摘要

摘要:《凯姆斯考特·乔叟》(1896)被公认为威廉·莫里斯的凯姆斯考特出版社的最高成就。1921年，新南威尔士州国立图书馆收藏了这本书的一本，它被精美地用加工过的袋鼠皮包裹起来。我们展示了在试图将凯尔姆斯科特·乔叟的作品转变为澳大利亚文化文物的过程中，这种重新结合阐明了澳大利亚的中世纪主义、凯尔姆斯科特出版社的哲学(它倾向于将中世纪和现代混合在一起)、乔叟在《坎特伯雷故事集》中对物质和表面的描述，以及殖民地和澳大利亚土著长期使用袋鼠皮之间的关系。

The Kangaroo Kelmscott: Materiality, Embellishment, and Australian Identity

Abstract:The Kelmscott Chaucer (1896) is recognised as the crowning achievement of William Morris’s Kelmscott Press. In 1921, a copy of this book housed in the State Library of New South Wales was beautifully rebound in tooled kangaroo hide. We show that in the process of attempting to transform the Kelmscott Chaucer into an Australian cultural artefact, this rebinding illuminates Australian medievalism, the philosophy of the Kelmscott Press (which tends to hybridise the medieval and the modern), Chaucer’s depiction of materiality and surface in ‘The Canterbury Tales’, and the relationship between colonial and long-standing Indigenous Australian uses of kangaroo skin.
