「迷霧時期」香港文學的「邊界」探索（1997-2014） : 論陳冠中、黃碧雲、韓麗珠小說中的文化身分, Yat Long Wong

Lingnan Theses (MPhil & PhD)

臨近九七，在歷史鎂光燈的照耀下，圍繞著回歸命題的香港文學研究蔚然成風；走過2014年的社會動盪，香港文學與社會關懷的傳統課題重啟，漸成研究的焦點。然而，介乎兩者之間的一段時期，受限於好像「什麼都沒有發生」的表徵，一直未受到研究者廣泛的關注。故本文提出1997-2014年為「迷霧時期」的時間概念，結合霍米．巴巴（Homi K. Bhabha）的「邊界」（boundary）觀念，試圖相對立體地展現出這時期香港文學的發展面貌，並延伸至對文化身分（cultural identity）的思索。巴巴提出「揉雜」（hybridity）和「超越」（beyond）等概念，視「邊界」為突破傳統二元對立框架的流動文化觀念，有助我們思考文學與身分的複雜性。本文以「邊界」為方法，分別討論陳冠中、黃碧雲和韓麗珠三位代表不同年代和面向的香港當代重要作家的小說作品。陳冠中一章環繞「國籍」與「城籍」的「邊界」；黃碧雲一章聚焦「世界」與「本位」的「邊界」；韓麗珠一章關注「個人」與「社會」的「邊界」，每章各有側重的同時，共同編織橫跨三層維度的「邊界」網絡，立體地展現出「迷霧時期」香港文學的各種面向。總結是次研究所得，以「邊界」為方法有效地呈現出「迷霧時期」香港文學的發展面貌，勾勒出不同年代的作家在回歸後探尋「位置」的異同，補足了這時期香港文學研究的空白，並以文學的獨特視角，豐富對文化身分的討論。在邊緣性的文化身分的基礎上，陳冠中、黃碧雲和韓麗珠分別呈現出對回歸後香港前景的不同展望，從審慎樂觀到悲觀，立體地呈現出「迷霧時期」文化身分的複雜性。

“A Very Fine Plan In The Memory Of Our Boys:” Commemorating The Owen Sound Collegiate And Vocational Institute Second World War Dead, David Ross Alexander

Canadian Military History

The memorial plaques dedicated to the First and Second World War dead of many of Canada’s secondary schools including the Owen Sound Collegiate and Vocational Institute may have borne close resemblance but the experience of those whose names appeared on the walls was very different. The adolescent experience of students who attended these schools during the interwar years contrasted with that of their mothers and fathers. They enlisted, fought and died in a much more technologically advanced and globalised war than the previous generation. They were shaping their own distinct identity in youth and war and how would the collective …

Historian George M. Marsden's piece on the life of American preacher and theologian Jonathan Edwards offers a biographical account as rich in insight as it is convenient in succinctness.

"Cry Aloud And Spare Not": William G. Brownlow, The "Fighting Parson" And His Cantankerous Spirit, Melanie Storie

Bound Away: The Liberty Journal of History

Best known as the “Fighting Parson,” William G. Brownlow earned his sobriquet during his years as an early 19^th century, circuit-riding Methodist preacher in the southern Appalachians. E. Merton Coulter, renowned historian and Brownlow biographer, explained the “frontier man of God was a hard rider, a hard preacher, and a hard liver.” Thus, Brownlow learned very quickly how antagonizing his rivals served as a powerful tool in the contest of soul-winning on the frontier. This practice of verbally attacking his enemies was also used during his long public career in both journalism and politics. Consequently, for Brownlow, religion and …

An Alternate Route: How Ronald Reagan Defied Expectations With His Approach To The Crosswinds Of The Patco Strike, Brock Bellinger

Bound Away: The Liberty Journal of History

One challenge which reveals an executive’s leadership ability involves making the decision to fire an employee. President Ronald Reagan did not enjoy firing employees, due in part to his own father struggling to maintain employment. When the 1981 PATCO strike occurred, several obstacles arose which tested Reagan’s ability to act. The Professional Air Traffic Controller’s Organization (PATCO) had publicly supported Reagan during his 1980 presidential campaign when other unions did not. Additionally, Reagan was sympathetic to unions, even serving as President of the Screen Actor’s Guild. These potential obstacles proved challenging from a political and personal perspective. However, when the …

Jane Austen: A Study On The Influences, World, And Character Of An Eighteenth-Century Novelist, Elisabeth Phillips

Myth, Soul, And The Feminine

Journal of Conscious Evolution

What are some of the root causes that have caused the subjugation of women? Could it all have begun with the fantastical and alluring myths we were told? If so, how does myth become truth for societies as a whole? If that does happen, then it must be true that the mythic is where the emergence of the soul is found; the soul of humanity? Thereby, creating the realities found in the society of today. Even more intriguing is how consciousness and art find their way in merging with myth producing awareness, wonder, and connection in society. Thus, revealing the …

Deconstructing Consciousness In Art, Leila Kincaid

Journal of Conscious Evolution

To the extent that art mirrors consciousness, what does the art of any age have to tell us about where we are as a species and civilization? In this paper, I suggest that modern and postmodern art reveals the tendency toward deconstruction, of our identities, as selves, as cultures, and as a civilization. Through this process of deconstruction, there is a space offered to us through the experience of art, of freedom to recreate ourselves, our identities, and our sense of purpose and meaning in the cosmos. Grounding the inquiry in texts from various authors in the field of art …

Я полжизни (34 года) живу в Америке, где мой русский язык сегодня работает на энергии моего украинского летнего детства.

Запахи и звуки этого вечного времени и пространства питают сегодня мою вселенную, …

Digitalizing Religion In The Age Of Covid-19: A Uses And Gratifications Perspective, Abdulaziz Altawil

Dissertations - ALL

The current COVID-19 pandemic has impacted people’s religious behavior around the world. Due to the coronavirus outbreak, most in-person religious services have shifted to virtual platforms. The online religious transition amidst the outbreak has alleviated many issues for worshippers as it provided them with a sanctuary space to connect with their faith and community. According to a 2020 Pew Research analysis, the pandemic has made many Americans change their religious habits by watching religious content online instead of physically engaging with their local religious institution. This dissertation provides a preliminary examination of this phenomenon by exploring the role of digital …
