Gender, the Irish Diaspora and the Spatial Politics of Home in Brian Friel’s The Loves of Cass McGuire
在愛爾蘭劇作家布萊恩‧傅利爾的劇作《凱絲‧麥克吉爾的愛情故事》(1966)中,女主角凱絲結束了長達五十二年於紐約的寓居生活並選擇回歸故里,但在重返愛爾蘭與家人團聚不久之後卻陷入他鄉實非故鄉、家鄉卻是異鄉的困境。在其超過半世紀的創作生涯中,傅利爾(1929-2015)向來擅長針貶愛爾蘭的歷史問題與文化僵局,而這齣發表於生涯早期的戲劇作品則顯示出他對愛爾蘭離散議題的介入與批判。《凱絲‧麥克吉爾的愛情故事》關注愛爾蘭女性的離散經歷,並特別著重再現愛爾蘭女性離家後返家卻面臨鄉關何處的窘境。換言之,傅利爾在處理愛爾蘭離散的議題時,不僅聚焦在愛爾蘭獨立建國前後年輕女性跨國遷徙的問題,同時也著重探討愛爾蘭女性與不同時空下的家之間剪不斷理還亂的複雜關係。除此之外,此劇也呈現奠基於愛爾蘭國族主義與天主教教義的愛爾蘭性(Irishness)如何形塑了家這個社會空間的多重面向,以及在國族建構的過程中家與愛爾蘭女性的關聯。在此劇中,經由凱絲闊別數十載才返回愛爾蘭家園的故事,愛爾蘭中產階級父權概念與實踐下的家與離散女性所想像與體現的家產生矛盾與衝突。在這過程中,家已不是封閉、排外的同質空間,也不再只是一般想像中性別分工下社會再生產(social reproduction)的場域而已;事實上,家作為一種社會空間總是一個流動開放的異質空間,亦即,不同的社會實踐與介入不停地在其中形塑與顛覆對家的想像和認知、各種
身分認同與實踐、以及社會權力關係網絡。In this paper, I aim to explore the ways in which Brian Friel, in representing the Irish diaspora through the individual experiences of Cass in The Loves of Cass
McGuire (1966), addresses the spatial issues of the diasporic experiences of Irish women, especially the home of displacement in Ireland and the home of placement outside Ireland. Two versions and conceptualizations of home embodied respectively
by the Irish patriarch at home and the migrant woman away from home confront with each other upon the return migration of the latter in this play. Therefore, The Loves of
Cass McGuire stages intricate negotiations between the nationalized imaginary of home and the gendered identity of Irish women. Furthermore, as shown in this play, home not only is a private haven of homeliness but also becomes a public site of political contestation and identity formation. An unhomely/uncanny presence, returned women migrants, like Cass, eventually lapse into physical, psychological and social homelessness, and are forced to construct a homely home of their own away from the home of origin
Take a Step Up: Research on the Stone Ladders of the Peinan Site
有些人對於考古遺址出土的「石梯」真正功能仍存在疑慮,本文除了整理相關學者的討論內容外,透過對「石梯」上的使用痕進行觀察與分析,進一步佐以數位處理方式分析其作為梯子使用時的情形,再藉由統計分析針對其行為模式進行說明。
卑南遺址出土「石梯」的使用角度主要在40°-60°間,往上爬升約100-130cm,大約是半層樓的高度。藉由與臺灣原住民傳統住屋型式進行討論,卑南遺址史前建築結構可能部份與豎穴式建築的概念相似,後續或許可以結合出土石柱、砌石圈等結構現象進一步瞭解史前卑南遺址的聚落型態。There is still some question as to how exactly stone ladders unearthed from archaeological sites were used. This paper begins with an overview of this issue. The processing marks on the stone ladders is then discussed and combined with digital management to analyze how the stone ladders were used. Statistical analysis is further applied to extrapolate behavior patterns of the people who used the ladders.
The usage angle of stone ladders at the Peinan Site is mainly between 40 to 60 degrees; and the vertical height is about 100 to 130 centimeters, which is approximately the height of a half-story house. Comparing this with the traditional residential building structure types of Taiwanese indigenous people, it is highly possible that some of the prehistoric building structures of the Peinan Site were similar to pit houses. By further combination with stone pillars, masonry circles and other features unearthed, we might get to know more about the settlement pattern of the Peinan Site
The Determinants and Market Consequences of Disclosure for Forward-Looking R&D Expenditures
本研究探討影響國內企業自願揭露預計未來研發費用之因素,以及該自願性揭露是否可提高股價的資訊內涵。實證結果顯示,當公司存在較低之私有資訊成本、盈餘表現較佳、盈餘波動性較小、股份盈餘偏離倍數較低時,公司將傾向揭露其預計未來研發費用之資訊、揭露的明確度亦較高。另外,預計未來研發費用資訊之揭露可提高次期的未來盈餘反應係數,亦即能增進股票報酬與未來盈餘之間的關係。進一步發現,公司實際之研發費用與原先所揭露預期投入研發費用之差異,與次年度之股票報酬呈現顯著負相關,而此結果主要來自實際研發費用低於揭露之預計研發費用時,顯示投資人對於較不可靠的前瞻性資訊有負向反應。This study investigates the determinants and market consequences of firms’ disclosure for forward-looking R&D expenditures. Using the annual reports of listed and OTC companies in Taiwan, the results show that firms with lower proprietary information costs, better earnings performance, lower earnings volatility, and smaller divergence between voting rights and cash flow rights tend to voluntarily disclose the information of forward-looking R&D expenditures, and their disclosures tend to be more specific (precise). Moreover, the disclosure of forward-looking R&D expenditures is associated with higher future earnings response coefficient (FERC). We also find significant negative stock returns for firms whose actual R&D expenses are different from (especially lower than) the disclosed expected R&D expenses, reflecting investors’ negative reaction to forward-looking information that is not credible
