計畫簡介

 

壹、計畫內容摘要

博物館蒐藏與展示的物質及非物質文化,為瞭解人類文明發展與知識建構的重要體系。歐洲列強透過博物館的蒐藏與展示,得以宣示國力並成為認識異文化的窗口。亞太地區許多前英國殖民地,如香港、新加坡、紐西蘭與澳洲等國,其早期博物館蒐藏與展示深受歐洲博物館觀念的影響,而後殖民時代的亞太地區,其蒐藏展示與詮釋如何轉向,以符合新興國家的政策與意識形態,是很值得探討的議題。

另外,十九世紀末崛起的日本殖民帝國,也於亞洲殖民地設立博物館,對於台灣早期博物館的發展,有著深遠的影響。1970年代,隨著博物館學專門研究所的成立、法國生態博物理論的提出、1990年代英國與歐盟積極提倡的文化參與平權政策,以及美加地區注重多元文化教育的博物館事業發展,都透過學界的引介,影響並激發台灣博物館的理念與實踐。有鑒於博物館的蒐藏與展覽對於國家與地方文化認同與建構、全球人權議題提倡、國際策展及自然和文化資產保存等,均扮演著重要的角色。因此,本計畫將立足於亞太地區與臺灣的博物館蒐藏與展示研究,並探索、引介歐美博物館蒐藏與文化展示之理論與實踐,以建構跨領域與跨文化之國際比較研究。

關鍵詞: 博物館蒐藏、展示文化、博物館與殖民主義、亞太博物館研究、歐美博物研究

 

 

Museums collect and exhibit tangible and intangible culture in order to have a deeper understanding of the development of civilization and construct the system of knowledge. Through museum collections and exhibitions, the great powers of Europe are able to demonstrate national power and become windows to other cultures. Early museum collections and exhibitions of the many former British colonies in the Asia-Pacific region, such as Hong Kong, Singapore, New Zealand, Australia and etc., were influenced by the concepts of European Museums. Therefore, how the exhibitions and collections of Asia-Pacific museums in the post-colonial era have changed their interpretation in order to comply with the policies and ideologies of newly emerged countries, is worth discussing.

In addition, the Japanese colonial empire that rose in the late 19th century also established museums in its Asian colonies, which had a great impact on the early development of museums in Taiwan. The establishment of graduate school of museum studies and the theory of eco-museums in France in the 1970s; the active promotion of social inclusion policy in the U.K. and European countries in the 1990s; and the focus on multicultural education and the development of museum enterprises in the United States and Canada, all influenced and inspired the concept and practice of museums in Taiwan, through academic introduction. In the view that museum collections and exhibitions play a crucial role in the construction of national and local cultural identity, the promotion of global human rights issues, the curatorship and preservation of natural and cultural heritage; this project will focus on the research of museum collections and exhibition in Taiwan and the Asia-Pacific region, applying and introducing theories and practices of collecting and displaying culture of museums in Europe and North America, in order to construct an interdisciplinary and cross-cultural comparative researches with international scope.
