuan

(Guangdong University of Foreign Studies)

Abstract: Anna Burns’ Milkman belongs to a special genre of the postmodern femalebildungsroman which emerged in the 1960s in reaction to the traditional bildungsroman. Theheroines of the female Bildungsroman challenge the very structure of society, raisingquestions pertaining to class and gender equality. In this novel, Anna Burns usespostmodernist narrative techniques to disrupt the plot and to reflect the fractured, traumaticconsciousness of the protagonist, who comes of age in a tight and closed community rippedby years of violence. Although the setting in Milkman refers to the period of the Troubles inNorthern Ireland in the 1970s, the novel aims to offer a postmodern bildung narrative of ayoung girl’s resistance to the social constraints on female growth by exploring the chaotic age,the failure of mainstream ideology and the fractured identities.

Plenary Session III

Global Ireland and Poetry and Poetics as Soft Power: Dissemination

of Yeats Transnational Poetics of Othering

Youngmin Kim

(Digital Humanities Center/Institute of Trans Media World Literature

Dongguk University, Seoul, Korea)

Abstact: The objective of this presentation is to trace the trajectory of Yeats’s poeticsand rhetoric and invent the transnational poetics out of preexisting poetics and rhetoric ofYeats. Yeats reveals his major shift from the poetics to the rhetoric in the midst of themulti-level "twists and turns" which mark an important manifestation of the process oftransmigration toward the Unity of Culture, and I argue that Yeats’s quest for the Unity ofCulture manifest a transnational poetics. In fact, Unity of Culture is paradoxically theprimordial structure from which, and toward which, Yeats’s own poetic development directs

18

its own goal. As a result, the development manifests the on-going process of contestation andfragmentation on the bridge between the poetics and the rhetoric. The bridge is a site ofturbulent aporia site in which duplication of contestation creates a simultaneous centripetaland centrifugal movement, comingled with multiplication of fragmentation. In fact, Yeats’spoetics demonstrates heterogeneous “twists and turns” between description and analysis,narration and commentary, symbol and actual sight, verbal representation and visualrepresentation, voice and vision, visionary structure and rhetorical structure, magical allusionand awakening renovation, obsession and liberation, irony and allegory, and one can addmore.

AFar East Journey: Irish Literature in Japan

in the Late 19th Century

LI Chengjian

(Southwest Jiaotong University)

Abstract: It was during the late 19th century that Irish literary works were introducedand translated into Japan. The paper focuses on the three decades from 1890s to 1920s andsummarizes the main features of the specific introduction. It aims at discussing the culturalreasons why Japanese writers intended to fix on Irish literature. The paper argues that thethree decades at the turn of the centuries was a key time for Japanese society to adjust andreform its national image in the field of politics, international and regional relationship, andtherefore the introduction of Irish literature meant to learn from western good examples onthe one hand, and indicated the beginning of Imperial consciousness and its practice on theother hand.

Salome’s Trip to China

CHEN Li

(Beijing Foreign Studies University)

Abstract: Studies of Irish Literature is a lively and developing academic field in China.An interdisciplinary interest in Irish literature and culture, including the production of bothtranslations and critical studies of literature, has long attracted Chinese scholars. Oscar

19

Wilde’s play Salome is put within the context of early encounters between Irish and Chinesescholars of the early twentieth century to explore its assimilation into China’s literaryproduction. The visually shocking elements of the play that combine violence with eroticism,as is most forcefully embodied by Salome’s blood-stained kiss, were surprisingly welcome bya new generation of Chinese scholars as weapons against the stiflingly conservative feudalistculture and subsequently appropriated for literary expressions of freedom in both individualand political senses.

Plenary Session IV

Queen’s University Belfast: A Bridge Between Ireland and China

Aglaia De Angeli

(Queen’s University Belfast)

Abstract: Queen’s University Belfast was the alma mater of Sir Robert Hart (1835-1911)and Dr Stanley Fowler Wright (1873-1953), two men who developed and sustained a bridgebetween Ireland and China for almost a century. The presentation will deliver a briefbiographical sketch of Hart and Wright, to be followed by a discussion of the two collectionsof their private papers held at Queen’s University Belfast. Therefore, with a bibliographicalapproach focused exclusively on primary sources, we may trace some conclusive thoughts onthe impact of Hart and Wright’s role to develop and foster significant relations betweenIreland and China.

As a matter of fact, Hart’s collection contains a range of interesting and insightfulmaterial relating to his official duties and experiences in Beijing during his long career incharge of the Chinese Customs Service. Significant in this regard is the long series of 77personal journals which Hart kept during this time. In his journals he comments with candoron both his professional life and acquaintances and his personal family concerns. Thecollection also contains a substantial series of correspondence amounting to over 7,000 lettersdating from 1899 to 1911, and more than 2,500 photographs.

Comparable in size is Wright’s collection, which includes manuscripts, books in Chinese,books and pamphlets on China and on the Chinese Customs, many official publications,reports, etc., and copies of Customs publications, some with manuscript annotations byWright, evidence also of revisions for later editions. Among the manuscripts in this collectionare Wright's own notes and papers for his various published works, including, 'Hart and theChinese Customs' (Belfast, 1950).

Personal Reflections on Parallels

Between Chinese and Irish History

Peter E. Hamilton

(Department of History, Centre for Asian Studies, Trinity College Dublin)

Abstract: Many people would assume that there is little connection between Chineseand Irish histories. In fact, however, key themes link these two societies ’ historicalexperiences, such as anti-colonial nationalism and a deep attachment to rural communitiesand the land. As an American historian of China who recently moved from Beijing to Dublin,I will examine several of these themes and suggest how these common aspects of the Chineseand Irish experience might shape the twenty-first-century bilateral relationship and open newopportunities for engagement and collaboration.

