Psychiatry And The Arts In Nineteenth-Century Britain

19世纪英国的精神病学和艺术（PAN）网络汇集了对艺术史（包括音乐、视觉艺术和文学）和精神病学有研究兴趣和专长的知名学者和早期职业学者。跨学科网络汇集了重要的研究专家进行合作和反思，以及制定新的研究方向。它结合了对历史主题的集中讨论，以及通过从业者和创意艺术家的参与和影响的更广泛视角。网络的问题是，在19世纪的英国，在精神病院、出版著作和其他媒体的背景下，艺术和精神病学之间的关系是什么？2)我们如何在健康和社会史以及19世纪英国艺术史的更广泛背景下理解这种关系及其相关实践？3)深入了解艺术与精神病学之间的历史关系，如何在今天广泛的艺术和卫生服务中产生直接的社会效益？4)未来的哪些研究方向既可以建立在历史基础上，又可以利用影响和参与的机会？近年来，艺术与健康之间的关系日益突出，既有专业艺术疗法的成功，也有非正式形式的社区艺术，特别是参与性艺术，以及对艺术作用感兴趣的健康和医学人文学科的复兴。此外，医学和其他培训环境现在正在将艺术批评和实践纳入他们的课程，而新兴的处方艺术运动中也出现了将艺术作为治疗方法的新方法。自21世纪初以来，艺术作为医学的历史受到了特别的关注，其中包括Horden (2000), Gouk（2000）和Hogan（2001）等学者的重要贡献。19世纪的英国在大规模公共心理健康提供的背景下，为艺术作为治疗形式的发展提供了关键的考验。在18世纪末到19世纪中叶之间，对有精神健康问题的人的护理安排在很大程度上变得正式，建立了一个由乞丐疯人院组成的网络，以及为中上层阶级提供的医院和疗养院。由于缺乏有效的治疗精神错乱的药物，一种“道德管理”的哲学盛行起来，这种哲学认为病人生活在一个精心控制的环境中，从事工作，享受合理的职业和娱乐。在艺术治疗的正式模式发展之前，音乐、艺术、戏剧和文学的创新方法跨越了广泛的机构和背景，将艺术牢牢地置于道德管理的治疗实践中。PAN网络将参与跨学科艺术近期研究的学者聚集在一起，通过与博物馆和文化遗产、艺术家实践者以及健康和福利专业人士的接触，为未来的研究和影响活动奠定基础。它为审议研究方向和优先事项提供了专门的空间和时间，寻求与影响伙伴合作探索和建立创新途径。三场研讨会将关注历史主题，考虑实践、话语和背景，并在第三次研讨会和最后一次会议上考虑影响和参与。从早期阶段开始，将征求利益攸关方的意见，并进一步发展正式伙伴关系，以支持该网络主持下正在进行的合作项目。

The Psychiatry and the Arts in Nineteenth-Century Britain (PAN) Network draws together established scholars and early-career academics with research interests and specialisms in the history of the arts (including music, visual arts and literature) and psychiatry. The interdisciplinary Network brings together key research experts for collaboration and reflection as well as for setting new research directions. It combines focussed discussion of historical themes with wider perspectives on engagement and impact via the inclusion of practitioners and creative artists. The Network asks1) what was the relationship between the arts and psychiatry in nineteenth-century Britain, in the contexts of psychiatric institutions, published writings, and other media?2) how do we understand this relationship and its associated practices within the broader context of health and social history, and the history of the arts in nineteenth-century Britain?3) how can a deeper understanding of the historical relationship between arts and psychiatry generate direct social benefits today, across a wide range of both arts and health services?4) what future research directions serve both to build on the historical foundations, and to make use of opportunities for impact and engagement? The relationships between the arts and health have come to the fore in recent years, with the success of established professional arts therapies, informal forms of community arts, especially participatory arts, as well as a health and medical humanities resurgence with interests in the role of the arts. Furthermore, medical and other training environments are now adopting arts criticism and practice into their curricula, while new approaches to arts as therapy are seen in the burgeoning arts-on-prescription movement. The history of the arts as medicine has received particular attention since the early-twenty first century, with important contributions from scholars such as Horden (2000), Gouk (2000) and Hogan (2001). Nineteenth-century Britain provided a key crucible for the development of the arts as forms of therapy, in the context of large-scale public mental health provision. Between the late-eighteenth century and the middle of the nineteenth, arrangements for the care of people experiencing mental health problems became largely formalised with the establishment of a network of pauper lunatic asylums, as well as hospitals and sanatoria for the middle and upper classes. Lacking any effective forms of medical treatment for insanity, a philosophy of 'moral management' prevailed, which saw patients live in a carefully-controlled environment, undertake employment, and enjoy rational occupations and amusements. Prior to the development of formal models of arts therapy, innovative approaches in music, art, theatre and literature across a wide range of institutions and contexts placed the arts firmly within the therapeutic practice of moral management. The PAN Network draws together scholars involved in recent research across the interdisciplinary arts, building the foundation for future research and impact activity through engagement with museums and cultural heritage sites, artist-practitioners and health and wellbeing professionals. It offers dedicated space and time for the consideration of research directions and priorities, seeking to explore and establish innovative pathways in collaboration with impact partners. The three seminars will focus on historical themes, considering Practices, Discourses, and Contexts, moving towards a consideration of impact and engagement in the third seminar and the final conference. From an early stage, stakeholders will be consulted and formal partnerships further developed, in support of ongoing collaborative projects under the auspices of the network.
