Ways Seeing English Domestic Interior

项目摘要

This network brings together researchers in the humanities and sciences, conservators, museums curators and heritage professionals to address a central research question: how would people have experienced and engaged with the visual and material properties of the domestic interior in early modern England, and how might we analyse and represent those experiences in the present. To focus this network we have selected decorative textiles with figurative imagery as a case study because these objects raise particular questions about the dynamics of perception: narrative (reading), visual (form and colour) and material (texture). Decorative textiles were the most ubiquitous form of domestic furnishing in early modern England but few survive and the extant objects present significant challenges for interpretation, conservation, display and presentation (for example, they are particularly vulnerable to damage and surface deterioration caused by light and touch). As well as accommodating the practical needs of everyday life, domestic interiors of any size during the period 1500-1700 were decorated and furnished to express a range of concerns including wealth, identity, belief, education, gender, taste and fashion. Yet scholarship and museum practice has focused overwhelmingly on describing the form, techniques and appearance of domestic buildings and furnishings without probing the culturally-specific and multi-sensory forms of perception that informed interpretation and experience of this environment. It is therefore necessary to establish a dedicated research network to investigate ways of studying how contemporaries would have perceived and engaged with their material surroundings.This subject requires sustained multi-disciplinary investigation because of the extent of its implications for academic research, museums practice and public impact. Understanding the domestic context for everyday life is not only an emergent area of academic attention and debate, it is also a central interest of visitors to museums and historic properties who want to gain a meaningful experience of period interiors based on current understanding of their physical and conceptual authenticity. Through a series of workshops, a conference, special issue of a leading academic journal and series of podcasts, this network aims to facilitate innovative and collaborative cross-disciplinary approaches to researching the history of the domestic interior and inform new directions for display and presentation.The network crosses the boundaries between Humanities and Science disciplines to exchange knowledge about historical artefacts and environments and explore the possible applications of new expertise, technologies and methods in psychology, neuroscience, computing and digital archaeology, which enable investigation of the specificity of visual perception in relation to particular objects and settings (for example, new developments in mobile eye-tracking) and through the digital reconstruction and simulation of historic environments. The network comprises 17 experts including researchers on domestic interiors and/or textiles in the disciplines of English, History, Art history and Archaeology; researchers on visual perception in the cognitive sciences; computer scientists; conservators, curators and heritage professionals who are also researchers in this area. We will also engage postgraduate students starting work in this field in workshop activities and in progressing the impact aims. The network facilitates exchange across 14 institutions including 6 universities and 7 national and regional museums.

该网络汇集了人文和科学，保护者，博物馆馆长和遗产专业人士的研究人员，以解决一个中心的研究问题：人们如何体验和参与现代早期英格兰国内室内的视觉和材料特性，以及我们如何分析和代表这些经验。为了聚焦这一网络，我们选择了具有象征性意象的装饰性纺织品作为案例研究，因为这些物品提出了关于感知动态的特定问题：叙事（阅读），视觉（形式和颜色）和材料（纹理）。装饰纺织品是现代早期英格兰最普遍的家居装饰形式，但很少有幸存下来的，现存的物品在解释，保护，展示和展示方面面临着重大挑战（例如，它们特别容易受到光和触摸造成的损坏和表面劣化）。除了满足日常生活的实际需求外，1500-1700年间，任何规模的室内装饰都表达了一系列关注，包括财富，身份，信仰，教育，性别，品味和时尚。然而，学术界和博物馆的实践绝大多数都集中在描述国内建筑和家具的形式，技术和外观，而没有探索文化特定的和多感官的感知形式，这些感知形式为这种环境的解释和体验提供了信息。因此，有必要建立一个专门的研究网络，探讨当代人如何感知和参与他们的物质环境。这个主题需要持续的多学科研究，因为它对学术研究，博物馆实践和公众影响的影响范围。了解日常生活的国内背景不仅是学术关注和辩论的一个新兴领域，也是博物馆和历史遗产参观者的核心兴趣，他们希望在当前对其物理和概念真实性的理解的基础上获得有意义的室内体验。通过一系列讲习班、一次会议、一份主要学术期刊的特刊和一系列播客，该网络旨在促进创新和协作的跨-该网络跨越了人文学科和科学学科之间的界限，交流有关历史文物和环境的知识，并探索新的专门知识、技术和方法在心理学、神经科学、计算和数字考古学中的可能应用，从而能够调查与特定物体和环境有关的视觉感知的特殊性（例如，移动的眼球跟踪的新发展），并通过数字重建和模拟历史环境。该网络由17名专家组成，其中包括英语，历史，艺术史和考古学学科的国内室内设计和/或纺织品研究人员;认知科学中的视觉感知研究人员;计算机科学家;保护者，策展人和遗产专业人士，他们也是这一领域的研究人员。我们还将让在这一领域开始工作的研究生参加讲习班活动，并推动实现影响目标。该网络促进了14个机构之间的交流，包括6所大学和7个国家和地区博物馆。
