Context for ResearchThis grant will funda collaborative project between Lancaster University and The Wordsworth Trust. We will be working with manuscript materials for two Woodsworth texts (early Prelude material and Home at Grasmere) which are both fundamentally about the importance of place to the writing of poetry - either in escaping from a hostile environment through writing poetry that draws on memories of place, or in celebrating a final home-coming to the Lakes. All original manuscript materials are held at Dove Cottage, Grasmere. By putting the manuscript materials online we want to open up an understanding of the relationship between actual physical place (today) and imagined, textual space in the content of the poem and the making of the manuscript. We would like visitors to the actual site, and to the virtual site to be given a new way of understanding this relationship by means of our project.In his writing, Wordsworth recreates his own experience of joy and rapture in response to the Lake District, as he slides across the ice, steals bird's eggs from a crag, or arrives in Grasmere for the first time: 'how my heart / Panted ... how my bosom beat/ With hope and fear' (MS JJ [DC MS 19] X). Our site will allow the public to share something of that excitement by giving them access to those accounts in their very earliest handwritten form. By guiding others through interpretation of the processes of writing about place, we will use the manuscript materials themselves as a site where different kinds of experience of place can come together and inform each other. The web site will be designed to have three levels of access: as a child or a teacher; as a visitor; as a specialist. It will contain a 'read-aloud' version of key manuscripts; stage by stage reconstructions of the writing of certain passages; discussion and comparison of images and structures; visual links to actual places mentioned; information about the writing of the manuscripts in and around Grasmere; creative activities. Understanding the nature of the creative process is something of interest to all of us. In relation to children, in particular, the accessible presentation of the way in which a poem is written and re-written, will help them to produce their own writings.Aims and ObjectivesThe work will last for four months and involve collaboration between an academic specialist from the English department, the curator at the Trust (who will also undertake the text encoding), a digital expert who has worked with the Trust on a number of projects and the interpretations and IT officers. The primary objective of the project is to explore imaginative ways of presenting manuscripts materials in hypertext ans by means of TEI and to create an accessible way of understanding those materials for a wide audience. For the academic participant the objective is also two-fold: to develop a more innovative methodological way of interpreting literature and texts through place (emerging from practical engagement and theoretical reflection) and to produce academic articles drawing upon such innovation. The project allows a deeper understanding of the relationship between the writing of poetry and a particular location, avoiding a simplistic revisiting of place in terms of biography by placing the emphasis on the space and place of the text. The research which emerges will therefore be about the ways in which we ourselves and the manuscript object somehow retain that connection in the present.Applications and BenefitsThe project will stand as a model for successful collaboration between ana cademic and a non-academic institution and be of use to those interested in Wordsworth from all around the world who are not able to come to Dove Cottage. It will be of particular interest to other literary museums and to those working eith hypertext in

研究背景这项赠款将资助兰开斯特大学和华兹华斯信托基金之间的合作项目。我们将与两个伍兹沃思文本（早期前奏曲材料和家在格拉斯米尔）的手稿材料，这都是从根本上讲的重要性的地方写诗-无论是在逃离一个敌对的环境通过写诗，借鉴地方的记忆，或在庆祝最后回家来的湖泊。所有原始手稿材料都保存在格拉斯米尔的鸽子小屋。通过将手稿材料放在网上，我们希望了解实际的物理位置（今天）和想象中的关系，诗歌内容中的文本空间和手稿的制作。我们希望访问者的实际网站，并以虚拟网站被赋予一种新的方式理解这种关系的手段，我们的项目。在他的写作，华兹华斯重现了他自己的经验，喜悦和狂喜，以回应湖区，因为他滑过冰，偷鸟蛋从悬崖，或抵达格拉斯米尔第一次：“我的心/气喘吁吁.我的胸膛如何跳动/带着希望和恐惧'（MS JJ [DC MS 19] X）。我们的网站将允许公众分享一些令人兴奋的东西，让他们访问这些帐户在他们最早的手写形式。通过指导他人解读书写地点的过程，我们将把手稿材料本身作为一个场所，不同类型的地点体验可以聚集在一起，相互交流。该网站将设计成有三个层次的访问：作为儿童或教师;作为访问者;作为专家。它将包含关键手稿的“朗读”版本;某些段落写作的逐步重建;图像和结构的讨论和比较;提到的实际地点的视觉链接;关于格拉斯米尔及其周围手稿写作的信息;创造性活动。理解创作过程的本质是我们所有人都感兴趣的事情。特别是在儿童方面，一首诗的写作和重写的方式的可访问的介绍，将帮助他们产生自己的作品。目的和目标这项工作将持续四个月，涉及来自英语系的学术专家，信托基金会的策展人，（他也将承担文本编码），数字专家谁曾与信托基金的一些项目和口译和信息技术官员。该项目的主要目标是探索以超文本和TEI方式呈现手稿材料的富有想象力的方法，并为广大受众创造一种理解这些材料的无障碍方式。对于学术参与者来说，目标也是双重的：开发一种更具创新性的方法论方式，通过地方（从实践参与和理论反思中产生）来解释文学和文本，并利用这种创新来撰写学术文章。该项目允许更深入地了解诗歌写作与特定地点之间的关系，通过强调文本的空间和地点，避免了在传记方面简单地重新审视地点。因此，我们的研究将是关于我们自己和手稿对象在某种程度上保持这种联系的方式。应用和好处该项目将成为一个学院和非学院机构之间成功合作的典范，并对那些对华兹华斯感兴趣的人有用，他们来自世界各地，无法来到鸽子小屋。这将是特别感兴趣的其他文学博物馆和那些工作与超文本在
