In our introduction, we establish the original conference context of the 15 following position papers, emphasizing that the papers represent a conversation between participants, each of whom had been allocated a single monument from St Paul’s Cathedral in the period between c. 1796 and 1913, to think about the memorial’s visual and material richness and complexity, as well as its immediate and wider cathedral location, and broader discursive contexts. We map out the historiographical contexts of the papers, within the contexts of sculpture studies, studies of church monuments, interdisciplinary studies of the nineteenth century, and histories of Victorian Christianity – and especially Anglicanism – as it intersects with other world religions, and seeks to evangelize both at home and abroad.
在我们的引言中,我们建立了以下15份立场文件的原始会议背景,强调这些文件代表了参与者之间的对话,他们每个人在大约1796年至1913年期间都被分配了圣保罗大教堂的一座纪念碑,以思考纪念碑的视觉和物质丰富性和复杂性,以及其直接而广泛的大教堂位置和更广泛的话语背景。我们在雕塑研究、教堂纪念碑研究、19世纪跨学科研究以及维多利亚基督教历史(尤其是圣公会)的背景下绘制了论文的历史背景,因为它与世界其他宗教相交,并寻求在国内外传播福音。

‘A Library of Our Own Compositions’: The Minervian Library and Children’s Social Authorship in Victorian Orkney “我们自己的作品的图书馆”:密涅瓦图书馆和儿童在维多利亚奥克尼的社会创作

This article examines the Minervian Library, an extraordinary collection of children’s manuscript stories produced in mid-Victorian Orkney. Established in 1866 by sisters Mary and Clara Cowan and their cousin Isabella Bremner, the collaborative project had ambitions beyond its beginnings as a family literary endeavour: the girls envisaged a working library complete with membership and borrowing records. On offer to the ‘Library Damsels of the Minervian Library’, as they dubbed their members, were 50 of their own original compositions, mostly comprising fairy tales, domestic dramas, and stories of European nobility. In this article, we argue that an analysis of these manuscripts and the social networks in which they were produced and circulated challenges our understanding of literary juvenilia and its relationship to wider cultural processes. We posit that the manuscripts offer a striking example of juvenile ‘social authorship’, not only in the sense of their circulation among a community of readers, but also in the ways that the authors actively engaged with developing literary trends, such as the emergence of the European literary fairy tale, and responded to contemporary debates about girlhood and girls’ lives. In this way, the Minervian Library demonstrates that children were not simply passive consumers of cultural activities, but could also be participants in the creation of collective meanings and discourses.
这篇文章考察了Minervian图书馆,这是一个非凡的儿童手稿故事集,产生于维多利亚中期的奥克尼。1866年,玛丽和克拉拉·考恩姐妹以及她们的表妹伊莎贝拉·布雷姆纳建立了这一合作项目,该项目的雄心超越了最初的家庭文学事业:女孩们设想建立一个有会员资格和借阅记录的工作图书馆。他们称之为“Minervian图书馆的图书馆堤坝”,向他们提供了50首自己的原创作品,主要包括童话、国内戏剧和欧洲贵族的故事。在这篇文章中,我们认为,对这些手稿及其产生和传播的社会网络的分析,挑战了我们对文学青春及其与更广泛的文化过程的关系的理解。我们认为,这些手稿提供了一个引人注目的青少年“社会作者”的例子,不仅从它们在读者群体中的传播意义上来说,而且从作者积极参与发展中的文学潮流的方式来看,比如欧洲文学童话的出现,并回应了当代关于少女时代和女孩生活的辩论。通过这种方式,Minervian图书馆表明,儿童不仅仅是文化活动的被动消费者,而且还可以参与集体意义和话语的创造。

Ecumenism to Ontology: Stoker’s Theology of the Host 从普世主义到本体论:斯托克的主人神学
IF 0.3 3区 历史学 Q2 HISTORY Pub Date : 2022-07-07 DOI: 10.1093/jvcult/vcac031

