摘要

有许多地方被指定为受欢迎和/或官方使用的岛屿，这些地方不符合其被水包围的陆地区域的既定定义。在讨论了英国六种被错误描述的岛屿后，本文以康沃尔郡的圣艾夫斯岛为例进行了研究。讨论延伸到该地区岛屿名称的可能历史原因，以及该名称是如何在通用、地名以及旅游和产品推广中长期存在的。案例研究强调，在当地环境中，感知孤岛的情感方面比对严格地理定义的忠诚更重要。

St Ives Island: The persistent mischaracterisation of a Cornish headland

There are various locations designated as islands in popular and/or official usage that do not conform to the established definition of their being areas of land surrounded by water. After a discussion of the six types of mischaracterised islands in England, this short article provides a case study of one such location, St Ives Island, in the county of Cornwall. Discussion extends to possible historical causes of the area’s island designation and how this designation has been perpetuated in common usage, place naming and in tourism and product promotion. The case study highlights that the affective aspect of perceived islandness is more important in local contexts than fidelity to strict geographic definitions.
