Million Pictures Magic Lantern Slide

项目摘要

The magic lantern was the most important visual entertainment and means of instruction across nineteenth-century Europe. However, despite its pervasiveness across multiple scientific, educational and popular contexts, this technology remains little known to the European public. Moreover, though surviving magic lantern slides provide a massive, pan-European repository of heritage materials, encapsulating in visual form almost every conceivable facet of late nineteenth-century knowledge, this archive remains largely untapped by scholars, stakeholders and the general public. These fascinating and frequently beautiful objects are to be found in numerous local and national libraries, museums, and archives of all kinds, with some collections holding tens of thousands of lantern slides, but a lack of common standards for documentation and preservation has limited the impact of existing initiatives, and hindered the recognition of the significance of these objects. 'A Million Pictures' addresses the sustainable management of this invaluable, but overlooked, heritage resource and seeks to develop vital new tools for documentation, preservation, digitisation and re-use of lantern slides.Across four case studies, taking place in the UK, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Spain, the project investigates the use of magic lantern slides within learned societies and educational institutions as well as in popular venues (theatres, opera houses, museums and observatories) and will also investigate methods for classifying the repertoire of these shows. It will explore the needs of contemporary museums, archives, libraries, and other collections for allowing access and re-use of slide images, and will provide examples of digital re-working of slide shows as well as other forms of re-enactment. It will examine ways for people to enhance their knowledge about lantern slides and so allow them to connect to their shared European history of learning.The UK-based aspect of the project will explore three representative public collections: the Library of Birmingham, the Royal Geographic Society (RGS) in London, and the Exeter Royal Albert Memorial Museum (RAMM), with a specific focus on slide sets and associated materials during the period 1880-1914.Indeed, one would be hard pushed to find a more neglected, yet substantial, national heritage resource than the magic lantern slide material dispersed across numerous British museums, libraries and archives. Individual collections each represent a remarkably rich visual archive concerning multiple aspects of national and regional public life. The Library of Birmingham possesses an estimated collection of over 100,000 slides, accumulated from the activities of numerous educational and civic organisations that were active within this large urban and industrial centre, whose scale and significance resembles that of only a few other British collections. The RAMM provides an excellent example of a smaller regional collection, of which there are many spread across the UK, with approximately 15,000 slides derived from the various organisations active during the period in question in this cathedral and market town. The RGS was, and remains, the hub of a national network, whose collection of approximately 20,000 slides was used both within the capital and in the numerous branches of the society active within cities and towns across Britain.'A Million Pictures' will consider the different cataloguing practices as well as the different users of these three organisations. More broadly, it will publicise the scale and significance of these archives, and provide insights concerning an effective working model for their use, management, and promotion within the heritage sector more generally.

魔术灯笼是十九世纪欧洲最重要的视觉娱乐和教学手段。然而，尽管这项技术在多种科学、教育和流行背景下普遍存在，但欧洲公众对这项技术仍然知之甚少。此外，虽然幸存的魔术灯笼幻灯片提供了一个巨大的，泛欧洲的遗产材料库，以视觉形式封装了19世纪后期知识的几乎所有可以想象的方面，这个档案馆仍然在很大程度上未被学者，利益相关者和公众利用。这些迷人而美丽的物品在许多地方和国家图书馆，博物馆和各种档案馆中都可以找到，有些收藏品拥有数万个幻灯片，但缺乏统一的记录和保存标准限制了现有举措的影响，并阻碍了对这些物品重要性的认识。"百万张图片“致力于这一宝贵但被忽视的遗产资源的可持续管理，并寻求开发重要的新工具，用于记录、保存、数字化和再利用幻灯片。通过在英国、荷兰、比利时和西班牙进行的四个案例研究，该项目调查了魔术幻灯片在学术团体和教育机构以及流行场所的使用情况（剧院、歌剧院、博物馆和天文台），并将研究对这些演出的剧目进行分类的方法。它将探讨当代博物馆，档案馆，图书馆和其他收藏品的需求，以允许访问和重新使用幻灯片图像，并将提供幻灯片放映的数字化改造以及其他形式的重演的例子。它将研究如何让人们提高他们对幻灯片的知识，从而使他们能够连接到他们共同的欧洲学习历史。该项目的英国方面将探索三个有代表性的公共收藏：伯明翰图书馆、伦敦的皇家地理学会（RGS）和埃克塞特皇家阿尔伯特纪念博物馆（RAMM），特别关注1880- 1914年期间的幻灯片集和相关材料。事实上，人们很难找到比分散在众多英国博物馆中的神奇灯笼幻灯片材料更被忽视但更重要的国家遗产资源，图书馆和档案馆。每件藏品都代表了一个非常丰富的视觉档案，涉及国家和区域公共生活的多个方面。伯明翰图书馆拥有超过100，000张幻灯片的估计收藏，这些幻灯片是从许多活跃在这个大型城市和工业中心的教育和民间组织的活动中积累起来的，其规模和意义类似于只有少数其他英国收藏。RAMM提供了一个很好的例子，一个较小的区域收集，其中有许多分布在英国，约15,000幻灯片来自各种组织活跃在这一时期在这个大教堂和集镇。RGS过去是，现在仍然是一个全国网络的中心，其收集的大约20，000张幻灯片在首都和英国城镇内活跃的众多社会分支中都有使用。《百万张图片》将考虑这三个组织的不同编目做法和不同用户。更广泛地说，它将宣传这些档案的规模和重要性，并提供有关在遗产部门更广泛地使用、管理和推广这些档案的有效工作模式的见解。