Bram Stoker’s novel Dracula is replete with religious symbolism, from devotional objects to sacred imagery. Despite the novel’s theological richness, little has been written on Stoker’s theology, and most criticism has focused on interpreting the novel as an affirmation of either Anglicanism or Catholicism. Building on Alison Milbank’s argument in God and the Gothic, this essay shows how Stoker’s theology eschews the boundaries of rigid dogmatism, seeking instead an ecumenical and eccentric theology. It is through such theological exploration, I argue, that the novel discovers and frames questions of ontological hierarchy. Stoker’s use of the Host, in particular, enables him to engage with sacramental presence, and to subvert tropes associated with the Gothic in a manner which plunges the novel into a mode of free theological exploration grounded in the physicality of both sinfulness and grace. Focusing on the implications of the Host in the novel, this article provides an in-depth analysis of theological meaning, showing how the novel’s premise refuses to fit into any particular doctrinal framework, and demonstrates that what lies at the core of Stoker’s vision is an ontological system which reaffirms divine primacy over the human.
布拉姆·斯托克的小说《德古拉》充满了宗教象征,从虔诚的物品到神圣的意象。尽管这部小说的神学内容丰富,但很少有人写斯托克的神学,大多数批评都集中在将这部小说解读为对圣公会或天主教的肯定。本文以艾莉森·米尔班克在《上帝与哥特式》中的论点为基础,展示了斯托克的神学如何避开僵化教条主义的界限,转而寻求普世和古怪的神学。我认为,正是通过这种神学探索,小说发现并构建了本体论层次的问题。斯托克对主人公的使用,尤其使他能够参与圣礼的存在,并颠覆与哥特式相关的比喻,使小说进入一种基于罪恶和恩典的物质性的自由神学探索模式。本文聚焦于《主人》在小说中的含义,对神学意义进行了深入分析,展示了小说的前提如何拒绝融入任何特定的教义框架,并证明了斯托克愿景的核心是一个重申神圣高于人类的本体论体系。

‘Medical Popes’ and ‘Vaccination Protestants’: Anti-Catholicism and the Campaign against Compulsory Vaccination in Victorian England “医学教皇”和“疫苗接种新教徒”:维多利亚时代英格兰的反天主教和反对强制疫苗接种运动

The anti-vaccination campaign of the late nineteenth century has attracted the attention of historians in recent decades. The campaign against compulsory vaccination for smallpox gained the support of hundreds of thousands of people in Victorian Britain. Many objected to vaccination on scriptural grounds. Many others claimed that it was contradictory to their belief in mesmerism, Swedenborgianism or hydropathy. Still others argued that the Vaccination Acts of 1867 and 1871 represented a violation of individual liberties. One overlooked aspect of this movement relates to the use of anti-Catholic rhetoric in the speeches and literature which its leaders produced. A significant proportion of these leaders were drawn from the community of medical dissent. These individuals lived through a period when anti-Catholicism began to wane as a political force in England. Confronted with the new phenomenon of medical professionalization, they sought to style themselves as the inheritors of a Protestant tradition. In doing so, this article suggests that they attempted to repurpose the frailties of their movement – its reputation as crankish, plebeian or marginal – as strengths, and the avowed expertise of medical professionals as a weakness.
近几十年来,19世纪末的反疫苗运动引起了历史学家的注意。在维多利亚时代的英国,反对强制接种天花疫苗的运动得到了数十万人的支持。许多人基于圣经的理由反对接种疫苗。还有许多人声称,这与他们对催眠术、斯威登堡主义或水疗法的信仰相矛盾。还有一些人认为,1867年和1871年的《疫苗接种法案》侵犯了个人自由。这场运动的一个被忽视的方面涉及到其领导人在演讲和文学作品中使用反天主教的修辞。这些领导人中有很大一部分来自医疗异见人士。这些人经历了一段反天主教在英国政治势力开始式微的时期。面对医疗专业化的新现象,他们试图把自己塑造成新教传统的继承者。在这样做的过程中,这篇文章表明,他们试图将其运动的弱点——其古怪、平民或边缘的名声——重新定位为优势,而将医疗专业人员公认的专业知识作为弱点。

