这篇文章探讨了位于布里斯托的大不列颠号和致力于此的遗产产业。它批判性地审视了位于船内的博物馆如何通过充当英国集体记忆的容器,让游客对英国殖民主义的历史“感觉良好”。它探讨了展览中的关键叙事是如何构成一个情感之旅的希望,一个更美好的未来,主要是围绕英国人在世纪中期到澳大利亚的旅程。有人认为,这是不再可以接受的公共遗产机构,如党卫军大不列颠,继续代表英国殖民历史作为一个航程的经济和个人发现的白色定居者。
This article explores the Bristol‐based ss Great Britain and the heritage industry dedicated to it. It critically examines how the museum, which is based within the ship itself, allows visitors to ‘feel good’ about the history of British colonialism by acting as a container for British collective memory. It examines how the key narrative in the exhibition is structured as an affective journey of hope for a better future based primarily around the journey of British people to Australia in the mid‐nineteenth century. It is argued that it is no longer acceptable that public heritage institutions, such as the ss Great Britain, continue to represent British colonial history as a voyage of economic and personal discovery for white settlers.