Tax Competition and Factors Flow:

an Example of Double Irish

LUWenyue

(Dalian University of Foreign Languages)

Abstract：For the development of domestic economy, a country tends to cut taxes inorder to introduce foreign capital. On the one hand, lower tax rates will do good to capitalinflow, and promote domestic economic growth. On the other hand, lower tax rates will effectnegative externality, and become impediment to international governance of taxation. Thetax policy of Double Irish has long been praised by foreign companies, pushing forwarddomestic economic growth. However, in recent years, as the major economies in the worldare lowering their tax rates one by one, the advantages of Double Irish policy are diminishing,which brings a new challenge to Ireland in its transition period. This paper extends TieboutModel and takes Ireland as an example, analyzing the relationship between taxationcompetition and factors flow, and discussing the intrinsic mechanism and development path

Chinese Language Education:

the Present and Future Development in Ireland

ZHANG Qi

（School of Applied Language and Intercultural Studies, Dublin City

University）

Abstract ： China’s booming economy is indeed one of the main reasons for thepopularity of learning Chinese as a foreign language (henceforth CFL). With this growinginterest in CFL, Ireland is likely to be behind global trends as Chinese is not yet included as aState-examined subject at any level in the Irish schooling system. Chinese language teaching(henceforth CLT) began to develop significantly in formal UK schooling during 2004-2005(Zhang & Li, 2010), whereas the earliest occurrence of CLT seen in the Irish educationsystem was in 2006-2007 when two Confucius Institutes were set up in Ireland. During thistime, Mandarin Chinese was also introduced first as a subject and later as a degree in somehigher education institutions in Ireland. The current study reviews the past and present ofCLT in Ireland at second and tertiary level. This information, together with survey datacollected among approximately 3,700 students learning CFL in Irish schools as a subject notexamined by the State, provides recommendations for a future State-examined CFL course tobe introduced to Irish secondary schools. These recommendations include items such ascontact hours, tasks, and content to be implemented in the classroom. Furtherrecommendations are also supplied in relation to the bridging of secondary and tertiary-levelCLT. These recommendations come in light of former Irish Minister for Education RichardBruton's announcement that Chinese will be taught on the State-examined school curriculumas part of the Languages Connect strategy plan.

Parellel Session I: Modern and Contemporary

Irish Literature

1. Wu Guojie (Foreign Literature Research Center, Beijing Foreign Studies University)“Emigrants, Identity and Memory: the Issue of Identity in the Irish EmigrationFictions”

Owing to the growth of the Irish settlements in America where Irish culture was imported andthe Irish language was still widely used, as well as the lasting impact of “American Wakes”,which intensified their Catholic faith, enriched the Irish folk culture and forged a collectiveunconsciousness, emigrants in the 19th century Irish emigration fictions identified themselveswith Ireland, with the continuity of memory of the past. By contrast in the 20th & 21stcenturies novels, Irish emigrants developed transnational identities, with the break-off fromand activation of the memory of the past. When voluntarily being assimilated into newcultures, Irish emigrants suspended their past experiences and played down their Irishidentities. However, the memory of the past appeared again at critical moments to interferewith the process of Irish emigrants identifying themselves with the new countries. Eventually,they tended to become cosmopolitans.

2. Li Lianghui (Nanyang Technological University)“Irish Anti-Realist Legacy in The Third Policeman”

There is a lineage of Irish novelists who write against the petrification of the novel genre byRealism. Dating back to Laurence Sterne, the anti-realist thrust thrived in works of Joyce andBeckett and resonates in contemporary Irish novels. The experimental venture seeks to renewthe novel genre and also explores a myriad of narrative possibilities pertaining to theconception of reality. Flann O’Brien’s The Third Policeman registers this anti-realistic thrust.Keith Hopper has pointed out O’Brien’s disagreement with the “two towers” in Irish literature,namely, Yeat’s Irish Revival and Joyce’s Modernism. In fact, O’Brien’s rejection of the twosuggests a similar rationale: a disagreement upon realism and its masterly invisible author. Byemploying the device of mise en abymes thematically and formally, Flann O’Brienundermines the existence of reality and delves into the inadequacy of perception and thefailure of language.

3. Chen Cheng (Shanghai Normal University)“ Analyzing Collisions in The Beauty Queen of Leenane Under Hegel’s Theory ofCollision”

This paper tries to analyze the tragedy of the protagonist Maureen in the play The BeautyQueen of Leenane written by Anglo-Irish playwriter Martin McDonagh through Hegel’s

23

theory of collision which is proposed in his Aesthetics: Lectures on Fine Art. The collisioncaused by Pato’s impotence is the collision based on physical or natural circumstances. ThatMaureen has a tough time in London because of her Irish birth is the collision caused by thenatural birth. The fundamental cause of her matricide is spiritual difference between her andher mother Mag. This kind of collision is relied on a man’s deed. These three kinds ofcollision denote the inevitability of Maureen’s tragedy.

4. Su Jing (Xiangtan University)“On Ethical Dilemmas in John McGahern’s The Barracks”

John McGahern was one of the most outstanding Irish writers in the twentieth century. Hewas the author of six highly acclaimed novels, in which The Barracks was his first creation.The main clue of this novel was Elizabeth’s awakening to an authentic sense of herself, whichpresented the ethical dilemmas of her personal freedom from the claustrophobia of thebarracks routines, her thirst for live from death, moreover, intimacy and isolation. Withdistinctive realistic quality, the novel exposed the burden of being a women or a man in thecontemporary social context after the War of Independence. Meanwhile, the traces ofMcGahern’s childhood experience in The Barracks gave the novel autobiographical features.

