The article investigates the collusion between colonialism and liberalism in Victorian Britain through the imperial statuary in St Paul’s Cathedral. In particular, it examines the commemorative statues of colonial heroes from British India, with particular reference to the statues of James Napier, Henry Montgomery Lawrence and Samuel Browne: it places these figures in their historical context, explores their often conflicted relation to the East India Company and imperial rule in South Asia, and teases out the multiple intensities of meaning – personal, professional, ambivalent, messy – pulsing under these statues. A close examination of the statuary reveals the impulses and anxieties around the imperial male body that went into their making and how the marble both concealed and congealed these stories to produce sanitized versions of violence and empire.
文章通过圣保罗大教堂的帝国雕像,研究了维多利亚时期英国殖民主义与自由主义之间的勾结。文章特别研究了英属印度殖民英雄的纪念雕像,尤其是詹姆斯-纳皮尔(James Napier)、亨利-蒙哥马利-劳伦斯(Henry Montgomery Lawrence)和塞缪尔-布朗(Samuel Browne)的雕像:文章将这些人物置于其历史背景中,探讨了他们与东印度公司和南亚帝国统治之间经常发生冲突的关系,并揭示了这些雕像下蕴含的多重意义--个人的、职业的、矛盾的、混乱的。对雕像的仔细研究揭示了在制作过程中与帝国男性身体有关的冲动和焦虑,以及大理石是如何掩盖和凝结这些故事,从而产生暴力和帝国的净化版本的。

Monuments to ‘settlement’: Australia in St Paul’s Cathedral, 1888–1913 定居 "纪念碑:圣保罗大教堂中的澳大利亚,1888-1913 年

This article conceptualizes the relatively small and visually modest presence of Australia in St Paul’s as monuments to British ‘settlement’, rather than invasion. It examines three plaques to politicians and colonial Governors General, and the presence of Australia in the larger-scale memorial to the South African War (1899–1901). I argue that these monuments naturalized the idea of Australia as a place of peaceful White settlement, contributed to the formation of global White settler identities, and relocated violence and warfare primarily to the African continent. I employ Goenpul woman and feminist scholar Aileen Moreton-Robinson’s notion of ‘white possessive logics’ to explore how these monuments work to legitimize Indigenous dispossession in the heart of the British metropole.
本文将澳大利亚在大三巴牌坊中相对较小且视觉效果一般的存在概念化为英国 "定居 "而非入侵的纪念碑。文章研究了三块纪念政治家和殖民总督的牌匾,以及澳大利亚在南非战争(1899-1901 年)大型纪念碑中的存在。我认为,这些纪念碑将澳大利亚作为白人和平定居地的理念归化,促进了全球白人定居者身份的形成,并将暴力和战争主要转移到非洲大陆。我运用戈恩布尔妇女和女权主义学者艾琳-莫尔顿-罗宾逊(Aileen Moreton-Robinson)的 "白人占有逻辑 "概念,探讨这些纪念碑如何在英国大都会的中心地带使土著人的剥夺合法化。

Two early nineteenth-century monuments in St Paul’s register the growing significance of the empire in India: John Bacon Sr and Jr’s monument to Bengal judge William Jones, and J. C. F. Rossi’s monument to the Governor General, Lord Cornwallis; the artists took the opportunity to explore the possibilities of Hindu art and Indian culture within the Christian space of St Paul’s. This article looks at the origins of the iconography of the two monuments, suggesting how the juxtaposition of classical, Christian and Hindu motifs in the monument to Jones suggested Bacon’s promulgation of a type of visual religious teaching, homologous with Jones’s comparative religious studies, while Rossi elaborated a theme of fertility using a mixture of themes from contemporary land reform and the Hindu Ramayana .
圣保罗教堂 19 世纪早期的两座纪念碑反映了帝国在印度日益增长的重要性:老约翰-培根和小约翰-培根为孟加拉法官威廉-琼斯 (William Jones) 树立的纪念碑,以及 J. C. F. 罗西为总督康沃利斯勋爵 (Lord Cornwallis) 树立的纪念碑;艺术家们借此机会在圣保罗的基督教空间中探索印度艺术和印度文化的可能性。本文探讨了这两座纪念碑图标的起源,指出琼斯纪念碑中古典、基督教和印度教图案的并置如何表明培根颁布了一种视觉宗教教义,这与琼斯的比较宗教研究是同源的,而罗西则利用当代土地改革和印度教《罗摩衍那》的混合主题阐述了生育的主题。

