While digital technologies were initially seen as harbingers of globalization, scholars increasingly acknowledge their role in the rise of nationalism. This paper argues that the policies and practices of the Digital Repository of Ireland (DRI) simultaneously resonate with national as well as global opportunities in light of the vision of Global Ireland 2025. As a trusted national digital repository for Ireland’s humanities, the DRI can be a celebration of the Abbey Theater collection as a prototype of these national and global opportunities. This paper outlines the earlier attempt of the Abbey Theater Digitizing Archive Project at the National University of Ireland, Galway’s library (NUIG) and its limitations, as well as the policies and Practices of open access, collaboration, and metadata management in the Digital Repository of Ireland. In doing so, the paper draws on the conceptual framework in light of Global Ireland's objectives and the publications of some of the stakeholders and directors of the DRI, such as Sha- ron Webb and Aileen O’Carroll. The outcomes of this paper are that the DRI globally contributes to representing the national position of Abbey Theatre by ingesting and visualizing the scenes that express the Irish struggle for freedom and identity, illuminating the importance of Irish literary discourse over time and place. Also, the use of the interdisciplinary approach uncovers how the use of digital tools highlights the opportunities that the DRI can offer to disseminate, discover, and visualize the dramatic performances of Abbey Theatre as an Irish literary heritage and as an essential part of the Irish national canon.
虽然数字技术最初被视为全球化的先兆，但学者们越来越认识到它们在民族主义兴起中的作用。本文认为，根据全球爱尔兰2025的愿景，爱尔兰数字存储库(DRI)的政策和实践同时与国家和全球机会产生共鸣。作为爱尔兰人文学科值得信赖的国家数字资源库，DRI可以作为艾比剧院收藏的庆祝活动，作为这些国家和全球机会的原型。本文概述了爱尔兰国立大学高威图书馆(NUIG)艾比剧院数字化档案项目的早期尝试及其局限性，以及爱尔兰数字存储库中开放获取、协作和元数据管理的政策和实践。在此过程中，本文借鉴了全球爱尔兰的目标和DRI的一些利益相关者和董事的出版物的概念框架，如Sha- ron Webb和Aileen O 'Carroll。本文的结果是，DRI通过吸收和可视化表达爱尔兰人争取自由和身份的场景，在全球范围内有助于代表阿比剧院的国家地位，阐明了爱尔兰文学话语随时间和地点的重要性。此外，跨学科方法的使用揭示了数字工具的使用如何突出DRI可以提供的机会，传播、发现和可视化艾比剧院的戏剧表演，作为爱尔兰文学遗产和爱尔兰国家经典的重要组成部分。

Spirituality and the occult represent important aspects of Maud Gonne’s life and writings, and their investigation offers an unusual perspective on this famous icon of revolutionary Ireland. Her memoir and letters to Yeats testify to a lasting relationship with “the spirit world” in as diverse forms as Celtic mysticism, occult practices, psychic phenomena, and the Catholic faith. By investigating her syncretic spirituality and the role this dimension played in her political activism, this contribution intends to expand our understanding of Gonne as an autobiographer; while the written self could “lose all sense of proportion” (Gonne, Yeats 1993, 238) the writer of the self carefully arranged episodes and memories into a plot, the story of a Bildung and of a life’s mission.

Critics have suggested that Sebastian Barry’s works provide a platform for omitted narratives within the Irish story. While I agree, I argue that Barry goes further, presenting the readers with a “structural paradigm” for understanding political identity. Grounded in Socratic thought, this paradigm establishes the connection between citizen and state, whereby the internal order of a state is directly linked to the internal order of its citizens. In the absence of such ordered citizens, the state is unlikely to possess a cohesive identity. For Barry, individual self-awareness is requisite for Ireland’s establishment of a unified identity. This Socratic “roadmap” towards understanding political identity is best seen in the turbulent nature of the principal characters in A Long Long Way, On Canaan’s Side, and The Temporary Gentleman.