5. Zhang Yanwei (Harbin University)“Yeats and Politics”

William Butler Yeats (1865-1939), born in Dublin, was one of the greatest poets andplaywrights in 20th century. He took an active part in the Celtic Revival and was appointedsenator of Irish Free State in 1922. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1923.As a great poet in Ireland, he can’t separate himself from Ireland. It was Ireland who gavehim unique perspective, vision and inspiration for artistic creation and in return he devotedhimself to eulogizing Ireland and promoting Irish culture, thus made an indelible contributionto the independence of Ireland. With close reading of Yeat’s poem “politics”, my paper willexplore Yeat’s relationship with politics: his early eager involvement in politics, his lateraversion to political violence & his subsequent determination to go beyond politics and returnto the eternity of arts.

6. Zhu Lei (Dalian University of Foreign Languages)“Meaning Construction and Political Metaphor in Gulliver's Travels”

Gulliver's Travels is the masterpiece of the famous writer Jonathan Swift. The multiplepolitical metaphors used in the novel play an important role in understanding the connotationof the work. Political metaphor is the structural mapping of the cognitive domain of politicalsentiment to the political cognitive domain. Its research field involves the role and function ofmetaphor in politics. Because of its strong symbolic and explanatory power, politicalmetaphor is also used in literary works. Combining Lakoff & Johnson's (1980) ConceptMetaphor Theory, this thesis deeply studies Swift's masterpiece Gulliver's Travels and

24

analyzes the mapping relationship between works and real society in order to explore themeaning construction and political metaphor in the novel, to expose the corruption and sin ofthe British ruling class and to criticize Britain's exploitation and oppression of Ireland.

Parallel Session II: Language, Culture and

Dissemination

1. Chen Hui (Shanghai Normal University)“When Beckett enters The World of Peking Opera: An Inspiring fusion of Eastern andWestern Drama Aesthetics”

Waiting for Godot of Wu Hsaing-Kuo’s Contemporary Legend Theater (2019) is a ChineseBeckett performance under the genre of Peking opera. This adaptation is loyal to Beckett’sboth in content and in drama aesthetic thought. This essay intends to explore how theadaptation represents Beckettian aesthetic pursuit of “emptiness”, “uncertainty”, and“meaning under the words”.The adaptation makes valuable exploration and experiment in promoting the modernizationand internationalization of traditional Peking opera.

2. Li Yanshi (Taiyuan University of Technology)“Study on the Translation of Beckett’s Drama in China: Waiting for Godot as CaseStudy”

The translation of literary text from one cultural context to another different one relies onsocial and political situation, ideology, market needs, reading interests and cultural traditionsof the recipient country. Therefore, the strategies the translator takes is very important forreception. Regretfully, there are more researches on introductions of Beckett’s drama thanthose of translations in China. And the differences between dramatic translation, as a specialliterary text, from other literary texts are overlooked. It is necessary to study the strategies andgains and losses of translation so as to discuss the generation and missing of meanings in thetranslating process from the aspects of dramatic translation, literature reception and culturalcommunication.

3. Qi Yulong (Northeast Forestry University)“On the Cultural untranslatability of Certain Parts in Gabriel Fitzmaurice’s Poems forChildren”

In the process of translating Gabriel Fitzmaurice’s Poems for children into Chinese, I foundcertain parts can’t be translated to, or rather, accepted by Chinese readers, which is due to theobstacle of understanding from a cultural rather than linguistic perspective. These partsinclude poems appearing at some Catholic occasion, some about death which is still quite a

25

taboo for Chinese children, and some showing the different ways of communication. Fromthese parts different educational suggestions can be found, and some of which can be quiteinspiring for Chinese parents.

4. Dang Anqi (Dalian University of Foreign Languages)“A Pragmatic Study of the Discourse Features of Seamus Heaney’sWintering out”

Wintering out is the third collection of poems written by the Nobel Literature Prize winner,Seamus Heaney in 1995. It is the poet’s initial work during his peak 10 years (1970-1980). Itwas the time that religious conflicts and violent conflicts broke out in Northern Ireland. In thecollected poems, the poet found his unique way about Irish culture and political expressionthrough the excavation of the Irish language and topography. Thus, the poet’s personalexperience extended towards broad national experience. It confirmed his poetic view thatpoetry was the self-return realization. This thesis analyzes the poetic discourse features ofSeamus Heaney’s poem, Wintering out from three aspects: detail description, rhetoric deviceand dialect words. So as to understand how Heaney explored his cultural identity deeply. Wecan also explore the power of national spirit redemption in his works.

5. Yang Shiyan (Dalian University of Foreign Languages)“A Variational Pragmatic Study of the Speech Act of Apology in Irish English”

This article takes a variational pragmatic approach to investigate formulae of apology andapology strategies by comparing the Irish English of Northern Ireland and Republic of Ireland.Using Irish component of the International Corpus of English, the analysis does not onlycenter on the apology frequency and strategies of two regions, but also on the contextualconstraints of the use of apology. The findings also highlight the influence of politicalpatterns on the use of apology speech act.

6. Zheng Yu, Liu Fengguang (Dalian University of Foreign Languages)“A Variational Pragmatic Study on the Speech Act of ‘Invitations’ in Irish English”

Irish English, as a variety of English, has been examined on a myriad of linguistic levels,increasingly researched from a pragmatic perspective, with current empirical studies onpragmatic issues varied in focus, but still remaining to be further expanded. Existingresearches in Irish English in the domain of pragmatics mainly center on linguistic forms,politeness strategies, and speech acts, among which studies on speech acts such as responsesto compliments, requests, offers and refusals of offers are particularly salient, with fewtouches on invitations, a crucial and effective way to help to establish and maintaininterpersonal relationship. Furthermore, variational pragmatics probes into varieties of thesame language influenced by geographical factors along with macro and micro level of socialfactors, which has been applied in Irish English studies. To address this gap, this article,building on the foundation of variational pragmatics, investigates the use of language with thefocus on the speech act of “invitations” in Irish English. Adopting a corpus-driven

26

methodology based on the Irish component of the International Corpus of English (hereinafterreferred to as ICE-IRE), the analysis concentrates on the pragmatic strategies, differences andrelevant causes in invitation realisations.