This article explores how a diverse assemblage of monuments erected in St Paul’s Cathedral to commemorate men who fought in the American Revolutionary War and the War of 1812 operated as a collective expression of imperial ideology. It is primarily a visual essay, using photographs of these monuments as a starting point, and focusing on the body of the deceased and its representation in sculptural and photographic form. The text offers a short exploration of how military bodies conceptualized violence for audiences in St Paul’s Cathedral and how the sculpted body offers a way to understand monuments as vehicles of imperial propaganda.
这篇文章探讨了圣保罗大教堂中为纪念参加美国革命战争和 1812 年战争的人们而竖立的各种纪念碑是如何作为帝国意识形态的集体表达而运作的。这主要是一篇视觉文章,以这些纪念碑的照片为起点,重点关注逝者的身体及其在雕塑和摄影中的表现形式。文中简要探讨了圣保罗大教堂的观众如何将军事尸体概念化为暴力,以及雕塑尸体如何为理解作为帝国宣传工具的纪念碑提供了一种方式。

(Un)forgotten: in the shadow of the Great Game, or East Asia in trans-imperial contexts (未)被遗忘:大博弈的阴影下,或跨帝国背景下的东亚

This article looks at the juxtaposition of empires, exploring how linkages between and across varied imperial phenomena might work. Through the career of Harry Smith Parkes (1828–85), British minister to China, Japan and Korea, as well as almost forgotten stories of the British occupation of Geomundo or the Port Hamilton Affair (1885–87) in Korea, it aims to understand the interconnectedness of geopolitical regions and the work of global processes in trans-imperial contexts. Parkes is a controversial figure who played a key role in the relations between East Asia and the West from the 1850s until the 1880s. After he died in Beijing in 1885, his bust was unveiled in the crypt of St Paul’s Cathedral. Meanwhile, in Shanghai, a bronze statue of Parkes was placed on its pedestal in 1890. While the monument to the British imperial past in China was removed by the Japanese during the Second World War, the white marble bust remains in metropolitan London, representing the imperial hero. British soldiers who died during the occupation and their gravesites in Korea, by contrast, have been largely forgotten in British imperial history. In the nineteenth century, Geomundo (Port Hamilton) was the international stage where five high-powered nations competed for political hegemony in East Asia. Now a British soldier cemetery in Geomundo History Park makes us consider the possibility of writing further trans- and inter-imperial histories beyond the silence.
本文着眼于帝国的并置,探讨各种帝国现象之间的联系如何发挥作用。文章通过英国驻中国、日本和朝鲜公使哈里-史密斯-帕克斯(Harry Smith Parkes,1828-1885 年)的职业生涯,以及几乎被人遗忘的英国占领地文岛或韩国汉密尔顿港事件(1885-1887 年)的故事,旨在了解地缘政治地区之间的相互联系以及全球进程在跨帝国背景下的作用。帕克斯是一位颇具争议的人物,从 19 世纪 50 年代到 19 世纪 80 年代,他在东亚与西方的关系中发挥了关键作用。1885 年他在北京去世后,他的半身雕像在圣保罗大教堂的地下室揭幕。与此同时,1890 年在上海,帕克斯的铜像被安放在基座上。第二次世界大战期间,英帝国在中国的历史纪念碑被日军拆除,但代表帝国英雄的白色大理石半身雕像却留在了伦敦。相比之下,在占领期间牺牲的英国士兵及其在朝鲜的墓地在很大程度上被遗忘在英帝国的历史中。19 世纪,Geomundo(汉密尔顿港)是五个大国争夺东亚政治霸权的国际舞台。现在,位于 Geomundo 历史公园的英国士兵墓地让我们思考,在沉默之外书写更多跨帝国和跨帝国历史的可能性。

