摘要

摘要:本研究从一个全新的视角来讲述维多利亚时代博物学家菲利普·高斯(Philip Gosse)在19世纪40年代在牙买加度过的一段著名的海洋水族馆普及史。首先,它揭示了非洲-加勒比收藏家和博物学家对戈斯自然史实践的重要性,并展示了种族化的民族志观点对维多利亚时代自然知识的影响。其次,文章认为Gosse在牙买加对海洋生物学的观察对他关于研究和展示海洋生物的想法的发展具有重要意义,并为他设计英国水族馆提供了信息。将Gosse的水生展览理解为生物体的档案,将Gosse对维多利亚时代美学、博物馆学和技术发展的贡献置于他在牙买加的自然历史工作的背景下。

“Glimpses of the Wonderful”: The Jamaican origins of the aquarium
ABSTRACT This study addresses the well-known history of Victorian naturalist Philip Gosse’s popularisation of the marine aquarium through a new lens: the period he spent in Jamaica during the 1840s. Firstly, it reveals the importance of African-Caribbean collectors and naturalists to Gosse’s natural history practise and shows the impact of racialized ethnographic perspectives on Victorian natural knowledge. Secondly, it argues that Gosse’s observations of marine biology in Jamaica were significant for his developing ideas about examining and displaying sea creatures and informed his designs for British aquaria. Understanding Gosse’s aquatic displays as archives of living bodies sets Gosse’s contribution to Victorian aesthetic, museological and technological developments in the context of his natural history work in Jamaica.
