项目摘要

Introduction: HW is one of Britain's most important ancient monuments & also the most prominent of the works which defined the frontiers of the Roman empire. Its international significance is secured by a long tradition of scholarly study & its designation as a World Heritage Site. It plays a major cultural role in northern England today, signified by the use of the title 'Hadrian's Wall Country' for the central & most impressive section of its physical remains. It also plays a vital role in the economy of this region (Management Plan 2009). Owing to the scholarly study of this monument since the C16, it has become the best understood frontier of the Roman world. The major Output from this grant is a monograph which will explore the lifecycle of the Wall. This will include: c. 100,000 words, c. 70 illustrations & a 600-reference bibliography. It will communicate approaches & materials derived from the major research project, Tales of the Frontier. Arising from the historical research undertaken by the applicant (PI), it was not a specified Output from this previous grant (see case for support). Research Context: Recent books have explored the Roman construction & use of HW (e.g. Breeze 2006; Breeze & Dobson 2000 & Symonds & Mason 2009). These stress HW's elemental 'Romanness', its relative completeness & coherence as a Roman frontier work of world significance (Management Plan 2009). Its historical origin and context, constituent elements & the exactitude of detailed knowledge are emphasized (e.g. Symonds & Mason 2009). This significant body of knowledge, built up since the C16, serves to alienate HW from its post-Roman landscape and culture (Witcher et al in press). The fame of HW, recognized at least as early as the C14, has led it to play a particular cultural role, creating a rich body of artistic, mythological, antiquarian & archaeological material; recent archaeological approaches, however, sideline alternative valuations. This book explores HW's powerful & contradictory significances through time, including ideas of permanence & decay, domination & resistance, exclusion & commonality, stability & mobility. It draws on a wide variety of sources to address the life & after-life of HW, its ongoing destruction & recreation from the C2 to the C21.Methodology: The research methodology, deriving from Tales, draws on histories, handbooks, maps, excavation reports, classical texts, inscriptions, novels, poems, letters, paintings & photographs. A range of roles for the Wall are defined, in popular, mythical, artistic & scholarly accounts. To place the rise of scholarly knowledge in a broader context, mythical knowledge, folklore, literary history & art history are explored. Using a number of theoretical approaches deriving from archaeology, classics, literary studies, history & geography, the Wall's life is narrated, drawing, in particular, on approaches to monument biography, reception studies & chorography.A number of tales associated with HW are identified, including its roles as: - a symbol of Roman imperial might;- a symbol of early medieval Christian identity (Gildas & Bede);- a genealogical frontier in the medieval border conflicts between England & Scotland;- a conceptual boundary for the definition of lowland (English) 'civility';- an indicator of ancestral valour for those living to its north;- a major ancient monument which played a role in the formulation of antiquarian & archaeological methodologies;- a conceptual model for Britain's colonial frontiers in India & Africa; and - a contemporary inclusive monument for multi-cultural Britain.Audiences: Include archaeologists, classicists & cultural geographers. The book also has significance for planners & heritage managers. Posting drafts on the Tales project website will enable a range of audiences to read chapters in progress (see case for support).

简介：HW是英国最重要的古代遗迹之一，也是确定罗马帝国边界的最突出的作品。它的国际意义是由学术研究的悠久传统和它被指定为世界遗产。它在今天的英格兰北方扮演着重要的文化角色，其中心和最令人印象深刻的部分被称为“哈德良长城”。它在该地区的经济中也发挥着至关重要的作用（2009年管理计划）。由于自C16以来对这座纪念碑的学术研究，它已成为罗马世界最了解的边界。该补助金的主要产出是一本探讨长城生命周期的专著。这将包括：C。10万字C。70插图和600参考书目。它将交流来自主要研究项目“边疆故事”的方法和材料。由于申请人（PI）进行的历史研究，它不是以前资助的指定输出（见支持案例）。研究背景：最近的书籍探讨了罗马的建设和使用的HW（e.g.微风2006;微风和多布森2000和西蒙兹和梅森2009）。这些强调了HW的基本“罗马性”，其相对完整性和连贯性，作为具有世界意义的罗马边境工作（管理计划2009）。它的历史起源和背景，构成要素和详细知识的准确性被强调（例如，西蒙兹和梅森2009）。自C16以来建立的这一重要知识体系，使HW与其后罗马景观和文化疏远（Witcher et al in press）。HW的名声，至少早在C14就被认可，使其发挥了特殊的文化作用，创造了丰富的艺术，神话，古物和考古材料;然而，最近的考古方法，副业替代估价。这本书探讨了HW的强大和矛盾的意义，通过时间，包括持久与衰变，统治与阻力，排斥与共性，稳定与流动的想法。它利用各种各样的来源来解决HW的生活和来世，从C2到C21的持续破坏和娱乐。方法论：研究方法，源于故事，借鉴历史，手册，地图，挖掘报告，古典文本，铭文，小说，诗歌，信件，绘画和照片。长城的一系列角色被定义为流行的，神话的，艺术的和学术的帐户。为了将学术知识的兴起置于更广阔的背景下，神话知识，民俗，文学史和艺术史进行了探索。本文运用考古学、经典著作、文学研究、历史地理学等理论方法，对长城的历史进行了叙述，特别是借鉴了纪念碑传记、接受研究和地方志等方法，确定了与长城有关的一些故事，包括它的角色：-罗马帝国力量的象征;-中世纪早期基督教身份的象征（Gildas & Bede）;-中世纪英格兰和苏格兰边界冲突中的家谱边界;-低地（英语）“文明”定义的概念边界;-居住在其北部的人的祖先勇气的指标;-在古代和考古方法的制定中发挥作用的主要古代纪念碑;- 英国在印度和非洲殖民地边界的概念模型;以及-多元文化英国的当代包容性纪念碑。观众：包括考古学家，古典主义者和文化地理学家。这本书对规划师和遗产管理者也有重要意义。在故事项目网站上张贴草稿将使一系列受众能够阅读正在编写的章节（见支持案例）。
