项目摘要
The main focus of this project is to produce a book about Jocelin of Furness, one of the most influential hagiographers of the Insular Middle Ages who lived at the turn of the thirteenth century. Four substantial Lives composed by Jocelin survive, namely of St Patrick (patron saint of Ireland), St Kentigern (patron saint of Glasgow), St Waltheof (abbot of Melrose), and St Helena of Britain (mother of the Roman Emperor Constantine the Great). Jocelin worked under the patronage of prominent British and Irish ecclesiastical and secular leaders. These included Jocelin, bishop of Glasgow; Patrick, abbot of Melrose; and John de Courcy, conqueror of Ulster. Jocelin's significance as a historical figure has been somewhat overlooked (although the significance of his saintly biographies is clear). No overview of his work has yet been published, perhaps because his work ranged across modern political boundaries. Neither Jocelin nor his writings belong to the history of one nation. As an author he displayed familiarity with Gaelic, English, French and Latin. Scholars have disagreed over whether he was English, Scottish, Irish or Manx, for his work also shows sympathy with the identities of different political groups. It is precisely to explore the cross-cultural significance of Jocelin's output that this project is being proposed. Jocelin wrote about relations between England, Ireland, Scotland and the Brittonic world at a time when national identities were still at a formative stage in their development. He did so under the influence of broader currents of ecclesiastical reform and political ideology and the concerns and connections of his community in Furness. The project results will include a book containing complete editions and translations of two of Jocelin's Lives (The 'Life of Saint Waltheof' and the 'Life of Saint Helena') thus making these primary sources available for further research. Further chapters will cast light on the geographical and cultural context of Jocelin's works with a study of the cross cultural connections of medieval Furness and the Abbey (which had daughter houses in England, Ireland and the Isle of Man). The political circumstances of Jocelin's compositions will also be explored. Rather than mining hagiography as a source of 'facts' about saints, Jocelin's texts can be viewed as a commentary on contemporary cross-border relations. His works can provide an alternative viewpoint to charters and chronicles. Jocelin himself will be compared with other medieval hagiographers of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries whose cultural interests were split between rival political groups.In addition to producing a book, this project will raise awareness of Jocelin's work through the publication of an illustrated pamphlet and through a series of knowledge transfer activities, including a two-day conference, lectures and school visits. The potential applications and benefits of this project are varied. It will promote research by making primary sources available to a wider audience, by providing the first overview of the career of Jocelin as a significant medieval author, and by giving a new perspective on frontier relations. This project will also highlight the historical significance of Furness Abbey. The site is in a relatively deprived borough within the UK (see government statistics http://www.barrowbc.gov.uk/default.aspx?page=1572&theme=default). The heritage industry provides significant employment in South Cumbria and research on the area's medieval past can be directed in a positive way in partnership with the Cumberland and Westmorland Antiquarian and Archaeological Society (See 'Project Partners'), local organisations and visitor attractions. Jocelin's writings also bear on the local history of other places including Glasgow, Melrose, Ulster and the Isle of Man. They invite consideration of thecomplex relationship between different Insular polities in the Middle Ages.
这个项目的主要重点是制作一本关于弗内斯的乔斯林的书,他是13世纪初最具影响力的中世纪圣徒传记作家之一。乔斯林创作的四个重要的生命幸存下来,分别是圣帕特里克(爱尔兰的守护神)、圣肯丁根(格拉斯哥的守护神)、圣沃尔瑟夫(梅尔罗斯的修道院院长)和英国的圣海伦娜(罗马皇帝君士坦丁大帝的母亲)。乔斯林在英国和爱尔兰杰出的教会和世俗领袖的赞助下工作。其中包括格拉斯哥主教乔斯林;帕特里克,梅尔罗斯修道院院长;以及阿尔斯特的征服者约翰·德·库西。乔斯林作为一个历史人物的重要性在某种程度上被忽视了(尽管他的神圣传记的重要性是显而易见的)。也许是因为他的作品跨越了现代政治的界限,至今还没有发表过他的作品概览。乔斯林和他的作品都不属于一个国家的历史。作为一名作家,他精通盖尔语、英语、法语和拉丁语。学者们对他是英格兰人、苏格兰人、爱尔兰人还是马恩岛人存在分歧,因为他的作品也表现出对不同政治团体身份的同情。正是为了探究Jocelin作品的跨文化意义,才提出了这个项目。乔斯林写了英格兰、爱尔兰、苏格兰和布里顿世界之间的关系,当时民族认同仍处于发展的形成阶段。他是在更广泛的教会改革潮流和政治意识形态的影响下,以及他在弗内斯社区的关注和联系下这样做的。该项目的成果将包括一本书,其中包含乔斯林的两个生活的完整版本和翻译(“圣沃尔瑟夫的生活”和“圣海伦娜的生活”),从而使这些主要来源可供进一步研究。进一步的章节将阐明乔斯林作品的地理和文化背景,研究中世纪弗内斯和修道院的跨文化联系(它在英格兰、爱尔兰和马恩岛有女儿的房子)。乔斯林作品的政治环境也将被探讨。与其将圣徒传记作为圣徒“事实”的来源,乔斯林的文本可以被视为对当代跨境关系的评论。他的作品可以为宪章和编年史提供另一种观点。乔斯林本人将与其他12世纪和13世纪的中世纪圣徒传记作者进行比较,他们的文化利益在敌对的政治团体之间分裂。除了出版一本书外,这个项目还将通过出版一本插图小册子和一系列知识转移活动,包括为期两天的会议、讲座和学校访问,提高对乔斯林工作的认识。这个项目的潜在应用和效益是多种多样的。它将通过向更广泛的读者提供第一手资料,通过首次概述约瑟林作为一个重要的中世纪作家的职业生涯,以及通过对边境关系提供一个新的视角,来促进研究。该项目还将突出弗内斯修道院的历史意义。该网站位于英国一个相对贫困的行政区(见政府统计数据http://www.barrowbc.gov.uk/default.aspx?page=1572&theme=default)。遗产产业为南坎布里亚郡提供了大量就业机会,该地区中世纪历史的研究可以与坎伯兰和威斯特摩兰古物和考古协会(见“项目合作伙伴”)、当地组织和旅游景点合作,以积极的方式进行。乔斯林的著作也与其他地方的当地历史有关,包括格拉斯哥、梅尔罗斯、阿尔斯特和马恩岛。它们引起了人们对中世纪不同岛屿政体之间复杂关系的思考。
