Home from home? Constructions of identity and the British warship interior, 1880-1939

军舰是英国海军战略的关键，在英国国民心理中占据着重要地位。然而，它们也是重要的制度空间，塑造了海军人员和超越海军世界的更广泛的阶级、种族、性别和年龄观念。这个学生奖学金将是这一时期致力于探索军舰作为一个机构空间，塑造其居民的经验和身份的第一个项目。该项目旨在将社会和文化历史中开发的新研究议程与RMG的专业知识和档案馆藏结合在一起，为开发原创研究项目提供令人兴奋的新机会，并为职业发展提供强有力的支持。

Warships were key to Britain's naval strategy and occupied a fundamental role in the British national psyche. They were also, however, important institutional spaces that shaped both naval personnel and wider perceptions of class, race, gender and age that went beyond the naval world. This studentship would be the first project for this period devoted to exploring the warship as an institutional space that shaped the experiences and identities of its inhabitants. The project is designed to bring a new research agenda developed in social and cultural history together with expertise and archival holdings at RMG to offer an exciting new opportunity to develop an original research project with strong support for career development.