This article moves beyond iconography to seek out traces of the colonial Caribbean in the memorials to Lieutenant-General Sir Ralph Abercromby by Richard Westmacott (c. 1803–09), Lieutenant-General Sir John Moore by John Bacon Jr (1815), and Lieutenant-General Sir Thomas Picton by Sebastian Gahagan (1816). In these memorials, ‘soil’ in its figurative, imagined and literal forms offers a lens through which to consider Caribbean colonialism in relation to the peculiar contradiction of attraction and repulsion that characterized British attitudes towards this region of the empire. Using ‘soil’ as a lens in this way blends the superficial Napoleonic commemorations of these officers with broader imperial resonances of this conflict, and amplifies early nineteenth-century debates in Britain regarding the regulation and abolition of African enslavement and the trade in enslaved Africans. Recognizing the significance of soil is therefore essential to identifying traces of the colonial Caribbean in St Paul’s, thereby rectifying the iconographic absence of this imperial context across the pantheon, and further demonstrating methodological resistance to discursive erasures of Britain’s contested histories.
本文不局限于图标,而是在理查德-韦斯特马科特(Richard Westmacott,约 1803-09 年)的拉尔夫-阿伯克罗姆比中将爵士纪念碑、小约翰-培根(John Bacon Jr,1815 年)的约翰-摩尔中将爵士纪念碑以及塞巴斯蒂安-加根(Sebastian Gahagan,1816 年)的托马斯-皮克顿中将爵士纪念碑中寻找加勒比殖民地的痕迹。在这些纪念碑中,"土壤 "以其具象、想象和文字的形式提供了一个视角,通过这个视角,我们可以将加勒比殖民主义与吸引和排斥的特殊矛盾联系起来,而这种矛盾正是英国人对帝国这一地区的态度的特点。以这种方式使用 "土壤 "作为视角,可以将对这些军官的肤浅的拿破仑式纪念与这场冲突的更广泛的帝国共鸣结合起来,并扩大 19 世纪早期英国关于监管和废除非洲奴役以及非洲奴隶贸易的辩论。因此,认识到土壤的重要性对于识别大三巴牌坊中的加勒比殖民地痕迹至关重要,从而纠正万神殿中缺乏这种帝国背景的图标,并进一步表明在方法论上抵制对英国有争议历史的话语抹杀。

This article considers the perhaps surprising centrality of sculptural engagements with Afghanistan and the broader north-west frontier of the Raj during the century after the Battle of Waterloo. The article ranges across a broad array of commemorative media, from standing white marble figurative statues and portrait busts, through allegorical mourning figures and memorial brasses, to High Church religious sculpture and scenes of biblical history. It argues that sculptors never really settled on a sculptural iconography for Afghanistan, in spite of drawing on key photographic and print representations of the region, but that the very malleability of the genre of Anglo-Afghan monuments in St Paul’s might itself have collectively represented a necessary linguistic, conceptual and personal mobility on the north-west frontier of the Raj.
这篇文章探讨了滑铁卢战役后的一个世纪中,雕塑与阿富汗以及更广泛的印度王室西北边境地区的关系,其中心地位或许令人惊讶。文章涉及广泛的纪念媒介,从白色大理石立像和半身肖像,到寓意哀悼人物和纪念铜像,再到高级教会宗教雕塑和圣经历史场景。文章认为,尽管雕塑家们借鉴了该地区的主要照片和印刷品,但他们从未真正确定阿富汗的雕塑图式,而大三巴牌坊中的盎格鲁-阿富汗纪念碑体裁本身的延展性可能共同代表了拉贾斯坦邦西北边境必要的语言、概念和个人流动性。

