项目摘要

To be 'international' is to be among but also between nations. This project will explore the internationalisation of Shakespeare as a series of interactions that are not limited by geographical, cultural, and chronological divides to make something truly 'between'. I see this project as an opportunity to capture and curate the 'betweenness' of Shakespeare's cultural and political currency as interactions and exchanges manifested in cultural artefacts. My analysis will question the meeting point between Shakespeare and the (cultural) production of the item: what elements of Shakespeare (in general, or his work) represents or instigates the 'between' that appeals to, relates to, or raises questions within that culture at the time of the item's production. Furthermore, I will query what impact the interaction has Shakespeare: what new meanings and fresh interpretations spring from the interaction and go on to inspire and engender more again. Thus the 'between' is the fertile ground that propagates both meaning and continued international interest in Shakespeare.The findings of the academic study of the betweenness and political/cultural currency of Shakespeare will be rendered on a map within an open-access, blog-linked, searchable web program. Users will be able to click to see the full history of the interactions with each specific culture, which will be linked and searchable by date, country, play, poem, artefact type, and potentially by socio-political event. This will result in a comprehensive digital archive which will open up the international collection to researchers, enthusiasts and the public. Through the innovation and comprehensiveness of the interface, the Birthplace will be reinstalled as the natural repository for research and artefacts of this type by exposing and expanding its outreach and inviting future interactions as part of a future collecting strategy. Furthermore, in encouraging contributions by international contributors it will make a purposeful step towards freeing Shakespeare studies from the limitations of ethnocentrism. In the present time of not only cultural and religious conflict, but also declining acknowledgment of the importance of literature, this project, in emphasising Shakespeare as a medium for better understanding ourselves as a global community - by celebrating the 'between' - could be infinitely valuable. Narrative historicism will empower the archive to tell its own story as part of a consolidated methodology that implements order through the internal narrative of the collection, as opposed to imposing order upon the collection from the outside, as is the norm in much curatorial as well as scholarly practice. I would also employ critical discourse analysis and digital humanities method/ologies with which I am conversant through my current MRes studies. My suitability for this role as a cultural archaeologist and curator lies not only in my creativity and credentials, but my curiosity about stories that have not yet been told. Being led by curiosity, rather than expectation or agenda, should 'free' unknown historical and cross-cultural narratives, and insure against colonization of the collection.

“国际化”是指在国家之间，也在国家之间。该项目将探索莎士比亚作为一系列不受地理、文化和时间界限限制的互动的国际化，以创造真正的“之间”。我认为这个项目是一个机会，可以捕捉和策划莎士比亚文化和政治货币之间的互动和交流，体现在文化艺术品中。我的分析将质疑莎士比亚与物品（文化）生产之间的交汇点：在物品生产时，莎士比亚（总的来说，或他的作品）的哪些元素代表或煽动了吸引、相关或在该文化中提出问题的“两者”。此外，我将询问这种互动对莎士比亚产生了什么影响：从这种互动中产生了什么新的意义和新的解释，并继续激发和产生更多的东西。因此，“between”是一块肥沃的土壤，既能传播莎士比亚的意义，又能让国际社会继续关注莎士比亚。学术研究的发现和莎士比亚的政治/文化货币之间将呈现在地图上，在一个开放访问，博客链接，可搜索的网络程序。用户可以点击查看与每种特定文化互动的完整历史，这些历史可以通过日期、国家、戏剧、诗歌、人工制品类型以及潜在的社会政治事件进行链接和搜索。这将形成一个全面的数字档案，向研究人员、爱好者和公众开放国际收藏。通过界面的创新和全面，出生地将被重新安装为这种类型的研究和人工制品的自然存储库，通过暴露和扩展其外展，并邀请未来的互动作为未来收集策略的一部分。此外，在鼓励国际贡献者的贡献方面，它将朝着将莎士比亚研究从种族中心主义的限制中解放出来迈出有目的的一步。在当今这个文化和宗教冲突不断的时代，文学的重要性也越来越受到重视，这个项目强调莎士比亚是一个更好地理解我们作为一个全球社区的媒介——通过庆祝“两者之间”——可能具有无限的价值。叙事历史主义将使档案能够讲述自己的故事，作为统一方法的一部分，通过藏品的内部叙事来实现秩序，而不是从外部强加给藏品秩序，这是许多策展和学术实践中的规范。我也会采用批判性话语分析和数字人文方法/技术，我通过我目前的MRes研究熟悉。我适合担任文化考古学家和策展人这一角色，不仅在于我的创造力和资历，还在于我对尚未被讲述的故事的好奇心。由好奇心引导，而不是期望或议程，应该“解放”未知的历史和跨文化叙事，并确保藏品不被殖民化。
