权力与智识的对话——以《博物馆与美国的智识生活,1876-1926》为中心

Dialogue between Power and Intellect:Centered on Museums and American Intellectual Life,1876-1926

对于博物馆史的不同理解将影响到对于博物馆背后主体关系的理解。史蒂芬·康恩所著《博物馆与美国的智识生活,1876-1926》一书呈现了与托尼·本尼特等文化研究学者面对博物馆史时的不同书写方式,始终将智识观和智识群体的流变视作引导19世纪美国博物馆发展的重要动力之一,从双向的视角解释权力与智识在博物馆问题上的对话。

The different understanding of museum history could have an influence on comprehending relationships between subjects behind museums.Different with Tony Bennett and some other cultural scholars,Steven Conn has developed the museum history with a new paradigm in his Museums and American Intellectual Life,1876-1926,who always regarded the development of intellectual views and groups as one of the important driving forces leading the historical development of American museums in the 19 th century and chose a two-way perspective to explain the relationship between power and intellect on the museum issues.
