Pre-Raphaelites Online

对拉斐尔前派兄弟会（PRB）的研究受到一些材料限制的阻碍：许多重要作品是跨学科的“双重作品”，将文本与图像对齐；艺术品分散在画廊和个人收藏中；PRB由多名艺术家和作家组成，他们在各种媒体上工作。我们建议通过促进博物馆专业人员和学术学者之间的合作来应对这些挑战，建立一个在线平台，使其易于将拉斐尔前派作品和图像的图像，时间线，地图和注释关键版本联系起来。该界面和工具集将使我们能够将策展人、艺术史学家和文学学者聚集在一起，共同创建一个关于PRB和美学运动的开放访问信息库。参与者包括致力于拉斐尔前派作品的最重要的画廊（特别是特拉华艺术博物馆，伯明翰博物馆和艺术画廊，耶鲁大学英国艺术中心和瓦茨画廊）；拥有PRB资料的图书馆（尤其是伯明翰大学的吉百利研究图书馆和特拉华大学图书馆，其中有9500本书、信件、手稿、照片、蜉蜉曲和马克·塞缪尔·拉斯纳收藏的艺术品）；最受尊敬的PRB作品在线资源库，杰罗姆·麦克甘的罗塞蒂档案馆；与英国三家最知名的维多利亚研究中心（埃克塞特大学维多利亚研究中心、伯克贝克大学19世纪研究中心和伯明翰大学19世纪研究中心）联合创建一个在线资源，专门研究PRB及其对英国美学运动的影响。我们将建立在一个已经存在的基础设施上：COVE或中央在线维多利亚教育者http://covecollective.org，一个开放访问的网站，使多人可以对四个相互关联的工具之一进行添加：多媒体注释工具；时间轴工具；地理空间地图工具；还是一个画廊建造者。每个工具的设计都是为了让多个个体可以同时工作，共同创建一个资源。使用这些工具构建的产品也可以相互连接，在时间轴元素中嵌入交互式地图，或者在同一页面上与地图元素和时间轴元素关联的图库图像，正如在这个将Rossetti Archive奖学金与从COVE数据库绘制的地图和时间轴链接的原型示例中所看到的那样（向下滚动查看地图和时间轴）：https://editions.covecollective.org/content/dante-gabriel-rossetti-elizabeth-eleanor-siddal-1861COVE包括对提交出版的产品进行同行评审、文字编辑和校对的机制。一旦发布，时间轴、地图和图库中的每个单独元素都可供未来的用户使用，以便在新的自定义时间轴、地图和图库中重新使用。这种可移植性确保了收藏材料的未来相关性，使其不仅可供学者使用，也可供课堂上的学生或公众使用。PRO: Pre-Raphaelites Online将拥有自己的域名（procollective.org）和网站；然而，它将被整合到COVE中，以便它可以从COVE的材料中提取（反之亦然），从而最大限度地发挥场地的多功能性、实用性和影响力。COVE提供数字基础设施；博物馆提供数字内容；但是，网络成员提供了专业知识、求知欲和热情，以设想发展新研究的创新方式。网络活动将允许参与者为大型项目制定明确的计划，例如，策划拉斐尔前派珠宝的3d扫描画廊，或Moxon的插图丁尼生的注释版，并为将支持这些项目完成的主要拨款投标奠定基础。

Study of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood (PRB) is hampered by a few material limitations: many of the significant works are interdisciplinary "double works" that align texts with images; the artwork is dispersed across galleries and individual collections; and the PRB was made up of multiple artists and authors working in a variety of media. We propose dealing with these challenges by promoting collaboration among museum professionals and academic scholars to build upon an online platform that makes it easy to link images, timelines, maps and annotated critical editions of Pre-Raphaelite works and images. The interface and toolset will allow us to bring together curators, art historians, and literary scholars in joint creation of an open-access repository of information about the PRB and the Aesthetic movement. Participants include the most significant galleries dedicated to Pre-Raphaelite work (especially the Delaware Art Museum, the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery, the Yale Center for British Art, and the Watts Gallery); libraries that hold PRB material (especially the Cadbury Research Library at the U of Birmingham and the University of Delaware Library, with its 9,500 books, letters, manuscripts, photographs, ephemera, and artworks in the Mark Samuels Lasner collection); the most respected online repository of PRB work, Jerome McGann's Rossetti Archive; and three of the most well-regarded UK centres dedicated to Victorian studies (Exeter's Centre for Victorian Studies, Birkbeck's Centre for Nineteenth-Century Studies, and Birmingham's Nineteenth-Century Centre) in joint creation of an online resource devoted to the PRB and its influence on the British Aesthetic movement. We will build on an already existing infrastructure: The COVE or The Central Online Victorian Educator at http://covecollective.org, an open-access site that makes it possible for multiple people to make additions to one of four interconnected tools: a multimedia annotation tool; a timeline tool; a geospatial map tool; and a gallery-builder. Each tool is designed so that multiple individuals can work simultaneously in joint creation of a resource. Products built with the tools can also be interconnected, with interactive maps embedded in timeline elements, or gallery images associated on the same page with map elements and timeline elements, as can be seen in this prototype example linking Rossetti Archive scholarship with a map and timeline that draw from the COVE database (scroll down for the map and timeline): https://editions.covecollective.org/content/dante-gabriel-rossetti-elizabeth-eleanor-siddal-1861COVE includes mechanisms for peer review, copy-editing and proofing of products submitted for publication. Once published, each individual element from timelines, maps and galleries is made available to future users for repurposing in new custom timelines, maps and galleries. Such portability ensures the future relevance of the material in the collection, making it available not only to scholars but also to students in the classroom or the general public. PRO: Pre-Raphaelites Online will have its own domain name (procollective.org) and site; however, it will be integrated into COVE so that it can draw from material at COVE (and vice-versa), thus maximising the versatility, usefulness and impact of the site. COVE supplies the digital infrastructure; the museums supply the digital content; but the network members provide the expertise, intellectual curiosity, and enthusiasm to conceive of innovative ways of developing fresh research. The network events will allow participants to devise clear plans for large-scale projects--curated galleries of 3d-scanned Pre-Raphaelite jewellery, or an annotated edition of Moxon's illustrated Tennyson, for example--and develop the groundwork for the major grant bids that will support those projects through to completion.
