项目摘要
From 1941 to 1944, the Nazis murdered perhaps 80,000 people, mostly Jews, in a small concentration camp in the suburbs of Lviv, Ukraine called Janowska. The camp also served as an indispensable accomplice in deporting and exterminating the bulk of the 160,000 Jews in the city as well as tens of thousands from the surrounding countryside. Very little remains of the site today and little archaeology is possible as the area is still largely part of a Ukrainian prison. Commemoration and public history around the former camp is limited, even for the inhabitants of Lviv. A methodology incorporating the spatial turn-an analysis of space and place in the camp, as well at multiple scales-is therefore especially suited to investigating the built environment of this camp.Relying on the archival research for a completed scholarly book manuscript, this project aims to build the first Historical Building Information Model (HBIM) of a Nazi concentration camp. This pathbreaking digital humanities (DH) project will add to several critical scholarly discussions: 1) the use of DH tools in modeling and scholarly analysis, 2) the pedagogical utility of HBIM in public history, 3) the ethical considerations raised by the application of this methodology to sensitive topics like sites of suffering and genocide as well as its prospective suitability in the heritage sector. In addition, it will offer me as a digital humanist to hone my skills in the doing of DH and in leading an interdisciplinary team.HBIMs are rapidly becoming a cutting-edge tool for both the preservation and analysis of historical spaces. Once built, the model will enable a variety of research exploring issues such as visibility, perspective, even the modelling of sound. Such inquiries can both answer and ask important questions about the lived experience of the camp that other methodologies cannot.The process of creation raises important theoretical and methodological questions of great interest to the larger historical community. Historical sources are by nature imperfect and will lend varying degrees of accuracy to the HBIM. In reconciling these sources, this project operates at the forefront of DH work by grappling with mapping ambiguity and qualitative mapping. For example, what choices do we make in modelling when we have less than perfect information about the built environment and how do we visualize that ambiguity and indicate it to the user? Equally important, this project will encounter critical ethical questions that bear investigating. How do we visualize these spaces? What choices must be made with regards to realism and representation? Only through the process of modelling can these practices be explored. One of the outputs of this project will be at least one but potentially more scholarly journal articles reflecting on the theoretical, methodological, and ethical questions and lessons learned from this digital reconstruction. Finally, the web-based educational platform (which will incorporate the model) will link archival information such as testimony and images spatially within the model, providing a rigorously curated introduction to the important history of the camp and the Holocaust in Lviv/Galizien. This additional project element performs two critical roles. First, as it will be translated into Ukrainian, the model will be used to educate the local population of Lviv and Ukraine. Secondly, both the project and the accompanying educational environment will model one approach to the preservation and interpretation of heritage sites. This is especially important given the fact that the majority of the Janowska site is both inaccessible to the public and mostly physically destroyed. The recent war in Ukraine has made this even more pressing as Russian forces have destroyed Holocaust sites and archives.
从1941年到1944年,纳粹在乌克兰利沃夫郊区一个名为Janowska的小型集中营杀害了大约8万人,其中大部分是犹太人。该集中营也是驱逐和灭绝该市16万犹太人以及周边农村数万名犹太人的不可或缺的帮凶。今天,该遗址的遗迹很少,考古工作也很少,因为该地区基本上仍然是乌克兰监狱的一部分。以前营地周围的纪念活动和公共历史是有限的,即使对利沃夫的居民也是如此。因此,一种结合了空间转向的方法--对集中营内的空间和地点以及多个尺度的分析--特别适合于调查这个集中营的建筑环境。该项目依靠对完成的学术书籍手稿的档案研究,旨在建立第一个纳粹集中营的历史建筑信息模型(HBIM)。这一开创性的数字人文科学(DH)项目将增加几个重要的学术讨论:1)在建模和学术分析中使用数字人文科学工具,2)HBIM在公共历史中的教学效用,3)将这一方法应用于诸如遭受苦难和种族灭绝等敏感主题所引起的伦理考虑,以及它在遗产部门的预期适用性。此外,它将为我提供一个数字人文主义者,以磨练我的技能,在做卫生署和领导一个跨学科的团队。HBIM正在迅速成为保存和分析历史空间的尖端工具。一旦建成,该模型将使各种探索问题的研究成为可能,例如可见性、透视率,甚至声音的建模。这样的调查可以回答和提出其他方法论无法回答的关于集中营生活经验的重要问题。创造过程提出了更大的历史社区非常感兴趣的重要理论和方法论问题。历史资料本质上是不完美的,将为HBIM提供不同程度的准确性。在协调这些资料来源的过程中,该项目处于卫生与公众服务部工作的前列,努力解决地图的歧义和定性地图的问题。例如,当我们没有关于建筑环境的不完美信息时,我们在建模中做出了什么选择,以及我们如何可视化这种模糊性并将其指示给用户?同样重要的是,这个项目将遇到值得调查的关键伦理问题。我们如何想象这些空间?关于现实主义和表现力,必须做出什么选择?只有通过建模的过程才能探索这些做法。该项目的成果之一将是至少一篇学术期刊文章,反映从数字重建中学到的理论、方法论和伦理问题和教训。最后,基于网络的教育平台(将纳入该模式)将在该模式内将诸如证词和图像等档案信息在空间上联系起来,对利沃夫/加利辛难民营和大屠杀的重要历史进行严格策划的介绍。这个额外的项目元素扮演着两个关键角色。首先,由于它将被翻译成乌克兰语,该模式将用于教育利沃夫和乌克兰的当地人口。其次,该项目及其配套的教育环境将为遗产遗址的保护和解释提供一种模式。鉴于Janowska遗址的大部分既不向公众开放,又大多被毁,这一点尤其重要。随着俄罗斯军队摧毁了大屠杀遗址和档案,乌克兰最近的战争使这一点变得更加紧迫。