Parallel Session III: Irish Political and Social

Studies

1. Pang Weidong (Henan University of Animal Husbandry and Economics)“From chaos to order: an analysis of Irish Chinese Society”

Since Ireland opened to China its student visa at the end of the last century, Chinese hasbegun to enter Ireland on a large scale. Over the next ten years, Chinese society hasundergone a process from chaos to an orderly development. With the arrival of a largenumber of Chinese, various types of Chinese associations have emerged. At the same time,social networks, based on personal networks and linked by associations, have graduallyformed. Affected by objective factors such as language, culture and education, the Chinese inIreland still face some difficulties in social integration. A considerable number of Chinesestill have doubts about whether to integrate into Ireland and whether to settle in Ireland for along time. Although the situation of Chinese in Ireland has improved significantly, theirpolitical influence is still weak, and their traditional industries are facing the crisis of laborshortage.

2. Lv Dayong (Beijing Foreign Studies University)“Opportunities and Challenges: Irish Strategy on Global Talents”

Having the 4th highest international workforce in Europe, Ireland takes a critical position onglobal talent competition. Dublin ranks among the top 10 in the 2018 Global TalentCompetitiveness Index. Ireland’s current attractiveness to global talents is evaluated as a goodexperiment. Based on the theory of talent flows and talent incentives among regions andcountries, various aspects of Irish policy framework on international talents are analyzed,including Ireland's open economic and social environment, its immigration policy which isgradually leaning toward high-tech talents and an increasingly diverse international studentcommunity in Ireland. In the context of Brexit, Ireland seizes the opportunity to enhance itsappeal to EU and non-EU talents. At the same time, Ireland still has shortcomings inattracting global talents, such as housing shortage, high personal income tax, and regionalimbalance of attractiveness to global talents. Studying the status quo of Ireland's overseastalent policy not only offers evidence for improving the general principles of global talentpolicy, but also provides a reference for enhancing China's international competitiveness.

“Why Does the Irish Government Take Irish Border Issue So Seriously?”

Irish border problem re-emerged due to Brexit and had and will have a strong negative effecton Ireland. The Irish government is desperate to avoid the so called "hard border" and hasbeen lobbying the EU intensively. At the heart of Irish concerns, the Irish border is a matter oflife and death, not merely increased trade costs. Resolving the problem involves greatercooperation between Britain and Ireland and the Irish government holds the key to someextent. As we have witnessed, without the support of the Irish government, Boris Johnsonwould not have reached a revised Brexit deal with the EU.

4. Liu Yinghe (Beijing Foreign Studies University/Zhongnan University of Economics andLaw)“Comparative Study of Conflict Resolution in Northern Ireland and Cyprus”

Ireland and Cyprus are both divided islands in Europe. The ethnic conflicts in NorthernIreland and Cyprus which are multi-faceted and multi-layered, have a lot of in common, .They undermine peace and stability in Europe. This article starts with the historicalbackground of the conflicts to explain the rationale. Then the article exaimines the conflicts’influence on bilateral relations, and the roles of ethno-guarantors, the EU and other third-partyexternal actors in the conflict resolution process. Thereafter the success and failure ofconsociational democracy in respective cases are deliberated. Finally， it is contended thatunder current international circumstances, there is increasing uncertainty to Northern Irelandissue, while due to the intransigence of relevant parties, the peaceful reunification of Cyprusremains particularly difficult.

5. Zhang Xi (Beijing Foreign Studies University)“Devolution in Northern Ireland in the Context of Brexit”

Brexit has profoundly impacted devolution and the peace process in Northern Ireland whilethe Irish border is a major obstacle to it. Social groups and major political parties in NorthernIreland are deeply divided over the Brexit agreement, which poses a serious threat to thepeace maintained in Northern Ireland since the Good Friday Agreement. The uncertaintycaused by Brexit also challenge the economic and social stability of Northern Ireland.However, although Brexit has triggered discussions on holding a referendum on a unitedIreland, it still confronts considerable difficulties due to institutional and realistic constraints.The fundamental status of governing framework in Northern Ireland established by GoodFriday Agreement still remains.

6. Paul G. Murphy (Département d’information et de communication, Université Laval)“Montreal’s Irish Memorial Park: A Canadian Foreign Policy Strategy in HigherEducation for the ‘Third-Era of Globalization’”

Canada is a nation built on ethnic, linguistic and cultural diversity. This foundation haspermitted a tradition of navigating sovereignty in the shadow of great superpowers, beginning

28

with Great Britain and the United States today. As we enter into the “third-era ofglobalization,” plagued with crises of technological secular stagnation and non-renewableresources, Canadian Foreign Policy must exercise its soft power in Higher Education. Seizingopportunities presented by the Montreal Irish Memorial Park, this could take the forminstitutionally using resources from the “Canada–China Scholars Exchange” and the “IrelandCanada University Foundation.” There is reasonable doubt that failing to provide analternative to Toronto’s Sidewalk Lab model for Smart Cities, Canada will fail to traverse thechanging world ecology that welcomes China and other Newly Industrialized Countries (NIC).The Four-Leaf Model for a Living Laboratory between Canada, Ireland, and China, using apragmatist approach of the Right to Play, Art, Research, and the City, provides hope in theabsence of global commitments to the principals of the Club of Rome’s Limits of Growth(1972).

