Hakluyt 400 Commemorative Series Enhance

项目摘要

2016 marks the 400th anniversary not only of Shakespeare's death but that of his contemporary, Richard Hakluyt, the key exponent of commercial and colonial expansion in the period. The program of events outlined here will greatly increase public awareness of the expanding world in the sixteenth century, the books and maps that informed this vision (and gave meaning to plays like Othello and The Tempest). The 400th anniversary of Hakluyt's death on 23 November 2016 provides a timely and unique opportunity to organize a series of free-to-attend knowledge exchange events, of exhibitions, workshops/symposia, lectures, and outward-facing publications. Running from October-December 2016, the Hakluyt@400 series is designed to enable attendees from wide and diverse backgrounds to understand and appreciate the importance of Hakluyt's editorial work to promote English overseas exploration, trade, and expansion, especially through understanding the significance of his collection of accounts of exploration, The Principal Navigations ... of the English Nation (1589; 2nd ed. 1598-1600). The impact and engagement program derive from a research project to produce the first-ever scholarly edition of Hakluyt's landmark publication, The Principal Navigations (1598-1600), with a team of 35 international scholars under the leadership of Prof. Claire Jowitt (PI) and Prof. Daniel Carey (CI) (the research has been previously supported by an AHRC Network Grant AH/L000687/1., and see also the project website http://www.hakluyt.org/). The project was inaugurated in 2008 with an international, publicly accessible conference on 'Richard Hakluyt (c.1552-1616): life, times, legacy' held at the National Maritime Museum, and is now reaching maturity with the first volumes scheduled for publication in 2017-. A key aim of the Hakluyt @400 series is to make publically available the scholarship informing the edition through exhibitions, lectures, and symposia. The series of events for autumn 2016 are organized in partnership with the Hakluyt Society, in particular with Anthony Payne, Vice President of the Society, Honorary Research Fellow at UEA, and the new edition's Textual Editor. Other project partners include Christ Church, the Museum of the History of Science, and the Bodleian Library, Oxford. Hakluyt published accounts by explorers, traders, and diplomats, well-known and obscure, as he sought to include the most up-to-date information about places, peoples, and commodities around the world, and about technical, navigational, and scientific developments. He was also a pioneer himself in the history of the book, introducing the genre of the travel writing collection to Anglophone readers, by assembling new and original information from his extensive range of contacts around the world, and editing, translating, and shaping this material for his readers. This vast body of material established a framework supportive of English commercial and colonial expansion: his project literally brought knowledge of the whole world into one book. The research shows the significance of Hakluyt's editorial labours in developing the nation's actual and anticipated role in a global economy. The objective of the Hakluyt@400 series is to foster knowledge exchange through a range of public activities showcasing Hakluyt's importance in English history and his cultural and scientific legacies. Activities range from stunningly-housed exhibitions (at Christ Church and the Bodleian Library, Oxford) that include visually arresting early modern maps, books, and manuscripts; to hands-on workshops where attendees will discover how to use Elizabethan astrolabes and chronometers (the cutting-edge technology of the day); public lectures by prominent broadcasters; and finally, 400 years almost to the day that Hakluyt was buried in Westminster Abbey, a commemorative service on 27 November 2016 and unveiling of a wall plaque in Hakluyt's honour at Wetheringsett, his final parish.

2016年不仅是莎士比亚逝世400周年，也是与他同时代的理查德·哈克卢伊特（Richard Hakluyt）逝世400周年，他是那个时期商业和殖民扩张的主要代表人物。这里概述的事件计划将极大地提高公众对16世纪不断扩大的世界的认识，这些书籍和地图为这一愿景提供了信息（并赋予了《奥赛罗》和《暴风雨》等戏剧意义）。2016年11月23日是Hakluyt逝世400周年，这为组织一系列免费参加的知识交流活动、展览、讲习班/专题讨论会、讲座和面向外部的出版物提供了及时和独特的机会。从2016年10月至12月，Hakluyt@400系列旨在使来自广泛和不同背景的与会者了解和欣赏Hakluyt编辑工作对促进英语海外探索，贸易和扩张的重要性，特别是通过了解他收集的探索账户的意义，主要导航…英国民族的历史（1589年；1598-1600年第二版）。影响和参与计划源于一个研究项目，该项目是由克莱尔·乔伊特教授（PI）和丹尼尔·凯里教授（CI）领导的35名国际学者组成的团队制作的第一个学术版本的哈克鲁伊特的里程碑式出版物，主要导航（1598-1600）（该研究之前得到了AHRC网络资助AH/L000687/1的支持）。，并参阅项目网站http://www.hakluyt.org/)。该项目于2008年在国家海事博物馆举行了一次国际公开会议，题为“理查德·哈克卢伊特（c.1552-1616）：生活，时代，遗产”，该项目目前已趋于成熟，第一卷计划于2017年出版。《Hakluyt @400》系列的一个关键目标是，通过展览、讲座和专题讨论会，向公众提供为该版本提供信息的奖学金。2016年秋季的一系列活动是与Hakluyt协会合作组织的，特别是与该协会副主席，东英吉利大学荣誉研究员Anthony Payne以及新版的文本编辑合作。其他项目合作伙伴包括基督教堂、科学史博物馆和牛津大学博德利图书馆。哈克卢伊特出版了探险家、商人和外交官的著作，这些著作有知名的，也有不知名的，因为他试图将有关世界各地的地点、民族和商品的最新信息，以及有关技术、航海和科学发展的最新信息包括在内。他自己也是书籍史上的先驱，通过从他在世界各地广泛的接触中收集新的和原始的信息，并为他的读者编辑，翻译和塑造这些材料，向英语读者介绍旅行写作集的类型。这个庞大的材料体系建立了一个支持英国商业和殖民扩张的框架：他的计划实际上是将整个世界的知识整合到一本书中。研究表明，在发展国家在全球经济中的实际作用和预期作用方面，哈克鲁伊特的编辑劳动具有重要意义。Hakluyt@400系列的目的是通过一系列的公共活动来促进知识交流，展示哈克鲁伊在英国历史上的重要性以及他的文化和科学遗产。活动范围从令人惊叹的展览（在基督教堂和牛津大学博德利图书馆），包括视觉上引人注目的早期现代地图，书籍和手稿；在实践研讨会上，与会者将发现如何使用伊丽莎白时代的星盘和计时器（当时的尖端技术）；著名广播员的公开讲座；2016年11月27日，在他最后的教区Wetheringsett举行了一场纪念仪式，为纪念Hakluyt，一堵墙上的牌匾揭幕。
