项目摘要

Robert Burns: Inventing Tradition and Securing Memory, 1796-1909 is a project which operates on three levels. On the empirical level, it provides a comprehensive web-based catalogue of public monuments to Robert Burns worldwide erected by 1909, with a selection of images from the same period, combined with a web-based classification of the different kinds of Burns-related material culture available commercially or for domestic use. These datasets will enable the whole range of images and items used in the transmission of Robert Burns' reputation into the sphere of cultural memory to be available for study or consultation in one place for the first time. This is a particularly important development, because Burns was one of the most commemorated of all poets, and the documentation of the full range of his memorialization through objects and public monuments will provide an invaluable evidence base both for analysis and for the development of similar records of other writers. The project has the support and partnership of the National Trust for Scotland Burns Birthplace Museum and is currently negotiating access to two extensive private collections of domestic Burnsiana.On a theoretical level, the project will seek to provide a model for the relationship between literary and material culture, addressing questions such as whether the choice of means of commemoration (e.g. through particular objects or depictions of the poet) has had an effect on the reputation of individual poems or approaches to the writer's life and whether literary and material culture diverge or converge in the significance they grant the reputation of the poet. It will seek to provide outcomes which can act as a basis for the examination of the use of material and commemorative culture as a formative influence in the reception, reputation and canon of other writers. On a policy level, Inventing Tradition and Securing Memory will contribute, through its work with the curator David Hopes, to the interpretation of Burns at the Robert Burns Birthplace Museum, the single most important Burns site in the world. The RBBM is in the process of final planning and development with £17M of the final £21M budget raised as of January 2009, and the current project will provide invaluable policy input at a crucial stage in the RBBM's crystallization as a major modern tourist venue. Burns is worth £157M to the Scottish economy (2003 figures), and the cutting-edge interpretation of his memorialization-itself so publicly visible in so many parts of the world-will be of great interest to the combined 100 000+ visitors a year expected at the Museum. It is expected that the dissemination of the research work to Glasgow Museums and to the Wordsworth Trust will also prove invaluable to the development of interpretative material in other venues. Inventing Tradition and Securing Memory will provide a lasting web resource, a set of scholarly outcomes, and an engagement with the wider heritage, cultural and tourist industries through established collaborative agreements. Its methodologies will include:i. The gathering of a comprehensive list of public commemorations through archives, newspapers, photograph collections and existing digital and secondary sources.ii. The intensive use of archives to create a sense of the development of commissioning, fundraising and impact of public Burns commemoration in particular instances.iii. The design of a taxonomy of domestic objects associated with Burns.iv The consideration of Burns' memorialization as a form of invention of tradition (Hobsbawm and Ranger (1983)) and its use to 'compose' memories of who the poet was and what he represented.v. Building on existing research, to establish ways in which material culture may be considered a legitimate part of the reception history of a text or author.

罗伯特·伯恩斯（Robert Burns）：发明传统和确保记忆，1796- 1909年是一个在三个层面上运作的项目。从经验层面上，它为1909年在全球架起的Robert Burns提供了全面的基于网络的公共古迹目录，并提供了同一时期的一系列图像，并结合了基于网络的基于网络的分类，可在商业上或用于家庭使用的各种类型的燃烧相关的材料文化。这些数据集将使罗伯特·伯恩斯（Robert Burns）繁殖到文化记忆的领域的整个图像和物品范围可以首次在一个地方进行研究或咨询。这是一个特别重要的发展，因为伯恩斯是所有诗人中最商业化的一位，并且通过对象和公共古迹的全部纪念活动的文档将为分析和开发其他作家的相似记录提供宝贵的证据基础。 project has the support and partnership of the National Trust for Scotland Burns Birthplace Museum and is currently negotiating access to two extensive private collections of domestic Burnsiana.On a theoretical level, the project will seek to provide a model for the relationship between literary and material culture, addressing questions such as whether the choice of means of commemoration (e.g. through particular objects or descriptions of the poet) has had an effect on the reputation of individual poems or approaches to the作家的生活以及文学和物质文化是否存在分歧或汇聚在他们赋予诗人声誉的意义上。它将寻求提供结果，可以作为研究物质和纪念文化的使用作为在接待，审查和其他作家的佳能中的形成性影响的基础。从政策层面上讲，发明传统和确保记忆将通过与策展人David希望的合作来贡献在罗伯特·伯恩斯出生地博物馆（Robert Burns Hairtplace Museum）的解释，这是世界上最重要的伯恩斯遗址。卢比在最终计划和开发过程中，截至2009年1月提出的最终预算的1700万英镑，目前的项目将在皇家银行（RBBM）作为主要的现代旅游场所的结晶中的关键阶段提供宝贵的政策投入。伯恩斯对苏格兰经济的价值为1.57亿英镑（2003年的数字），对他的纪念活动 - 在全球许多地区如此公开可见的最先进的解释对博物馆预计的一年中总共100万名游客引起了极大的兴趣。预计将研究工作传播给格拉斯哥博物馆和华兹华斯信托基金会也将证明这对于在其他场所的发展材料的发展非常宝贵。发明传统和确保记忆将提供持久的网络资源，一组学术成果以及通过既定的合作协议与更广泛的遗产，文化和旅游行业的互动。它的方法将包括：i。通过档案，报纸，照片收藏以及现有的数字和次要来源来收集全面的公共纪念活动清单。在特定情况下，大量使用档案来创造一种纪念公众烧伤的筹款，筹款和影响的感觉。III。与Burn相关的家庭对象的分类学。IV考虑伯恩斯的记忆是传统事件的一种形式（Hobsbawm and Ranger（1983））及其对诗人是谁以及他代表的内容的“构成”记忆的用法。在现有研究的基础上，建立可以将物质文化视为文本或作者接收历史的合法部分的方式。
