Abstract

ABSTRACT This essay explores the generative potential of a particular concept – Derrida’s notion of “hauntology” – across a wide range of heritage domains. In doing so it addresses one of the central concerns of critical heritage, namely what it means to practice criticality and what the social and political implications of this process might be. The paper begins by examining the broad points of intersection between heritage and hauntology, before moving on to consider three more defined areas of thematic overlap. These encompass the ghosts of place, spectral aesthetics, and recent ideas emerging from the environmental humanities around more-than-human hauntings. While there is considerable crossover between these fields, each builds upon a different set of texts and micro case studies to show the distinctive ways in which Derrida’s concept has been taken up and reconfigured in diverse disciplinary contexts. The paper concludes with a summary of the possible implications for adopting (and adapting) hauntology as a mode of doing critical heritage.
成为古生物学家:批判性创造性遗产实践的新模式
摘要本文探讨了一个特定概念——德里达的“夜游学”概念——在广泛的遗产领域中的生成潜力。在这样做的过程中,它解决了批判性遗产的一个核心问题,即实践批判性意味着什么,以及这一过程可能带来的社会和政治影响。本文首先研究了遗产和夜学之间的广泛交叉点,然后再考虑三个更明确的主题重叠领域。其中包括地方的幽灵、光谱美学,以及最近从环境人文学科中产生的思想,而不仅仅是人类的闹鬼。虽然这些领域之间存在相当大的交叉,但每一个领域都建立在一组不同的文本和微观案例研究的基础上,以展示德里达的概念在不同的学科背景下被采用和重新配置的独特方式。最后,本文总结了采用(和改编)重游学作为批判性遗产的一种模式可能产生的影响。

期刊介绍: Heritage & Society is a global, peer-reviewed journal that provides a forum for scholarly, professional, and community reflection on the cultural, political, and economic impacts of heritage on contemporary society. We seek to examine the current social roles of collective memory, historic preservation, cultural resource management, public interpretation, cultural preservation and revitalization, sites of conscience, diasporic heritage, education, legal/legislative developments, cultural heritage ethics, and central heritage concepts such as authenticity, significance, and value. The journal provides an engaging forum about tangible and intangible heritage for those who work with international and governmental organizations, academic institutions, private heritage consulting and CRM firms, and local, associated, and indigenous communities. With a special emphasis on social science approaches and an international perspective, the journal will facilitate lively, critical discussion and dissemination of practical data among heritage professionals, planners, policymakers, and community leaders.