从中国看爱尔兰

Jerusha McCormack

（北京外国语大学客座教授、圣三一大学客座教授）

内容摘要：尽管爱尔兰和中华人民共和国在规模和文化上存在巨大差异，并且相隔

半个世界，但是两国的发展轨迹颇有平行之处。从中国的视角看爱尔兰，这使它们的相

似性更加明显。两国都经历了漫长的帝国和外国统治，才成为独立的共和国。两者都经

历了殖民统治以及剥削农民的地主阶级的统治，同时有着漫长的饥荒和侨民历史。两者

都有着古老的文明，同时又不得不经历急剧的变化 ，成为现代意义上的民族国家。两

国在建国前都经历了社会混乱、暴力和内战，也曾面临如何定义中国人和爱尔兰人身份

的危机。今天，两国正经历着快速发展和社会巨变。

从这一比较研究的角度来看，我们或可以一种出乎意料的全新视角来解读爱尔兰。

本文拟探索这一新近开拓的研究领域内的丰富可行性。

英国脱欧、爱尔兰身份与中国的爱尔兰研究

王展鹏

（北京外国语大学英语学院）

内容摘要：随着爱尔兰研究逐渐成为一个独立的学科领域，其学科身份成为中国学

者关注的一个问题。脱欧问题的复杂性无疑给整个爱尔兰，无论是北方还是南方，都带

ALP 与乔伊斯作品中女性形象的对应

冯建明

（上海对外经贸大学爱尔兰研究中心）

内容摘要：《为芬尼根守灵》（1939））中的安娜·利维娅·普卢拉贝尔（ALP）这一人物的独特性在于她角色转换所带来的象征意义。ALP 被特别刻画出来。在詹姆斯·乔伊斯（1882——1941）的作品中，她的角色引人入胜，对揭示乔伊斯的审美观十分重要。乔伊斯虽不是美学家，但他的叙述方式带给读者审美快感。乔伊斯相信人类历史周期理论和个体易变性。ALP 和乔伊斯小说中其他各式各样女性之间的关系通过象征充分体现了他的审美观念。本次演讲将通过分析 ALP 和其他女性形象的对应，重点关注乔伊斯的审美观念。首先，历史周期理论中的“循环”通过 ALP 和伊西的对应。其次，个体易变性通过对 ALP 的“模仿”。ALP 是乔伊斯小说中女性形象的典型代表。《为芬尼根守灵》ALP 的变形对读者理解人类集体无意识的自发表现具有重要意义，对于小说内容和形式的统一也不可或缺。

翻译中的旅行

Hedwig Schwall

(比利时鲁汶大学爱尔兰研究中心)

内容摘要:本文将涉及四点：（1）翻译是一种来回于重要性与意义之间的旅行，约翰·班维尔对文学和艺术的定义将被用来解释这一点；（2）从《危险与荣耀：爱尔兰作家论写作艺术》（Arlen House，2019年 6月）中的文章，我们可以进一步分析出文学的来源和作用；（3）翻译如何契合进这一图景；（4）翻译如何以一种生态友好的方式旅行，将来自世界各地的学生联系起来。为了阐明这些观点，我将引用约翰·班维尔、Michael Cronin的《生态翻译》（翻译和口译研究的新视角）、Robert MacFarlane的《地标》、Ethan Zuckerman 的《连接时代的数字世界主义》和欧洲协会联合会和爱尔兰研究中心的一些出版物。

析安娜·伯恩斯小说<送奶工>中的女性反成长叙事

李元

（广东外语外贸大学英语语言文化学院）

本文分析 2018 年英国曼布克文学奖获奖小说《送奶工》中作为后现代女性成长小

说的特征。该小说在叙事上沿用现代主义非线性、意识流、短缩法和后现代的戏仿、自

32

我指涉等，以第一人称方式讲述年轻女主人公在极度压抑的政治氛围下，如何应对成长

中遭遇的危险，如来自男性权威的性骚扰以及社群的流言蜚语等。起源于 18 世纪德国

的成长小说在受到各种意识形态和创作手法的挑战后，并没有消亡，而是随之进化，其

中的次文类女性成长小说于 20世纪后半期伴随女权主义和后现代主义思潮形成，由于

后现代主义与女性主义在主体和自我等概念上存在的天然不和，前者解构主体，而后者

需要建构主体，因此，女性成长小说很容易成为女性主义表达政治诉求的工具。尽管有

不少女性作家在创作中强化政治意图，但《送奶工》并没有简单复制传统成长小说模式，

也拒斥女权主义建构主体的积极乐观的口号，以细密的笔法刻画女性成长的失败、自我

的碎片化和损耗，也描写那些僭越和颠覆的瞬间。

美国视角的爱尔兰研究兼论中国

（美国波士顿学院）

内容摘要：地图假装客观，却其实揭示了我们对世界其他地方的看法。20世纪中叶的爱尔兰作家 Flann O’Brien是如何看待中国的? 21世纪的中国学者又是如何探索和研究当代爱尔兰文化? 本次演讲将突出爱尔兰作品的流行主题和流派，并提出新的建议和途径来审视当今的爱尔兰。本次演讲还将介绍那些支持爱尔兰研究的组织团体，包括美国波士顿学院的彭斯图书馆（John J.Burns Library），它是北美的几所爱尔兰学术图书馆之一，拥有大量重要的爱尔兰文学、历史、音乐和艺术藏品，并欢迎研究人员来访研究。

第三组：国际化爱尔兰、诗歌和作为软实力的诗学：

叶芝“他者化”诗学的跨国传播

金英敏

(韩国东国大学数字人文科学中心/跨媒体世界文学研究所)

