当代遗产理论系列讲座简介
Contemporary Heritage Theory Lecture Series
近几十年来，文化遗产在当代社会的属性、功能和定位有了巨大的改变。遗产不再是为少数专业人士所把握解释权的小众事业，成为社会更广泛关注的议题。除了关注遗产本体的物质情况，遗产保护和利用亦被多元群体作为解决当代社会和文化议题的推手。无论是物质保护的结果或是推动社会发展的进程，以价值认知为核心的理念，始终是遗产保护学科里的重要方法。本系列讲座特邀宾夕法尼亚大学兰道尔·梅森教授，对遗产价值认知和其对保护与社会发展实践的启示，以美国当代社会为例，进行历史回溯、理念梳理、实践探索，让不同专业背景的学生能够理解遗产学科的动态性和广泛性，从而促进多学科的交叉融合。
In recent decades, the attributes, functions and role of cultural heritage in contemporary society has seen drastic changes. Heritage has gradually depart from being a specialized industry interpreted by a small group of professionals, and has become a subject of wider social concern. In addition to focusing on the material condition, heritage conservation and utilization are also employed by diverse groups as a mean to address contemporary social and cultural issues. Nonetheless, whether as a result of physical conservation or as a catalyst for social development, value-centered concept has always been an important approach in heritage conservation. This lecture series invites Professor Randall Mason from the University of Pennsylvania, with contemporary American society as an example, to present a historical retrospection, conceptual clarification, and practical exploration of heritage value perception, as well as its implications for conservation and social development practice. We hope that students from diverse professional backgrounds can understand the dynamic and extensive nature of the heritage discipline, and thus promote the interdisciplinary communication and integration.

Abstract

Mapping the Issue of Values
第一场 遗产价值议题溯源
10.25 09:00AM (GMT+8)
长期以来，价值一直在遗产的理解和保护中起着不可或缺的基础作用。过去半个世纪中的政治社会变迁促进了遗产领域的机构和专业发展，同时大大拓宽了多元群体对遗产价值赋予的理解空间。对于历史的回溯以及对于当下问题的分析表明，当代遗产保护领域存在两种不同且互补的价值理解：一个与保护实践的物质性、策展性传统有关，可以称为“遗产价值”；另一个关注其在经济、政治、社会和环境层面的利用，可以称为“社会价值”。结合考虑这两种互不相同却相互依存的观点，我们可以推动专业领域的反思和发展，并激发出更出持续性和包容性的保护实践。
Values have long underpinned concepts of heritage and its conservation within the built environment. The last half century bore witness to a critical period of political and social influence that shaped the field’s institutional and professional development, and has broadened the understanding of how multiple publics may ascribe different values to heritage. An analysis of evolving trends and emerging issues suggests that the contemporary field is characterized by two distinct, complementary perspectives: one centered on heritage values (associated with the curatorial, materialist traditions of conservation practice) and the other on societal values (focused on the economic, political, social, and environmental uses of heritage). Integrating these different yet interdependent views can advance learning and self-critique within the professional field and inspire more sustainable and inclusive practices of conservation.

Values and Sustainability
第二场 遗产与可持续性
11.08 10:00AM (GMT+8)
价值是遗产可持续的关键所在，它们被赋予的涵义随着时间推移而演变，因而可以实现过去的经验结构与当下社会的巧妙联结。以价值为中心的保护是一整套理解价值与辅助决策的系统框架，涵盖了对于遗产所处当代社会的动态理解以及历史环境的物质性解读，有助于建立一种具有包容性和多元性的保护概念。随着遗产保护与其他社会议题的关联逐渐加深，这套框架对于政策制定的支持以及对于新型权力关系的适应使其在遗产可持续发展中展现出了巨大的潜力。
Values are a key locus for sustaining heritage, as they are ascribed and evolve over time, connect inherited fabric and experiences thereof to contemporary society. Featuring a set of discernment and decision-making practices, the values-centered conservation （VCC）framework helps build a conception of conservation that is equally rooted in an understanding of dynamic, contemporary society and in the history and materiality of inherited built environments. As heritage becomes more deeply implicated with other civil society issues, VCC would surely sustain heritage by continuing to adapt decision-making to new power relationships.

Engaged Preservation
第三场 参与式保护
11.22 10:00AM (GMT+8)
遗产保护是一个始终与社会实际问题密切关联的学科。在应对当代社会挑战的驱动下，参与式保护的理念肩负着社会性与物质性的双重使命，容纳了将遗产作为历史传统载体及社会变迁动因的双重理解。通过将物质保护与社会需求相结合，这一方法推动了社区发展、保护实践以及文化多元的进程，同时实现了在地域的结构中对于历史场域和叙事的重新编织。
Preservation is a profession that constantly and intimately engage with society’s empirical issues and opportunities. Driven by taking on the challenges of contemporary society, engaged preservation embraces the dual lives of preservation as social processes and material fabric, as well as the dual capacities of the historic built environment as an archive for traditional curating and an agent for social change. Dealing with material and social imperatives holistically, the measure of engaged preservation successfully advances community development and building performance and cultural relevance, while at the same time weave historic places and narratives back into the fabric of communities and regions.
