Abstract:This article re-considers the language of racial stereotype that is at the forefront of the “Cyclops” episode in Ulysses. Critics have long characterized the conflict between Leopold Bloom and the Citizen in terms of how each character defines the Irish nation. According to these readings, Bloom’s cosmopolitanism stands against the Citizen’s xenophobic nationalism. But the latter’s reliance on the language of racial stereotype—most evident in the anti-Semitic insults he hurls at Bloom—betrays the decidedly non-local basis of his rhetoric. Indeed, this essay reveals the extent to which the Citizen’s conceptualization of the Irish nation actually appropriates the language of Jewish nationalism, a discourse that circulated throughout Britain during the turn of the twentieth century.

爱尔兰 - 以色列主义:重新考虑“独眼巨人”中的种族和归属政治

摘要:本文重新考虑了《尤利西斯》中“独眼巨人”一集最前沿的种族刻板印象语言。长期以来,批评家一直根据每个角色如何定义爱尔兰民族来描述利奥波德·布鲁姆 (Leopold Bloom) 和公民之间的冲突。根据这些解读,布鲁姆的世界主义反对公民的仇外民族主义。但后者对种族刻板印象语言的依赖——最明显的是他对布鲁姆的反犹太主义侮辱——暴露了他言辞的明显非本地基础。事实上,这篇文章揭示了公民对爱尔兰民族的概念化实际上在多大程度上采用了犹太民族主义的语言,这是一种在 20 世纪之交在英国流传的话语。
