E.E. Fournier d’Albe’s Fin de siècle: Science,Nationalism and Monistic Philosophy in Britain and Ireland     

Ian B. Stewart 《Cultural and Social History》2017,14(5):599-620

The fin de siècle witnessed radical shifts in the intellectual and cultural landscapes of the British Isles in the context of a general revolt against Victorian values. E. E. Fournier d’Albe – physicist, spiritualist, inventor and Pan-Celticist – personified the ability of intellectuals to latch onto and advance new trends, made available by the emergent intellectual pluralism. Like many contemporaries he rejected traditional religion, but he also disdained scientific materialism, and sought a deeper metaphysical meaning to life, pursued through his various interests. Influenced by the totalising theories of figures like Herbert Spencer and Ernst Haeckel, Fournier concocted his own brand of scientific monism, rejecting materialism, embracing spiritualism, and ever optimistic in the notion of scientific progress, even in the wake of the carnage of the Great War. The article aims to give Fournier a fuller historical treatment, allowing his story to add to understanding of the milieus in which he lived and operated, and revealing how his monistic philosophy incorporated some of the disparate cultural strands explored by intellectuals in the fin de siècle reaction against conventional Victorian ideals.  相似文献   

“Save our students”: contesting discourses of racist attacks against Indians down under     

Purba Das 《亚洲交流杂志》2016,26(1):1-13

This paper seeks to understand the dominant civic discourses of accusation of racism leveled against the Australians as expressed by the victims of racist attacks and Indian Government officials in the Times of India and Outlook India news magazines. The aim of the paper is to understand how the logics of the discourses have constituted the racially motivated attacks on the Indian diaspora in Australia, and how the nationalistic sentiments are fostered among the diasporic Indians and the Indians in India. The paper argues that there is a mutual production of diasporic and homeland nationalism in the face of a crisis that hits the Indian diaspora in Australia. This analysis also brings to fore the ideology of multiculturalism in Australia.  相似文献   

The “sacred” standing for the “fallen” spirits: Yasukuni Shrine and memory of war     

JongHwa Lee 《Journal of International and Intercultural Communication》2016,9(4):368-388

This essay examines the rhetoric/politics of Yasukuni Shrine as an experiential memory-scape, a material and discursive ground to frame and enact banal patriotism and militant nationalism. As a powerful mnemonic and rhetorical institution, Yasukuni Shrine (re)produces a nationalistic narrative and identity by (con)fusing natural feelings of individual grief and cultural tradition of commemoration with national heritage of banal patriotism. By (con)fusing what is “particular” and “universal,” Yasukuni Shrine establishes its rhetorical ground to justify a “banal” sense of patriotism that slips into the “ordinary yet honorable” fervor of militant nationalism, while effectively evading its moral/ethical reflexivity.  相似文献   

Propaganda and Censorship for the 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games: The Internal Politics of Ceausescu     

Simona Petracovschi 《国际体育史杂志》2016,33(16):2046-2058

The aim of this paper is to present an overview of the USSR boycott of the 1984 Olympic Games and Nicolae Ceausescu’s decision to send the Romanian Olympic team to Los Angeles, from an internal politics perspective. All the existing analyses study the situation from the perspective of international relations but the aim of this paper is to analyze the ways that Ceausescu incorporates this decision into his own ideology and how the Romanian people were informed. The sports news was published in the newspaper Sportul and some in Scanteia (‘The Official Newspaper of the Central Committee of the Romanian Communist Parti’). We will analyze all the relevant material from January until the end of August 1984 and will focus on the characteristics of propaganda and censorship used to convince the population about Ceausescu’s reasons to participate at the Olympic Games despite the situation. Dominated by the idea of a ‘multilateral developed society’, Ceausescu incorporated sport as part of this ideology and in the case of the 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games, he manipulated the population through the media in a particular manner, centred on his ‘cult of personality’.  相似文献

1957-1966:报刊民族主义话语的褊狭性     

田中阳 《湖南大众传媒职业技术学院学报》2007,7(5):5-9

首先,只说西方发达国家的"坏",只说自己的"好",说"坏"说得一无是处,黑暗无比,说"好"说得无一不是,无一瑕疵;其次,"居天下之中心"的思想,都是1957-1966年我国报刊话语的重要的言说内容;按照阶级斗争的观点来阐释民族问题,认为"民族问题的实质是阶级问题",则是此一时期报刊话语关于民族问题的一个基本理论观点。  相似文献

教育作为一种文化 ,实质上蕴涵着教育的文化价值的判断和选择问题。考察教育、文化、价值、选择以及它们之间的关系 ,当属教育哲学的使命。文化差异性的影响和教育文化的价值迷失 ,在某些时候或某些地方往往表现出文化教育上的教条主义及狭隘的民族主义。只有坚持文化相对主义和本真的教育理念 ,恪守以人为本 ,时时反省人的存在和价值准则 ,执著于个体人的全面发展和全体人的共同发展 ,才能以健全的理性澄清这种教条主义和狭隘的民族主义。  相似文献

民族主义与二十世纪的战争   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  

赵文亮 《河南师范大学学报(哲学社会科学版)》2003,30(4):106-109

民族主义与20世纪的战争有不解之缘。但在不同时期、不同国家和不同类型的民族主义对战争所起的作用存在着重大差异：帝国主义各国民族主义的恶性膨胀导致了两次世界大战，使人类饱受了史无前例的战争浩劫；殖民地半殖民地的民族主义推动了席卷亚非拉的民族解放战争的广泛开展，打碎了西方的殖民体系，广大殖民地半殖民地纷纷取得民族独立；二战后第三世界的民族主义导致了战后频繁的地区冲突和局部战争，成为世界动荡、威胁世界和平的重要因素。  相似文献   

Progress and the people: histories of mass education and conceptions of Britishness, 1870–1914     

Christopher Bischof 《History of education》2020,49(2):160-183

ABSTRACT

This article argues that the history of mass education as it was written in Great Britain between 1870 and 1914 became an important site for debating what it meant to be British and the nature of progress. In particular, it explores different perspectives on when and where to begin a history of mass education, whom or what to make central to it, and what guidance the past offered for the future. Disagreements over these seemingly narrow questions reflected broader disagreements about what it meant to be British (including whether there was a deep-seated national character at all); the nature of the union; and how and why progress happened.  相似文献