This article examines Bertha Burleigh’s 1912 marble and onyx monument to the war artist Melton Prior (1845–1910) alongside a range of earlier memorials to ‘special correspondents’ in the crypt in St Paul’s Cathedral. It considers the monument in the context of significant shifts in the nature of war reportage in the early twentieth century, as new and increasingly brutal technologies and methods of war placed significant strain on romantic Victorian conceptions of conflict. Exploring the extent to which war artists such as Prior were implicated in the violence they were tasked with documenting, the article also asks how such visual reportage informed the racial politics of memory embodied in the crypt, anointing some men as imperial heroes worthy of sombre commemoration and others as ‘ungrieveable’.
本文研究了伯莎-伯利 (Bertha Burleigh) 于 1912 年为战争艺术家梅尔顿-普赖尔(Melton Prior,1845-1910 年)建造的大理石和玛瑙纪念碑,以及圣保罗大教堂地下室中一系列早期的 "特约记者 "纪念碑。本研究在 20 世纪初战争报道性质发生重大转变的背景下对该纪念碑进行了研究,因为新的、日益残酷的战争技术和方法对维多利亚时期浪漫的冲突概念造成了巨大压力。文章探讨了普莱尔等战争艺术家在多大程度上被卷入了他们负责记录的暴力事件中,还询问了这种视觉报道如何为墓穴中体现的种族记忆政治提供信息,将一些人视为值得沉痛纪念的帝国英雄,而将另一些人视为 "不可悼念的"。

Exploring the extent to which war artists such as Prior were implicated in the violence they were tasked with documenting, the article also asks how such visual reportage informed the racial politics of memory embodied in the crypt, anointing some men as imperial heroes worthy of sombre commemoration and others as ‘ungrieveable’.","PeriodicalId":21666,"journal":{"name":"Sculpture Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141235343","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article considers the sculpted monuments in St Paul’s Cathedral to nineteenth-century protagonists in Britain’s invasion and rule of Southeast Asian territories (including Burma (Myanmar), Indonesia and the Andaman Islands). It focuses on two works in particular: Sir Francis Leggatt Chantrey’s monument to Major General Robert Rollo Gillespie, and the monument to Richard Southwell Bourke, sixth earl of Mayo and viceroy of India, attributed to Joseph Edgar Boehm. The first commemorates the man considered by his supporters to be the hero of the British East Indies after smashing a hole in the Indigenous power structures of the Indonesian archipelago so that it could be claimed for British India. The second remembers a man who was one of the British East Indies’ many victims, even as he ran the place. His story and his monument indicate the extent to which Southeast Asia became a region to which British India despatched its problems – and in which the liberal ideology used to justify nineteenth-century British imperialism met its limits. These two men’s imperial histories and sculpted memorials are read in turn as distinct and divergent instances of liberal imperialism’s simultaneous dependence upon, and denial of, its own capacity for brutal violence. The article argues that, viewed up close and in context, both monuments bear traces of that violence, its consequences, and the alibis, omissions and occlusions with which it was – and, in the neoliberal present, continues to be – cloaked in public discourse.
本文探讨了圣保罗大教堂中十九世纪英国入侵和统治东南亚领土(包括缅甸、印度尼西亚和安达曼群岛)的主角雕塑纪念碑。它特别关注两件作品:弗朗西斯-莱格特-钱特里爵士的罗伯特-罗洛-吉莱斯皮少将纪念碑和约瑟夫-埃德加-博姆的理查德-索斯韦尔-伯克纪念碑,理查德-索斯韦尔-伯克是梅奥的第六位伯爵和印度总督。第一座纪念碑纪念的是被其支持者视为英属东印度群岛英雄的理查德-索斯韦尔-伯克,他在印尼群岛的土著权力结构上打了一个洞,从而将该群岛划归英属印度。第二座纪念碑所纪念的人是英属东印度群岛的众多受害者之一,尽管他管理着这个地方。他的故事和他的纪念碑表明,东南亚在多大程度上成为了英属印度向其派遣问题的地区--在这个地区,用来为十九世纪英帝国主义辩护的自由主义意识形态遇到了它的极限。这两个人的帝国历史和雕刻纪念碑又被解读为自由帝国主义同时依赖和否认自身野蛮暴力能力的截然不同的例子。文章认为,从近距离和上下文来看,这两座纪念碑都留下了暴力的痕迹、暴力的后果,以及公共话语中对暴力的不在场证明、遗漏和遮蔽--在新自由主义的今天,这种不在场证明、遗漏和遮蔽仍在继续。
