摘要

This study is devoted to five Irish language texts composed in the period between 9th and 21st centuries: four prose tales, an Old Irish tale Loinges Mac nUislenn (The Exile of the Sons of Uisliu (before 10th c.)), two Middle Irish texts Toruigheacht Dhiarmada agus Ghrainne (The Pursuit of Diarmaid and Grainne (c. 12thc.)) and Tochmarc Etaine (The Wooing of Etain), an 18th century Romance of Mis and Dubh Ruis, and a narrative poem Mis published by the contemporary Irish poet Biddy Jenkinson in 2001. It examines the heroines of these texts, Derdriu, Grainne, Etain, and Mis, focusing particularly on their roles in the development of their respective narratives and their influence on the overall message of their texts. The texts share a strong connection in that they all, in a more or less direct way, touch upon the female experience reflected in their leading female characters, yet none of them, except for Jenkinson's poem, focuses expressly on representing female characters. Instead, the texts use these characters as a means for the elaboration of male characters, reinforcing at the same time the contemporaneous patriarchal viewpoint, thus creating the ideological scheme of the text. Jenkinson's Mis reveals the underlying narrative force of these traditional female characters. It uses a traditional tale to create a new narrative which is re-centered on its female character, thus narrativizing its inherent strength.;Beneath their explicitly assigned roles, the female characters in question serve as powerful narrative agents. Their impact transforms the overt ideologies of their respective narratives so that they diverge from the traditional role of the conveyors of conventional values. The examination of the female characters concentrates particularly on the effect their speech has on the development of the narrative. Although modestly represented in the discussed texts, the female words nevertheless subvert the explicit ideologies of their text by the introduction of skepticism as to the objective values suggested by the texts, thus allowing for a conversation with the prevalent discourses and in the end for the consideration of alternative discourses.;The dissertation employs Mikhail Bakhtin's theory of dialogism and heteroglossia, as well as his examination of the Bildungsroman, which allows for the theoretization of the connection between the texts, as well as for their re-interpretation.
机译:这项研究致力于9至21世纪这段时期内撰写的五种爱尔兰文字:四个散文故事,一个古老的爱尔兰故事Loinges Mac nUislenn(《伊斯留之子流放》(10世纪前)),两个爱尔兰中文字本。 Toruigheacht Dhiarmada agus Ghrainne(《追逐杀敌》和《 Grainne的追逐》(约12thc)和Tochmarc Etaine(《 Eooing of Etain》),《 Mis和Dubh Ruis的浪漫史》以及当代爱尔兰诗人Biddy出版的叙事诗《 Mis》詹金森(Jenkinson)在2001年。该书研究了这些文本的女主角,德德里(Derdriu),格莱恩(Grainne),伊坦(Etain)和米斯(Mis),尤其着重于它们在各自叙事发展中的作用及其对文本整体信息的影响。这些文本之间有着密切的联系,它们全部或多或少直接地触及了其主要女性角色所反映的女性经历,但除詹金森的诗外,它们都没有明确地表现女性角色。取而代之的是,这些文本将这些字符用作阐述男性角色的一种手段,同时加强了同时代的父权制观点,从而创造了文本的思想体系。詹金森的《错误》揭示了这些传统女性角色的内在叙事力。它使用一个传统的故事来创建一个新的叙事,该叙事重新以其女性角色为中心,从而使其内在力量失去了叙事性。在其明确分配的角色之下,所讨论的女性角色充当了强有力的叙事主体。他们的影响改变了各自叙事的明显意识形态,从而使它们脱离了具有传统价值的传送带的传统角色。对女性角色的检查尤其着重于她们的言语对叙事发展的影响。尽管在所讨论的文本中谦虚地表达了这些女性词,但通过对文本所暗示的客观价值的怀疑,引入了对女性文本的明显意识形态的颠覆,从而允许与普遍的话语进行对话,并最终进行考虑。论文采用了米哈伊尔·巴赫金(Mikhail Bakhtin)的对话主义和异质主义理论,以及他对比尔登格斯罗曼(Bildungsroman)的研究,从而对文本之间的联系进行了理论化,并对其进行了重新解释。
