项目摘要

This two-year project has proved that the Circe image plays an important role in linking the themes of navigation and nationalism in The Comedy of Errors and Pericles.The focus of the research in 2006 was on The Comedy of Errors Here the image of this classical sorceress is mixed with the biblical image of Ephesus as a place of pagan sorcery. The three Ephesian women-Adriana, Luciana, and Luce (Nell) the kitchen maid-all present features traditionally attached to Circean sorceresses. The latter two women particularly threaten the "national" identity of Antipholus and Dromio of Syracuse.In 2007 I worked mainly on Pericles. I especially examined the relationship between Circean sorceresses and Marina, who is abducted by pirates from Tarsus and is sold to a brothel in Mytilene. Her stubborn insistence on chastity apparently makes her a very different type of woman from sexually active Circe and her descendants. Circean enchantresses, however, often emasculates men they attract by their excessive sexuality. Marina can be associated with Circe in this aspect because she deprives her would-be customers of their sexual drive, though by purifying them with her speeches.Circe and her descendants threaten their victims' identity in various senses. Their national identities are under threat as well as male sexuality In this sense, the Circean threats dramatized in the two plays I examined are relevant to early modern England. Roger Ascham's The Schoolmaster and Raphael Holinshed's Chronicles compare Italy and Ireland to Circe respectively when describing these countries' dangerous attractions to Englishmen. The Circean sorceresses in The Comedy of Errors and Pericles thus locate these plays in the discourse of the fragility of the early modern English identity.

这个为期两年的项目已经证明，CIRCE图像在将导航和民族主义的主题联系起来在错误和佩里克利斯的喜剧中起着重要作用。2006年，这项研究的重点在于，此古典女巫的形象与Ephesus的圣经形象混合在一起。以弗所的三个女性 - 阿德里亚娜（Luciana）和卢斯（Nell）（内尔）的厨房女仆 - 所有现在的特色在传统上与Circean Sorceresses相关。后两名妇女特别威胁到锡拉丘兹的Antipholus和Dromio的“民族”身份。2007年，我主要从事Pericles工作。我特别研究了Circean Sorceresses和Marina之间的关系，他们被Tarsus的海盗绑架，并被出售给Mytilene的妓院。她对贞操的坚固坚持显然使她与性活跃的Circe和她的后代成为截然不同的女人。然而，《巡洋舰》杂物通常会通过过度的性行为来剥夺他们所吸引的男人。玛丽娜（Marina）可以在这方面与Circe联系在一起，因为她剥夺了潜在的客户性驱动力，尽管通过她的演讲净化他们。Circe和她的后代从各种意义上威胁了受害者的身份。从这个意义上讲，他们的民族身份既受到威胁，也受到男性性的威胁，我所检查的两部戏剧中戏剧化的曲目威胁与早期的现代英格兰有关。罗杰·阿什姆（Roger Ascham）的《校长》和《拉斐尔·霍林斯（Raphael Holinshed）的纪事》将意大利和爱尔兰分别与Circe相比，分别描述了这些国家对英国人的危险景点。因此，在错误和佩里克利斯的喜剧中，巡洋舰上的巫术将这些戏剧定位在早期现代英国身份的脆弱性的话语中。