内容摘要：本次讲演之目的在于追溯叶芝诗学与修辞学的轨迹，并自叶芝既有之诗

学和修辞学当中阐发跨国诗学。叶芝是在多层次的“千回百转”中揭示了他自诗学向修

辞学的重要过渡，这可说是向文化统一性的迁移过程的重要体现。我以为叶芝对文化统

一性之追求体现了一种跨国诗学。事实上，文化统一性是存有悖论的原始结构，叶芝本

人的诗学之发展发轫于它，指向其自有之目标。最终，这种发展体现出关乎诗学与修辞

学之间桥梁的如火如荼的对抗与碎片化过程。这座桥梁是一块混乱的悖论区，其间争辩

之复制，伴随着碎片化之丛生，制造出一种同时进行的向心与离心运动。事实上，叶芝

33

诗学展现了异质的“千回百转”，这种“千回百转”存在乎描述与分析，叙述与评论，

象征与真实景象，语言表达与虚拟表达，声音与视觉，视觉结构与修辞结构，魔力无穷

之引用与发省人心之革新，沉迷与解放，讽刺与寓言之间，不胜枚举。

19 世纪末爱尔兰文学的日本之旅

李成坚

（西南交通大学外国语学院）

内容摘要：爱尔兰文学在远东的传播始于 19 世纪末日本明治维新晚期。本文聚焦

日本 1890 年代到 1920 年代（即明治维新中晚期至大正时期），日本学人引介爱尔兰文

学的基本特征，重点探讨日本关注爱尔兰文艺复兴运动和引介爱尔兰文学现象背后深层

的文化动因。本文认为，19 世纪末到 20 世纪 20 年代世纪之交的三十年正是日本政治、

国际关系和区域关系调整和民族形象重塑的重要转折时期。爱尔兰文学的引介既是学习

他者、振兴民族文学的意志驱动，更是 20 世纪初日本在异域文学译介中的文学想象发

挥和帝国意识的文化表征。

《莎乐美》的中国行

陈丽

（北京外国语大学英语学院）

内容摘要： 中国的爱尔兰文学研究是个方兴未艾的研究领域。对爱尔兰文学和文

化的跨学科兴趣，尤其是对爱尔兰文学作品的翻译和研究，早在 20 世纪初便吸引不少

中国学者投身其中。本文将王尔德的名剧《莎乐美》置于上世纪初中国学者初始接触爱

尔兰文学的大背景下来解读，探讨其对中国现代文学创作的影响。以“莎乐美之吻”为

代表的经典意象，结合了暴力与情色的元素，却出乎意料地受到新生代中国作家的欢迎，

被视为反抗窒息保守的封建文化的绝佳武器，并随即将之挪用来表达个人和文学创作层

面的自由。

内容摘要：贝尔法斯特女王大学是罗伯特·哈特爵士(1835-1911)和斯坦利·福勒·赖

特博士(1873-1953)的母校，这两个人在爱尔兰和中国之间建造了一座桥梁并维持了近

一个世纪。本演讲将介绍哈特和赖特的生平简介，随后将讨论他们在贝尔法斯特女王大

学的私人文件收藏。以文献研究的方式，我们可以追溯哈特和莱特在发展和促进爱尔兰

和中国之间的重要关系方面所起的作用。

事实上，哈特的收藏中包含了一系列有趣而有见地的材料，与他在中国海关漫长的

职业生涯中在北京的公务和经历有关。在这方面，重要的是哈特在此期间保存了 77 本

个人日记。在他的日记中，他坦率地评论了他的职业生涯和熟人以及他的个人家庭问题。

该收藏还包括从 1899 年至 1911 年的 7000 多封书信和 2500 多张照片。

赖特的收藏在规模上可与之相比，其中包括手稿、中文书籍、有关中国和中国海关

的书籍和小册子、许多官方出版物、报告等，以及海关出版物的副本，其中一些附有赖

特的手稿注释，还有后来版本的修订证据。这些手稿是莱特自己的笔记和论文，是他出

版的各种作品，包括《哈特与中国习俗》(贝尔法斯特，1950)。

税收竞争与要素流动——以“双层爱尔兰”为例

陆文玥

（大连外国语大学）

内容摘要：出于本国经济发展需要，各国往往通过降低税率吸引国际资本。一方面，

低税率有利于吸引外资，促进本国经济增长；另一方面，低税率具有负外部性，并阻碍

国际税收治理。一直以来，“双重爱尔兰”税制为爱尔兰赢得了外资的青睐，推动本国

经济增长。然而，近年来，随着世界主要经济体纷纷降低税率，爱尔兰税收政策优势日

渐式微，这对处于转型期的爱尔兰提出新的挑战。本文基于蒂布特扩展模型，以爱尔兰

为例，分析税收竞争与要素流动之间的关系，探讨爱尔兰经济成功的内在机理和发展路

径。

爱尔兰汉语教育的目前发展和未来展望

张绮

（爱尔兰都柏林城市大学应用语言和跨文化研究学院）

内容摘要：中国蓬勃发展的经济确实是普及“汉语作为外语”（简称 CFL）的主

要原因之一。随着人们对 CFL 的兴趣日益浓厚，爱尔兰很可能会落后于全球趋势，因为

在爱尔兰的学历体系中，汉语还没有被列入国家审查的科目。在 2004-2005 年期间，汉

语教学在英国的正规学校教育中开始显著发展（Zhang＆Li，2010），而在爱尔兰教育

体系中出现的最早的汉语教学发生在 2006-2007 年，当时成立了两个孔子学院。在此期

间，汉语先是作为一个科目被引入爱尔兰的一些高等教育机构，后来又成为学位课程的

一部分。当前研究综述了汉语教学在爱尔兰的中学和大学的过去和现在的发展。另外，

当前研究汇总了针对爱尔兰学习汉语的大约 3700 名学生所收集的调查数据。此研究为

今后汉语将要成为爱尔兰高考科目，并为将要引入爱尔兰中学教育体系提供了建议。

《移民、身份与记忆：爱尔兰移民小说中的身份认同》

由于爱尔兰种族聚居区内爱尔兰文化的移植、爱尔兰语的使用以及“美国守灵夜”这

