澳大利亚正在削减关键的文学支助,引起人们对资金和政治影响的担忧。
Australia is cutting key literary supports, sparking concern over funding and political influence.
澳大利亚作家正面临着越来越多的挑战,因为关键的支助系统——包括黑兹尔·罗利研究金、85年文学期刊《Moyanjin》和《Les Carlyon奖》——已经消失或中断,没有清楚解释。
Australian writers are facing mounting challenges as critical support systems—including the Hazel Rowley Fellowship, the 85-year-old literary journal Meanjin, and the Les Carlyon Prize—disappear or are disrupted without clear explanations.
奖学金在2026年结束,尽管有文化影响,但Meanjin因经济原因关闭,并且在资格规则被追溯后,卡莱恩奖被记者克里斯·马斯特斯拒绝获得.
The fellowship ends in 2026, Meanjin closes due to financial reasons despite its cultural impact, and the Carlyon Prize was withheld from journalist Chris Masters after eligibility rules were retroactively changed.
这些举动引起了对政治影响和系统性资金不足的关切,尤其是与像爱尔兰这样大量投资于文学的国家相比。
These moves raise concerns about political influence and systemic underfunding, especially compared to nations like Ireland that invest heavily in literature.
虽然一个新的国家机构《澳大利亚写作》为改革提供了潜力,但许多人仍然不确定该国文学支助的未来。
While a new national body, Writing Australia, offers potential for reform, many remain uncertain about the future of literary support in the country.
