Abstract

ABSTRACT:What does sci fi have to say about and to the people who collect and preserve? Using a scene from Cuarón’s Children of Men as a starting point, the author explores some popular representations of heritage professionals and their spaces in science fiction. These chime with critically engaged museological theory and practice in recognizing the role of museums in past and present injustices. The author asks whether popular sci fi representations can be used as a starting point for discussion and debate in professional training. Can sci fi change the way we work and create different futures for museums?

摘要:科幻小说对收藏和保存的人有什么启示?作者以Cuarón的《人类之子》中的一个场景为出发点，探讨了一些流行的遗产专业人员及其在科幻小说中的表现形式。这些与批判性的博物馆学理论和实践相一致，认识到博物馆在过去和现在的不公正中所扮演的角色。作者提出，在专业培训中，通俗的科幻表现形式是否可以作为讨论和辩论的起点?科幻小说能改变我们的工作方式，为博物馆创造不同的未来吗?
