Abstract:This essay considers Joyce's literary response to the 1916 Easter Rising by examining how Ulysses and Finnegans Wake establish a dynamic participatory space in which readers might negotiate the meaning of the historical event. The "Cyclops" episode of Ulysses, in its mock-accounts of the Keogh-Bennett boxing match and the Irish Volunteer garrison at Jacob's Biscuit Factory, illuminates the misuse of figurative language, the classic trope of catachresis, awakening readers to the rhetorical underpinning of the Irish revolution. Expanding this work of metaphorical interpretation and historical re-assessment, Finnegans Wake resituates the core metaphors of the Easter Rising within mythic and super-historical contexts.

昆斯伯里规则和雅各布饼干:詹姆斯乔伊斯的复活节起义

摘要:本文通过考察《尤利西斯》和《芬尼根觉醒》如何建立一个动态的参与空间,读者可以在其中协商历史事件的意义,从而考虑乔伊斯对 1916 年复活节起义的文学回应。尤利西斯的“独眼巨人”一集,在其对 Keogh-Bennett 拳击比赛和雅各布饼干工厂的爱尔兰志愿者驻军的模拟账户中,阐明了比喻语言的滥用,即宣泄的经典比喻,唤醒读者对修辞基础的认识爱尔兰革命。Finnegans Wake 扩展了这项隐喻解释和历史重新评估的工作,将复活节起义的核心隐喻重新置于神话和超历史背景中。
