摘要

圣保罗大教堂的纪念碑,近300件物品,包括大型大理石和青铜雕塑,以及设计和/或材料较低的作品。这些纪念碑的大部分奖学金都集中在由著名雕塑家建造的令人印象深刻的纪念碑上,这些纪念碑既崇拜高级军事英雄,也崇拜重要的政治和文化人物。相比之下,本文调查了西奈沙漠被谋杀者纪念碑(1883年),这是一个由伦敦公司Hart, Son, Peard & Co.设计的黄铜面板,以引起人们对大教堂中这种未被充分研究的纪念碑类型的关注。当时被称为帕尔默远征(Palmer Expedition)的小组所纪念的事件抓住了公众的想象力,成为1885年查尔斯·戈登少将(Charles Gordon)在喀土穆(Khartoum)陷落的前兆。这篇文章通过档案资料和新闻报道重现了一个被遗忘已久的故事,揭示了一个迄今为止被忽视的与英国参与中东,特别是埃及和苏丹有关的工作。因此,面板作为一个镜头,揭示了东方视觉文化在圣保罗万神殿中的重要性。这个专门用于间谍而不是士兵的面板的分析,旨在重塑我们对圣保罗纪念碑纪念不同类型的服务和项目英勇概念的方式的理解。

The monument to Men Murdered in the Sinai Desert: empire and Orientalism in St Paul’s Cathedral
The monuments in St Paul’s Cathedral, nearly three hundred objects, include large-scale marble and bronze sculptures as well as works of humbler design and/or materials. Much of the scholarship devoted to these memorials centres on impressive monuments by famous sculptors that venerate high-ranking military heroes as well as significant political and cultural figures. In contrast, this article investigates the monument to Men Murdered in the Sinai Desert (1883), a brass panel by the London-based firm Hart, Son, Peard & Co., to call attention to this understudied genre of monuments in the cathedral. Known at the time as the Palmer Expedition, the events commemorated by the panel seized the public imagination as a precursor of Major General Charles Gordon’s fall at Khartoum in 1885. Resurrecting a long-forgotten story through archival sources and press accounts, this article sheds light on a hitherto overlooked work concerned with British involvement in the Middle East, specifically Egypt and Sudan. The panel thus serves as a lens to reveal the significance of Orientalist visual culture in St Paul’s pantheon. The analysis of this panel, which is dedicated to spies rather than soldiers, aims to reshape our understanding of the way the monuments in St Paul’s memorialize different types of service and project notions of valour.