Performing the Self through Orientalizing the Kurds in Isabella Bird’s Journeys in Persia and Kurdistan 伊莎贝拉·伯德《波斯与库尔德斯坦之旅》中库尔德人的东方化演绎自我

This article fleshes out the various ways Isabella Bird performs the self in her travel account, Journeys in Persia and Kurdistan (1891), mainly in her engagement with the Kurdish people. Deploying Judith Butler’s theory of performativity of gender, we argue that travel writing is empowering for Bird because it offers her a viable platform to perform a variety of selves through which she can voice her complicated and nuanced socio-political views and promote her image. Moreover, we contend that Bird’s representation of the Kurds and their region is informed by Orientalist ideology of the time as well as her own complex subject position. The fluidity of Bird’s identity, which is represented through performing a rich diversity of masculine and feminine selves in her account, exposes the constructed nature of gender. Bird not only undermines the prescribed gender boundaries of her time, but also demands the right for herself, as a woman writer, to be both caring and daring by playing the roles of a brave traveller, intellectual explorer, devoted Hakim, shrewd political analyst, religious commentator, and receptive ethnographer in Journeys.
这篇文章充实了伊莎贝拉·伯德在她的旅行记录《波斯和库尔德斯坦之旅》(1891)中表现自我的各种方式,主要是在她与库尔德人民的交往中。运用朱迪斯·巴特勒的性别表演性理论,我们认为旅行写作对伯德来说是一种赋权,因为它为她提供了一个可行的平台来表演各种自我,她可以通过这个平台表达自己复杂而微妙的社会政治观点,并提升自己的形象。此外,我们认为,伯德对库尔德人及其地区的描绘受到了当时东方主义意识形态以及她自己复杂的主体立场的影响。伯德的身份流动性,通过在她的叙述中表现出丰富多样的男性和女性自我来表现,暴露了性别的建构本质。伯德不仅破坏了她那个时代规定的性别界限,而且要求作为一名女作家,她有权在《旅程》中扮演勇敢的旅行者、知识探险家、忠诚的哈基姆、精明的政治分析家、宗教评论员和乐于接受的民族志学家。

