Why Did You Leave the Horse Alone?: A practice-based exploration of the influence of material culture on the construction of contemporary shared belie

你为什么把马一个人留下？：对物质文化对当代共同信念和集体记忆构建的影响的实践探索。在诺森比亚大学的博士学习将使我能够在我理想的导师团队的指导下，从事一个雄心勃勃的研究项目。我想向克里斯汀·博兰德教授学习，因为她在第一次世界大战中从事了令人信服的跨学科实践和学科专业化。博兰德跨越困难的文化主题和伦理敏感性的能力，以及她在博物馆收藏品方面的工作，使她成为我这个博士项目理想的主要监督人。作为二级主管，凯瑟琳·巴克斯特是一位理想的后殖民研究学科专家，她对第一次世界大战在中东的殖民遗产也有同样的兴趣。我们曾在约旦一起工作，她与英国安曼研究所(CBRL)和约旦博物馆建立了专业关系。桑德兰大学的唐娜·钱伯斯教授可以担任我的外部顾问，因为她在后殖民研究和非殖民化方法论方面的专业知识将对我的博士项目至关重要。在诺森比亚大学攻读博士学位将使我能够接触到工作室空间、数字剪辑套件和工作室工作的拍摄设备。我对现代阿拉伯语、促进和人类学技术以及后殖民研究方面的培训感兴趣，因为我不是这一领域的专家。我有兴趣在新西兰国防军中东分部或该地区的外交机构获得一份工作--任何工作都要通过我的主管网络确认。实地考察费用包括：前往约旦的两次为期一个月的旅行(讲习班、乌德表演、与约旦博物馆的研究)；前往新西兰的为期两个月的旅行(与Te Papa博物馆的讲习班、研究)。博士项目的额外资金可以通过创意新西兰申请

Why Did You Leave the Horse Alone?: A practice-based exploration of the influence of material culture on the construction of contemporary shared beliefs and collective memory.Doctoral study at Northumbria University will enable me to work on an ambitious research project under the guidance of my ideal team of supervisors. I want to study with Professor Christine Borland due to her compelling cross-disciplinary practice and subject specialization in World War 1. Borland's ability to traverse difficult cultural topics and ethical sensitivities, and her work within museum collections make her my ideal primary supervisory for this doctoral project. As secondary supervisor, Katherine Baxter is an ideal subject specialist in post-colonial studies and has parallel interests in the colonial inheritances of WW1 in the Middle East. We have worked together in Jordan and she has professional relationships established with British Institute in Amman (CBRL) and Jordan Museum. Professor Donna Chambers at University of Sunderland is available to be my external advisor, as her expertise in postcolonial studies and decolonising methodologies will be crucial to navigating my doctoral project. Doctoral study with Northumbria University would allow me access to studio space, digital editing suites and filming equipment for studio work. I am interested in additional training in Modern Arabic, facilitation and anthropological techniques, and training in postcolonial studies as I am not a specialist in this field. I am interested in securing a placement with the Middle East branch of the NZ Defence Force or a diplomatic agency in the region - any placements to be confirmed via my supervisors' networks. Fieldwork costs include: two one-month trips to Jordan (workshops, performance of the oud, research with the Jordan Museum); a two-month trip to New Zealand (workshops, research with Te Papa Museum). Additional funding for the doctoral project may be applied for through Creative New Zealand
