点评:This is an excellent exhibition, chronicling the life of one of the most interesting, important and perhaps least understood of the Antarctic explorers.
Shackleton was many things - a sailor, an explorer, a businessman, and an entrepreneur. By his own admission, he failed at most endeavors. However, where he excelled was in his treatment of his crew. In a time where men were expendable, he treated his crew with care and compassion; an approach which was virtually unheard of in those days.
The exhibition captures this rear insight to Shackleton’s character and also expertly chronicles his life in captivating detail, using modern digital media, virtual reality and actual physical artifacts from Shackleton’s expeditions.
The exhibition is housed in a beautifully restored building in the centre of Athy, itself a very elegant town. It is accessible to all ages and users. I would highly recommend visiting it.
翻译:这是一个精彩的展览,记录了南极探险家中最有趣、最重要的,或许也是最鲜为人知的一位的一生。
沙克尔顿身兼数职——他是一位水手、一位探险家、一位商人和一位企业家。他自己也承认,自己在大多数尝试中都失败了。然而,他最杰出的地方在于他对船员的关爱。在那个人人皆可牺牲的时代,他却以关怀和同情对待他的船员;这种做法在当时几乎闻所未闻。
展览不仅捕捉了沙克尔顿性格的背后,还巧妙地运用现代数字媒体、虚拟现实以及沙克尔顿探险队留下的实物,以引人入胜的细节记录了他的一生。
展览位于阿西市中心一座经过精心修复的建筑内,阿西本身就是一座非常优雅的小镇。展览适合所有年龄段和人群参观。我强烈推荐参观。