一仪式在爱尔兰移民身上的持续影响，在爱尔兰移民小说中，19世纪的爱尔兰移民虽然身

处异乡，但是由于并没有跟过去和原乡文化断裂，记忆的延续使得他们与原乡认同；小说

中 20 世纪以后的爱尔兰移民有被同化的强烈愿望，在积极主动地融入异质文化移居国的过

程中，过去的记忆出现中断。然而，移民回乡探亲以及全球化时代的世界主义又使得记忆

被激活，从而干预新身份的建立，记忆的中断和激活使得 20 世纪以后的爱尔兰移民形成非

此非彼的“跨界”身份。

2.李良会（南洋理工大学）

《<第三个警察>中的爱尔兰反现实主义传统》

爱尔兰的文学血脉孕育了这样一批作家，他们打破现实主义对小说形式的禁锢。这一

另类传统的起源可追溯至劳伦斯·斯特恩，在乔伊斯和贝克特的作品中大放异彩，并在当

代爱尔兰小说中得以延续。反现实主义风格追求小说形式上的创新，也对“现实”这一概

念谋求多样的理解与文学重塑。弗兰·奥布莱恩的小说《第三个警察》承接了爱尔兰文学

反现实主义的传统。基斯·霍普指出奥布莱恩并不认同爱尔兰文学的“两座高峰”，分别

是以叶芝为代表的爱尔兰文学复兴运动和以乔伊斯为代表的现代主义文学思潮。然而，奥

布莱恩对两者的抗拒都体现了他对现实主义小说和至高无上的作者权威的排斥。 通过多重

嵌套式结构在主题和形式上的运用，《第三个警察》中的现实得以消解，奥布莱恩进而剖

析了认知及语言的不可靠性。

《黑格尔冲突理论视角下<丽南镇的美人>》

本文主要运用黑格尔在《美学：美学讲演录》中提出的冲突理论来分析爱尔兰裔英国

戏剧家马丁·麦克唐纳的戏剧《丽南的美人》中主人公莫琳悲剧的成因。该剧讲述了 20 世

纪 90 年代爱尔兰西部的家庭关系，以及爱尔兰打工者在英国的悲惨遭遇。大量的冲突是该

剧的一大特征。佩托的性无能所导致的母女冲突为物理的或自然的情况所产生的冲突；莫

琳的爱尔兰出身导致其在英国到处碰壁是为由自然条件产生的心灵冲突。她与母亲玛格心

灵性的差异从而产生的冲突是导致她弑母的根本原因。这三类冲突的产生预示着莫琳悲剧

的必然性。

《约翰·麦加恩小说<警局>中的伦理困境》

37

约翰·麦加恩（1934—2006）是 20世纪爱尔兰最杰出的作家之一。他一生撰写了 6部

小说，《警局》是他的第一部作品。小说以女主角伊丽莎白自我感知的觉醒为主线，书写

了个人自由与幽闭的警局生活，“生”的渴求与“死”的沉沦，亲昵与疏离等方面的伦理

困境，映照出了当代爱尔兰社会背景下普通男人和女人的沉重生活，具有鲜明的现实主义

文学色彩。同时，根据麦加恩个人的成长经历，《警局》还具有浓重的自传性书写特征。

5. 张艳威（哈尔滨学院）

《叶芝与政治》

叶芝出生在都柏林，是 20 世纪最伟大的诗人、剧作家之一。他积极投身于爱尔兰文艺

复兴运动，于 1922 年担任爱尔兰自由邦议员，并于次年获诺贝尔奖。作为伟大的诗人，他

的一生离不开爱尔兰。是爱尔兰赋予他独特的视角、幻想及灵感，而他也倾其一生讴歌爱

尔兰，弘扬民族文化，为爱尔兰的独立做出了不可磨灭的贡献。本文将借助叶芝晚年创作

的一首小诗“政治”来探讨叶芝与政治间千丝万缕的关系：叶芝早年曾积极投身于政治当

中，后来对于政治暴力越来越反感，所以决心超越政治，回归到永恒的艺术当中。

6. 朱磊（大连外国语大学）

《<格列佛游记>中的意义构建及政治隐喻》

《格列佛游记》是著名作家乔纳森·斯威夫特的代表作，小说中使用的多重政治隐喻

在理解作品内涵起到轴心性作用。政治隐喻是政治情感信念认知域向政治认知域的结构映

射，其研究领域涉及隐喻在政治中的作用和功能。由于其具有很强的象征性及阐释力，政

治隐喻也被应用于文学作品当中。本文结合 Lakoff& Johnson（1980）的概念隐喻理论，深

入研究斯威夫特的杰作《格列佛游记》，分析作品与现实社会的映射关系，以此来挖掘小

说中的意义构建和政治隐喻，揭露英国统治阶级的腐败和罪恶，批判英国对爱尔兰的剥削

压迫。从而更好的解读小说背后的辛辣讽刺。

《当贝克特走进京剧----一场东西方戏剧美学的精彩融合》

《等待果陀》是改编《等待戈多》的戏曲舞台作品。它无论在戏剧内容还是在戏剧美

学思想呈现上，都忠实或贴近原作。本论文将从舞台布景、舞台人物形象、和人物语言（肢

体语言和文学语言）三方面展现戏曲改编版如何以京剧形式去表现“虚空”、“不确定性”

和“言外之意”这些贝克特戏剧中突出的美学追求的。

这部跨文化戏曲改编作品，在推动传统京剧现代化和国际化上做了可贵探索和实验：

一方面融入了现代剧场观念，同时将现代西方对人类生存困境的哲思，以符合中国观众的

审美方式，与中国人心灵共振；另一方面，以京剧为艺术媒介，在舞台时空处理上、语言

节奏韵律上和人物肢体动作上，为西方观众带来了独到的表现方式，展现了传统京剧在当

下的活力。

《贝克特戏剧的中国翻译研究——以<等待戈多>为个案》

一个文学文本从一种文化语境被译介到另一个不同的文化语境，受到接受国的社会状

态、政治形势、意识形态、市场需求、阅读趣味、文化传统等各种因素的影响，因此译者

采用什么样的翻译策略，对所译作品的接受情况，具有相当重要的作用。然而遗憾的是，

目前国内对于贝克特戏剧的译介，更多的是只有关于“介”的研究，而几乎没有关于“译”

