世纪后半叶,灯笼讲座业务以多种方式多样化。在一种文化规模的顶端是“受欢迎的演讲者”--无论他们去哪里,都可以依靠他们来填补场地,他们占据了一个越来越被名人话语所主导的市场。这些讲师不仅要参观通常的教学机构,还要参观主要的市政霍尔斯、剧院和音乐霍尔斯,他们经常进行国内和国际的图尔斯之旅,这种规模的企业通常需要一个由代理商、经理人和经理人组成的支持网络。这篇文章考虑了三个这样的机构的工作,他们的网络在50多年的时间里融入了英语世界的大部分地区:美国的詹姆斯·庞德少校的演讲局,英国的杰拉尔德·克里斯蒂的演讲社,以及R.S.以及卡莱尔·斯迈思的演讲管理业务,业务范围从南非延伸到新西兰。从19世纪50年代开始,美国和英国出现了集中式的流行演讲系统,文章然后讨论了19世纪60年代和20世纪20年代之间这三个企业的出现和合并,认为他们应该被视为全球名人灯笼演讲贸易的关键动员者。本文首次描述了灯笼业务这方面的全球基础,并考虑了跨国际灯笼文化的高地位演讲实践的重要性。
The lantern lecturing business diversified in a number of ways in the second half of the nineteenth century. At the top end of one kind of cultural scale were the ‘popular lecturers’ – speakers who could be relied upon to fill venues wherever they travelled and who occupied a market increasingly dominated by discourses of celebrity. These lecturers tended to visit not only the usual run of lecturing institutes but also major town halls, theatres, and concert halls, and they frequently embarked on both national and international tours, a scale of enterprise that usually necessitated a support network comprising agencies, managers, and impresarios. This article considers the work of three such agencies, whose networks incorporated much of the Anglophone world for over five decades: Major James Pond’s lecture bureau in the United States, Gerald Christy’s Lecture Agency in Britain, and R.S. and Carlyle Smythe’s lecture management business, which stretched from South Africa to New Zealand. Beginning by tracing the emergence of centralised popular lecturing systems in the United States and Britain from the 1850s, the article then discusses the emergence and consolidation of these three businesses between the 1860s and 1920s, arguing that they should be regarded as key mobilisers of the global trade in celebrity lantern lecturing. The article describes for the first time the global foundations for this aspect of the lantern business, and considers the importance of high status lecturing practices across international lantern cultures.
