项目摘要

Photographic history has only recently developed as a formal academic discipline in the UK, its progress restrained by lack of major reference works and standard texts of the type that underpin art history and other scholarly subjects. The most comprehensive records of photographic exhibitions for the latter part of the 19th century are those of the Photographic Society of Great Britain, London, which, after 1870, are published in full in The Photographic Journal. Although other photographic societies elsewhere in Britain flourished and held their own annual exhibitions, sadly, exhibition catalogues from these societies seem not to have survived. In contrast, the 44 extant catalogues of the Photographic Society of Great Britain contain around 30,000 individual records, including, for the first time, accompanying line or half tone illustrations of some of the photographs exhibited. They offer a unique insight into the personalities, products, techniques, tastes and artistic and commercial trends of this period, as well as the fortunes of the Royal Photographic Society itself. After 1870 the Photographic Society of Great Britain was recognised as the leading photographic society, attracting a wide constituency of photographers, from Britain, Europe and America. Many individuals launched their photographic career by exhibiting at the Royal Photographic Society and a significant number went on to become leading practitioners of their day.Drawing on the resources of Birmingham City Library, De Montfort University will make these records available online in a browsable and searchable database, supplementing them with additional images and commentaries from the contemporary Journal Photograms of the Year to further aid identification and understanding of the items exhibited. When viewed together with the previously AHRC funded Photographs Exhibited in Britain 1839-1865 (www.peib.org.uk), Photographs Exhibited at the Royal Photographic Society 1870-1915 will create a unique online resource spanning the entire 19th century history of photography. It will allow scholars for the first time to conduct searches across a broad sweep of historical data, to reveal hitherto hidden practices, groupings, developments in techniques, changes in fashion and the dissemination of ideas. It will also aid the identification and attribution of photographs from this period. The synergistic potential of this combined resource will be further enhanced by the development of a search facility that will allow combined search of these two databases and others, despite their differences, and return integrated sets of research results that can be collectively filtered and organised.

摄影史在英国只是最近才发展成为一门正式的学术学科，由于缺乏作为艺术史和其他学术学科基础的主要参考著作和标准文本类型，它的发展受到了限制。19世纪后半叶最全面的摄影展览记录是位于伦敦的英国摄影学会的记录，在1870年后，全文发表在《摄影杂志》上。尽管英国其他地方的摄影协会蓬勃发展，并举办了自己的年度展览，但遗憾的是，这些协会的展览目录似乎并未幸存下来。相比之下，英国摄影学会现存的44个目录包含了大约30,000个个人记录，其中包括首次展出的一些照片的附线或半色调插图。他们提供了一个独特的洞察个性，产品，技术，品味，艺术和商业趋势，以及皇家摄影学会本身的命运。1870年后，英国摄影学会被公认为领先的摄影学会，吸引了来自英国、欧洲和美国的众多摄影师。许多人通过在皇家摄影学会展出开始了他们的摄影生涯，其中相当一部分人后来成为他们那个时代的顶尖实践者。德蒙福特大学利用伯明翰城市图书馆的资源，将这些记录放在一个可浏览和搜索的数据库中，并用当代杂志年度照片中的更多图像和评论补充这些记录，以进一步帮助识别和理解展出的物品。当与1839-1865年在英国展出的AHRC资助的照片(www.peib.org.uk)一起观看时，在皇家摄影学会1870-1915年展出的照片将创建一个独特的在线资源，横跨整个19世纪的摄影史。它将首次允许学者们在广泛的历史数据中进行搜索，揭示迄今隐藏的做法、分类、技术发展、时尚变化和思想传播。它还将有助于识别和确定这一时期的照片。这一合并资源的协同潜力将通过开发一个搜索设施进一步加强，该设施将允许对这两个数据库和其他数据库进行联合搜索，尽管它们存在差异，并返回可集体筛选和组织的综合研究结果集。