War at t’ Parsonage: The Brontës and Military Conflict 牧师住宅的战争:Brontës与军事冲突

In 2015, the Brontë Parsonage Museum in Haworth curated an important exhibition to commemorate the bicentenary of the Battle of Waterloo and the Brontë family’s engagement with its politics and legacies. Bringing together military-orientated books that were owned by the family (such as Walter Scott’s Life of Napoleon), drawings and watercolour paintings by the children (such as Branwell’s disturbing depiction of conflict simply entitled Terror), and intriguing artefacts from the Museum’s collection (including a bust of Wellington and a fragment of Napoleon’s original coffin which was given to Charlotte by Monsieur Heger), the exhibition beautifully depicted the multiple ways in which Haworth’s most famous family were fascinated by, and responded to, ideas of war and conflict throughout their lives and careers. The exhibition was housed in a smallish room separated from the main exhibition area, which created both an intense viewing experience – the walls and cases were full of objects and information – and suggested that, after our immersion in the domestic and literary lives of the Brontës in the key exhibition rooms, we also need to bear in mind how engaged the family were in the wider world and in debates about history and socio-political transformation. For as Terry Eagleton neatly phrased it in Myths of Power, his ground-breaking Marxist study of the sisters’ mature writings, ‘the Brontës lived through an era of disruptive social change, and lived that disruption at a particularly vulnerable point’.1 The instigator of this exhibition was Emma Butcher, whose important research on the Brontë family’s understanding and manipulation of military conflict is the subject of her first monograph, The Brontës and War: Fantasy and Conflict in Charlotte and Branwell Brontë’s Youthful Writings. Taking as its key focus the Glass Town and Angria sagas which were developed by Charlotte and Branwell across the 1820s and 1830s, Butcher’s engaging analysis builds upon the work of critics like Christine Alexander, Heather Glen, and Victor Neufeldt, who have established the centrality of the siblings’ early writings to their literary careers.2 By focusing on a specific topic running throughout these writings, Butcher demonstrates again how fertile the material is for serious critical consideration. For in addition to providing some of the foundations for the siblings’ mature writings, this youthful work effectively reveals the
2015年,霍沃斯的布朗特牧师博物馆策划了一场重要展览,以纪念滑铁卢战役200周年以及布朗特家族参与其政治和遗产。将家族所有的军事书籍(如沃尔特·斯科特的《拿破仑的一生》)、孩子们的绘画和水彩画(如布兰威尔对冲突的令人不安的描述,简称《恐怖》)汇集在一起,以及博物馆收藏的有趣文物(包括惠灵顿半身像和黑格先生送给夏洛特的拿破仑原棺碎片),展览完美地描绘了霍沃斯最著名的家族在其一生和职业生涯中对战争和冲突的想法着迷并做出回应的多种方式。展览被安置在一个与主展区分离的小房间里,这创造了一种强烈的观看体验——墙壁和箱子里充满了物品和信息——并表明,在我们沉浸在主要展厅中布朗特人的家庭和文学生活中之后,我们还需要记住,这个家庭是如何融入更广阔的世界,参与关于历史和社会政治变革的辩论的。正如特里·伊格尔顿(Terry Eagleton)在《权力的神话》(Myths of Power)一书中巧妙地表达的那样,他对这对姐妹成熟作品进行了开创性的马克思主义研究,“勃朗特一家经历了一个破坏性社会变革的时代,并在一个特别脆弱的时刻经历了这种破坏”,她的第一本专著《勃朗特与战争:夏洛特的幻想与冲突》和《布兰维尔·布朗特的青春写作》的主题是她对勃朗特家族理解和操纵军事冲突的重要研究。布彻将夏洛特和布兰威尔在19世纪20年代和19世纪30年代创作的《玻璃城》和《安格里亚传奇》作为其重点,其引人入胜的分析建立在克里斯汀·亚历山大、希瑟·格伦和维克托·诺伊费尔特等评论家的作品之上,他们确立了兄弟姐妹早期作品在他们文学生涯中的中心地位。2通过关注贯穿这些作品的特定主题,布彻再次证明了这些材料是多么丰富,值得认真的批判性思考。因为除了为兄弟姐妹成熟的作品奠定一些基础外,这部年轻的作品有效地揭示了

Bringing together military-orientated books that were owned by the family (such as Walter Scott’s Life of Napoleon), drawings and watercolour paintings by the children (such as Branwell’s disturbing depiction of conflict simply entitled Terror), and intriguing artefacts from the Museum’s collection (including a bust of Wellington and a fragment of Napoleon’s original coffin which was given to Charlotte by Monsieur Heger), the exhibition beautifully depicted the multiple ways in which Haworth’s most famous family were fascinated by, and responded to, ideas of war and conflict throughout their lives and careers. The exhibition was housed in a smallish room separated from the main exhibition area, which created both an intense viewing experience – the walls and cases were full of objects and information – and suggested that, after our immersion in the domestic and literary lives of the Brontës in the key exhibition rooms, we also need to bear in mind how engaged the family were in the wider world and in debates about history and socio-political transformation. For as Terry Eagleton neatly phrased it in Myths of Power, his ground-breaking Marxist study of the sisters’ mature writings, ‘the Brontës lived through an era of disruptive social change, and lived that disruption at a particularly vulnerable point’.1 The instigator of this exhibition was Emma Butcher, whose important research on the Brontë family’s understanding and manipulation of military conflict is the subject of her first monograph, The Brontës and War: Fantasy and Conflict in Charlotte and Branwell Brontë’s Youthful Writings. Taking as its key focus the Glass Town and Angria sagas which were developed by Charlotte and Branwell across the 1820s and 1830s, Butcher’s engaging analysis builds upon the work of critics like Christine Alexander, Heather Glen, and Victor Neufeldt, who have established the centrality of the siblings’ early writings to their literary careers.2 By focusing on a specific topic running throughout these writings, Butcher demonstrates again how fertile the material is for serious critical consideration. For in addition to providing some of the foundations for the siblings’ mature writings, this youthful work effectively reveals the","PeriodicalId":43921,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Victorian Culture","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46913930","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
