摘要

在博物馆环境中收集、研究和展示物品的分类方案是福柯式意义上充满权力的知识形式。当这样的类型学不精确,或者更有害的是,误导或直接错误时,博物馆的收藏实践,策展解释和展览展示决定可能会误入歧途,模糊了最初产生这些物品的社会结构和意识形态过程。这篇介绍性文章从一般的理论角度探讨了这些问题,并为我们特刊的四个历史和民族志复杂展览的案例研究奠定了基础,这些展览在曼哈顿、布鲁克林和马萨诸塞州伍斯特的几个博物馆举行。关于殖民主义对博物馆世界思想体系和分类的影响的文献尤为重要。[博物馆类型,策展人,分类方案]

Classification Schemes Gone Awry: Implications for Museum Research and Exhibition Display Practices

Classification schemes for collecting, studying, and displaying objects in museum contexts are power-filled forms of knowledge in Foucauldian senses. When such typologies are imprecise or, more harmfully, misleading or forthrightly mistaken, a museum’s collecting practices, curatorial interpretations, and exhibition display decisions can go astray and obscure the social structural and ideological processes that produced the objects in the first place. This introductory essay explores these issues in general theoretical terms and sets the scene for our special issue’s four case studies of historically and ethnographically complex exhibitions in several museums from Manhattan to Brooklyn to Worcester, MA. The literature on the impact of colonialism on museum worlds’ systems of thought and classification is especially important. [museum typologies, curatorship, classification schemes]

期刊介绍: Museum Anthropology seeks to be a leading voice for scholarly research on the collection, interpretation, and representation of the material world. Through critical articles, provocative commentaries, and thoughtful reviews, this peer-reviewed journal aspires to cultivate vibrant dialogues that reflect the global and transdisciplinary work of museums. Situated at the intersection of practice and theory, Museum Anthropology advances our knowledge of the ways in which material objects are intertwined with living histories of cultural display, economics, socio-politics, law, memory, ethics, colonialism, conservation, and public education.
