项目摘要

The proposed project brings together two lead partners, University College London (UCL) and the National Maritime Museum (NMM), together with project partners (The Royal Society (RS), the National Portrait Gallery (NPG), the Natural History Museum (NHM), and the British Museum (BM)) to develop a network of scholars and institutions to research Joseph Banks (1743-1820), botanist on the voyage of Captain Cook and president of the Royal Society. We propose four international study events (three workshops and a conference) assessing Banks's career and his significance in the making of the Indo-Pacific world. These four events will bring together international scholars and stakeholders working on different Indo-Pacific regions and in different disciplines: anthropology, history of art, imperial studies, maritime history and the history of science. The four events will be as follows:1) an invited workshop, at UCL, will concentrate on historiography of Banks and the relationship between science, culture and the Indo-Pacific region in Banks's time.2) an invited workshop, at NMM, will assess Bank's maritime collecting and networks, his advocacy of oceanic exploration and his role in increasing European trade, missionary endeavours and political activity in the Indian and Pacific Oceans.3) an invited workshop, at the NPG, will consider representations of Banks in portraiture and satirical prints, and the role of imagery and art in the ways the Indo-Pacific World and Europe were represented to one another in Banks's time.4) a conference, at the Royal Society, will be a much larger gathering open to the public, building on the previous workshops to debate Banks's role and legacies in linking together regions of the Indian and Pacific Oceans to form a new expanse of scientific interest and commercial and colonial exploitation. Furthermore, to complement two of the workshops, the NHM and BM will host curator-led study visits and viewings of relevant Banks-related collections for the workshop attendees. The network's research outputs will also feed into public-facing activities at NMM, NPG, and other project partner institutions. A Steering Committee, consisting of the lead and project partners cited above, will oversee the four events between May 2016 and Autumn 2017. The goal of the network is to present Banks to both academic and public audiences, so that his role in British exploration, empire, and science is better appreciated, debated, and open to critical inquiry. We anticipate that the network will lead to a bid for a larger grant in 2017.

拟议的项目汇集了两个主要合作伙伴，伦敦大学学院（UCL）和国家海事博物馆（NMM），以及项目合作伙伴（皇家学会（RS）、国家肖像画廊（NPG）、自然历史博物馆（NHM）和大英博物馆（BM））建立一个学者和机构网络，研究约瑟夫·班克斯（1743-1820），库克船长航行中的植物学家，皇家学会会长。我们提出了四个国际研究活动（三个研讨会和一个会议）评估银行的职业生涯和他在印度太平洋世界的重要性。这四项活动将汇集不同印度太平洋地区和不同学科的国际学者和利益相关者：人类学，艺术史，帝国研究，海洋史和科学史。这四项活动如下：1）在伦敦大学学院举办的特邀研讨会将集中讨论班克斯的史学以及班克斯时代科学，文化和印度-太平洋地区之间的关系。2）在NMM举办的特邀研讨会将评估班克斯的海洋收集和网络，他对海洋探索的倡导以及他在增加欧洲贸易，传教事业和印度洋和太平洋政治活动中的作用。3）在NPG举办的特邀研讨会将考虑班克斯在肖像画和讽刺版画中的表现，以及图像和艺术在班克斯时代印度-太平洋世界和欧洲相互代表的方式中的作用。这将是一个向公众开放的更大的聚会，在以前的研讨会的基础上，讨论银行在连接印度洋和太平洋地区以形成新的科学兴趣和商业和殖民开发领域中的作用和遗产。此外，为了补充其中两个研讨会，NHM和BM将为研讨会与会者举办策展人领导的研究访问和相关银行相关收藏品的观看。该网络的研究成果还将纳入NMM、NPG和其他项目伙伴机构面向公众的活动。由上述牵头机构和项目合作伙伴组成的指导委员会将在2016年5月至2017年秋季期间监督这四项活动。该网络的目标是向学术界和公众展示班克斯，以便他在英国探索，帝国和科学中的作用得到更好的赞赏，辩论和开放的批判性调查。我们预计，该网络将导致在2017年获得更大的赠款。
