摘要哈德良长城是英国最容易辨认的古代纪念碑之一。本文探讨了创造这一标志性形象的历史和当代可视化实践。在考古学，文化地理学，遗产和旅游研究的学科之间移动，本文借鉴了各种数据源，如绘画，照片，模型和重建，以考虑如何在当代公共话语中视觉上代表长城。本文着重于数码摄影，并考虑图像创建和维持特定阅读的方式墙的功能和意义。这些当代的表现手法表现出很强的连续性，早期的图像被用来提供历史背景。重点放在纪念碑的景观设置的视觉表现和重要性，这一环境背景的阅读墙的文化和政治意义。本文件主要涉及对隔离墙的表述，但有人认为，这些表述性做法也从根本上体现出来。本研究的第二部分将更详细地考虑游客和考古学家的身体接触（巫师，即将出版）。
Abstract Hadrian’s Wall is one of the most instantly recognizable ancient monuments in the UK. This paper explores the historical and contemporary visualization practices which have created this iconic image. Moving between the disciplines of archaeology, cultural geography, and heritage and tourism studies, the paper draws upon a variety of data sources such as paintings, photographs, models, and reconstructions to consider how the Wall is visually represented within contemporary public discourse. The paper focuses on digital photography and considers the ways in which images create and sustain particular readings of the Wall’s function and significance. These contemporary representational practices demonstrate strong continuities, and earlier images are used to provide historical context. Emphasis is placed on the monument’s landscape setting in visual representations and the importance of this environmental context for readings of the Wall’s cultural and political significance. The present paper deals primarily with representations of the Wall, but it is argued that these representational practices are also fundamentally embodied. The physical encounters of visitors and archaeologists will be considered in greater detail in the second part of this study (Witcher, forthcoming).