的研究，尤其是没有关注，作为一种特殊的文学文本，戏剧剧本的翻译与其它文学文本翻

译的特殊之处。因此，有必要对译者的翻译策略以及翻译的得失进行研究，以便从戏剧翻

译、文学接受、异质文化交流等方面，进一步探讨翻译过程中发生的意义的损失和产生，

从微观层面对贝克特戏剧在中国的译介进行深入剖析，从而有更全面而具体的认识。

《论加百列·菲茨莫芮斯儿童诗歌中的文化不可译现象》

在将加百列·菲茨莫芮斯儿童诗歌译成中文的过程中，译者发现有些内容是无法被中

国读者读懂，或者说接受的，其原因在于文化方面而非语言方面的阻碍。这些内容包括描

写天主教节日的、描写对于中国儿童而言仍属禁忌的死亡的，以及描写不同交流方式的。

从这些内容中可以得到与中国教育不同的启示，对中国家长而言具有一定的启发性。

《谢默斯·希尼<外出过冬>的话语风格研究》

《外出过冬》是 1995年诺贝尔文学奖得主谢默斯·希尼的第三本诗集，也是诗人文学创

作颠峰 10年（1970-1980年）的发端之作，正值北爱尔兰宗教矛盾及暴力冲突集中爆发时。

在这本诗集中，诗人通过对爱尔兰语言和地形的历史挖掘，找到了他对爱尔兰文化和政治

表达的独特言说方式，从而使诗人的个人经验延伸为广阔的民族经验，实践了他的“诗是文

化的自我回归”的诗学观点。本文从细节描写、修辞手法、方言词语三个角度入手，剖析了

谢默斯·希尼第三首诗集《外出过冬》的诗歌语言风格，从而更深刻地理解希尼如何探寻自

身文化身份，从诗歌中探求民族精神救赎的力量。

《后殖民理论视野下的爱尔兰流行音乐场景》

流行音乐作为大众文化的重要组成部分，是当代文化研究的重要对象。本文将基于葛

兰西的“文化霸权主义”理论范式，将二十世纪六十年代以来的爱尔兰流行音乐场景作为

一个爱尔兰民族身份与英美文化霸权相互抗衡和斗争的场域来进行考察；以此揭示该文化

现象之下，爱尔兰民族性与英美文化霸权之间的权利关系。同时，也可以通过此项研究来

探讨我国流行文化在全球化文化格局之下所面临的挑战和发展的前景。

结构和方法上，本研究将以谱系学的方法，从民谣音乐、摇滚音乐和世界音乐三种典

型的流行音乐形态入手，通过音乐文本分析和数据挖掘来研究爱尔兰流行音乐中英美当代

文化要素和爱尔兰民族性要素的各自显现，以及相互之间的影响和关联。

本文采用变异语言学方法探讨了北爱尔兰英语和爱尔兰共和国英语中道歉言语行为的模式

及策略。本研究以国际英语语料库中（International Corpus of English，ICE）爱尔兰

英语子语料库中的道歉言语行为为研究对象，探讨了两地区道歉频率、道歉策略的差别以

及其语境制约因素。研究结果显示政治制度对道歉言语行为使用具有较大影响力。

《变异语用学视角下爱尔兰英语中的邀请言语行为研究》

作为英语的变体之一，爱尔兰英语的研究大多集中在语言的不同层面上。近来，越来

越多的学者在语用学领域对爱尔兰英语进行深入探讨，研究对象虽较为广泛，但相关研究

还有待进一步补充。在现有研究当中，众多学者对爱尔兰英语的语言形式、礼貌策略、言

语行为进行实证研究，其中恭维回应语、请求、提议与提议拒绝语等言语行为的研究颇受

关注，而有助于建立和维护人际关系的邀请言语行为却少有提及。不仅如此，变异语用学

旨在探究地理和社会宏观、微观因素对同一语言不同变体的影响，常应用于爱尔兰英语研

究中。为弥补变异语用学视角下爱尔兰英语邀请言语行为研究的空白，本研究基于国际英

语语料库中的爱尔兰英语子语料库（ICE-IRE），着重探讨了爱尔兰英语中实施邀请言语行

为的语用策略、地域差异及潜在动因。

爱尔兰在国际人才竞争舞台上占有优势地位，是欧洲第四大国际劳动力流入国，而其

首都都柏林在2018年国际人才竞争指数中跻身前十。本文介绍爱尔兰吸引国际人才的现状，

并依托地区和国家间人才流通理论和人才激励理论，分析爱尔兰海外人才战略的主要特点，

包括爱尔兰开放的经济与社会环境、逐渐向国际高技术人才倾斜的移民政策、日益多元的

国际留学生群体等构成海外人才政策框架的不同方面。在英国脱欧的背景下，爱尔兰抓住

机遇，增强自身对欧盟和非欧盟海外人才的吸引力。但同时爱尔兰在国际引才政策方面仍

有短板，如住房短缺、高个人所得税、地区人才吸引力不平衡等。研究爱尔兰海外人才政

策现状，不仅为完善人才引进政策的一般规律提供资料，同时也对增强我国人才工作的国

际竞争力提供了一定的参考借鉴。

《为何爱尔兰政府如此在意爱尔兰边界问题？》

北爱尔兰和爱尔兰共和国之间的边界问题因英国脱欧而再度浮现，它已经并将继续对

爱尔兰产生巨大的负面冲击。爱尔兰政府对此问题极为关注，急切地想要避免爱尔兰岛上

出现“硬边界”，并对欧盟进行了密集的游说。对于爱尔兰而言，边界问题不仅事关贸易

成本的增加，更是涉及生与死（和平）的重大问题。边界问题的解决需要英国和爱尔兰两

国政府的进一步合作，而某种程度上爱尔兰政府的立场是解决问题的关键。如我们所见，

约翰逊首相正是在得到爱尔兰政府的支持后才与欧盟达成了修正后的脱欧协议。
