Prince Albert, the Great Exhibition 1851 and its Aftermath in the Context of Anglo-German Cultural Relations

该项目的目的是研究阿尔贝亲王在1851年大展中的作用，具体考虑到德国对该展览的贡献。它将分析阿尔伯特亲王作为英德文化传承者的角色，以及他在1851年大展上挑选德国展品时所扮演的角色，以及英吉利海峡两岸对这些展品的看法。它将回顾后来被维多利亚和阿尔伯特博物馆永久收藏的展品，并回顾19世纪中期大展览在机构、教育和收藏实践方面的后果。

The project aims to undertake research into the role of Prince Albert in the Great Exhibition of 1851 in specific view of the German contributions to the Exhibition. It will analyse Prince Albert as an Anglo-German Cultural Transferant and what role he played in the selection of German exhibits at the Great Exhibition of 1851 and how these were perceived on both side of the Channel. It will look at the exhibits that subsequently were taken into the permanent collection of the Victoria & Albert Museum and look at the Aftermath of the Great Exhibition in regards to institutional, educational and collecting practices in the mid-19th Century.
