Irish Modernism and the Harlem Renaissance: Ethnography and Transatlantic Literary Culture

我的研究询问爱尔兰现代主义文学和哈莱姆文艺复兴是如何被民族志意识的出现所塑造的。它通过探索民族志如何为爱尔兰和黑人民族主义框架内的作家提供了一种将他们的作品与欧美现代主义联系起来（并对其进行抵抗）的方法，弥合了学术上的差距。它考虑了人类学作为一门现代主义学科如何使参与、恢复和重新解释的过程成为可能，这些过程将民间传说和语言置于中心舞台，并产生了新的表达模式和激进的政治美学，推动了长期压迫的历史。

My research asks how the literature of Irish modernism and the Harlem Renaissance was shaped by the emergence of an ethnographic consciousness. It bridges a gap in scholarship by exploring how ethnography provided writers operating within Irish and black nationalist frameworks a means of situating their work in relation to (and in resistance to) Euro-American modernism. It considers how anthropology as a modernist discipline enabled processes of engagement, recovery and reinterpretation that placed folklore and language centre stage, and generated new models of expression and a radical political aesthetic that pushed against longstanding histories of oppression.