The Artemis Fowl series (2001-2012) is described by its Irish author Eoin Colfer as “Die Hard with Fairies”. Artemis Fowl is an-eight book series of adventures and supernatural actions. The starring character, Artemis Fowl, is a twelve-year- old criminal mastermind. His primary goal is to pursue money, which makes him kidnap the fairy leader. This results in a continuing fight between two worlds: Artemis’s and the fairies’. The Fowl adventures present many themes, of which gendered discourses and actor representation inspire this research. This paper examines the eight-series child books via Corpus Linguistics apparatus. AntConc is a corpus analysis software utilized to generate wordlists of each book so that words with higher frequency may be investigated in their context of utterance via the concordance toolkit. The next step aims to detect the occurrence of search terms pertaining to gendered discourse and actor description. In this concern, the contributions presented by Tannen (1993, 1999), Edley (2001), Weatherall and Gallois (2003), Sunderland (2004), and Wetherell and Edley (2014) are considered in the detection of gendered language. Van Leeuwen’s taxonomy (1996, 2008) of social actor representation is also considered to detect actor descriptions. Accordingly, the eight-series adventure novels are linguistically analyzed so that the main themes, gender identity markers and actor representation may be uncovered. The study supports the discursive psychologists’ belief that gender is created and enhanced via discourse. The study is original in incorporating corpus linguistic toolkits, discursive psychology and discourse analysis to child Irish fantasy literature to expose the gendered-identities negotiated and the features representing social actors.
阿耳特弥斯·菲尔系列(2001-2012)被爱尔兰作家约恩·科尔弗描述为“虎胆龙威”。《阿耳特弥斯·法尔》是一部八卷的冒险和超自然行为系列小说。主角阿尔忒弥斯·法尔是一个12岁的犯罪策划者。他的主要目标是追求金钱，这使得他绑架了仙女首领。这导致了阿尔忒弥斯和仙女两个世界之间的持续斗争。费尔历险记呈现了许多主题，其中性别话语和演员表现启发了本研究。本文利用语料库语言学仪器对八系儿童读物进行了研究。AntConc是一个语料库分析软件，用于生成每本书的词表，以便通过协和工具包在其话语上下文中调查频率较高的词。下一步的目标是检测与性别话语和演员描述相关的搜索词的出现。在这方面，在性别语言的检测中考虑了Tannen(1993,1999)、Edley(2001)、Weatherall and Gallois(2003)、Sunderland(2004)和Wetherell and Edley(2014)的贡献。Van Leeuwen的社会行动者表征分类法(1996,2008)也被用来检测行动者描述。据此，对八部系列冒险小说进行语言分析，揭示其主题、性别认同标记和演员表现。该研究支持了话语心理学家的观点，即性别是通过话语创造和增强的。本研究首次将语料库、语言工具、话语心理学和话语分析结合到爱尔兰儿童奇幻文学中，揭示了儿童奇幻文学中性别身份的协商和社会行动者的特征。

Irish immigration to Bolivia has been largely ignored by academia. However, although few in number, it has exerted its influence both in the country itself and in the cause of Irish nationalism. Whether they arrived with General Bolívar’s liberating troops or collaborated in the development of the nation through their work in mining, commercial or railway companies, their contribution was significant. They were also important in the fields of culture, the press and domestic politics. Despite the political instability of the Andean country and the obstruction of the British Empire, they have left a mark that I intend to show in this article.

After its intense phase of insularity, Ireland has reached a considerable diplomatic role. The past vulnerability of Ireland due to its subjection to colonialism made its domestic sphere and foreign agenda in the early 1920s insular. However, Ireland started to transcend its isolation as it showed more openness to the world in the mid-twentieth century. More specifically, Dublin, in the post-World War II context, began to exhibit its interest in having a more dynamic role in the international scene. In fact, Ireland displayed its engagement with matters that exceeded its domestic sphere through its membership in the United Nations. Its performance in such an Intergovernmental Organization unveiled the Irish devotion to principles like peace-keeping and collective security. This article aims to assess Ireland’s dynamic role, which started to appear in the mid-twentieth century. Besides, the late-twentieth century was also a significant phase for Dublin and its international presence. This epoch was characterized by Ireland’s integration into the European region. Most importantly, the phenomenon of globalization reached its peak at that time, and Ireland witnessed an unprecedented experience of economic opulence known as the Celtic Tiger. Focus should also be laid on Dublin’s interesting development in such a globalized climate. Its remarkable evolution, especially in the 1990s, tends to be considered a “model” for other small European and non-European states. Therefore, this paper attempts to scrutinize the extent to which other small states can learn from the example of Ireland.
