纪念物质文化的活跃生命：一条中国辫子和爱尔兰公民军旗帜

当物质文化被用于纪念目的时，物品就成为记忆的工具，我们通过它来构建自己和他人的故事。通过探索在都柏林展出的一面爱尔兰公民军旗帜的“活跃生活”，以及《记住1916：你的故事》（阿尔斯特博物馆，2016年3月25日至2017年3月19日）中的一条中国辫子/队列，本文提供了对物体如何定位为主导或边缘叙事的一部分的见解。这些客体如何被体验，取决于它们所处的社会结构。在最早的阶段，国旗代表爱尔兰独立运动，辫子是佩戴者社区身份的象征。其他人的暴力干预改变了旗帜和辫子的含义，导致两者都成为战利品。后来，在博物馆和私人住宅中，保存这些物品表明了对文化意义的认识，而隐藏这些物品则表明了对与这些物品相关的最困难问题的回避。本文探讨了每一阶段所揭示的意向性，为纪念性物品的代理提供了新的思考。
ABSTRACT When material culture is used for commemorative purposes objects become mnemonic devices through which we construct narratives of ourselves and other people. By exploring the “active lives” of an Irish Citizen Army flag, exhibited in Dublin, and a Chinese braid/queue included in Remembering 1916: Your Stories (Ulster Museum 25 March 2016– 19 March 2017), this paper provides insights into how objects are positioned as part of dominant or peripheral narratives. How these objects are experienced is shaped by the social structures in which they are encountered. In the earliest phase the flag represented the campaign for Irish independence, and the braid was the symbol of the wearer’s community identity. Violent interventions by others changed the meaning of the flag and the braid, leading both to become trophy objects. Later, in the museum and a private home, the keeping of the objects suggests awareness of cultural significance, whilst their concealment suggests avoidance of the most difficult issues associated with those objects. This article explores the intentionality revealed by each phase providing new thinking about the agency of commemorative objects.
