在19世纪和世纪早期,爱尔兰地区,特别是西部地区,被认为是表现真正民族特征的地方,而由于英国的文化帝国主义,许多爱尔兰人已经与这种特征脱节。这一时期的地方色彩也主要通过民族透镜来解释。虽然过去和现在学术界承认与帝国主义和民族主义问题有关的区域文学和文化当然是合法的,但迄今为止对爱尔兰漫长的19世纪世纪地方色彩的狭隘态度使我们对其强大的跨国层面视而不见。本文提出了一个“易位”的爱尔兰区域研究更广泛的欧洲和跨大西洋的调查框架,在这方面,通过研究当地的色彩故事,一种体裁,记录的习俗,生活方式和方言的一个特定的地理社区。本研究提出了这样一个跨国的角度来看,三个现象的基础上:爱尔兰当地的色彩故事在欧洲各地的翻译流通;传播以及创造爱尔兰当地的色彩小说在北美散居;和跨国主义的作用作为一个主题-在(再)移民的形式-在爱尔兰当地的色彩叙事。
ABSTRACT During the nineteenth and early twentieth century, Irish regions, and especially those in the West, were interpreted as sites which expressed an authentic national character from which many Irish had become disconnected through English cultural imperialism. Local colour from this period has also mainly been interpreted through a national lens. While the past and present scholarly recognition of regional literature and culture in connection to issues of imperialism and nationalism is certainly legitimate, the hitherto rather insulary approach to Ireland’s local colour of the long nineteenth century has blinded us towards its strong transnational dimensions. This article proposes a “translocation” of Irish regional studies towards a broader European and transatlantic framework of investigation in this respect, by studying the local colour tale, a genre which records the customs, lifestyle and vernacular of a geographically specific community. This study suggests such a transnational perspective on the basis of three phenomena: the circulation of the Irish local colour story in translation across Europe; the dissemination as well as creation of Irish local colour fiction in the North American diaspora; and the role of transnationalism as a theme – in the form of (re)migrants – in Irish local colour narratives.
