UMW Professor of Geography Steve Hanna, seen here during a 2018 interview for ‘With Good Reason’ radio, was the lead author on a journal article that won the prestigious Zumkehr Prize for Scholarship in Public Memory. Hanna’s research involves ‘narrative mapping’ applied at Southern plantation museums to determine how the South tells its story about slavery. Photo by Karen Pearlman.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The process of capturing and interpreting these variations is called \u201cnarrative mapping,\u201d said UMW Geography Professor Stephen Hanna, whose research with colleagues at other universities aims to determine \u2013 and eventually change \u2013 how the South tells its story of slavery.<\/p>\n

Hanna and his co-researchers applied the process to 170 tours at 15 different plantation museums. The results from two of those antebellum sites, Louisiana\u2019s Laura Plantation and Virginia\u2019s Berkeley Plantation, formed an article<\/a>, published in the Journal of Heritage Tourism\u00a0<\/em>that won the prestigious Zumkehr Prize for Scholarship in Public Memory.<\/p>\n

The honor would not have been possible, Hanna said, without years\u2019 worth of help from Mary Washington students.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey contributed their ideas, hard work and energy to the project\u201d from 2014 to 2017, said Hanna, who served as the article\u2019s lead author and who, as the team\u2019s only cartographer, designed the method for graphically presenting the results. \u201cMy work with the students has become my favorite memories of my time at UMW.\u201d<\/p>\n

The students, eight undergrads who are now alumni, helped field test the research method and used it to document tours at 15 plantation museums in Virginia, Louisiana and South Carolina. They also developed ways to interpret and summarize the data collected.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor a professor to bring undergraduates into their own research is a rare opportunity,\u201d said Christine MacKrell \u201917, who helped with the work during her time at Mary Washington.<\/p>\n

A group enters Louisiana’s Laura Plantation, among the sites where researchers used narrative mapping to document more than 170 tours. Results from this Creole plantation on the Mississippi River and from Virginia\u2019s Berkeley Plantation were published in an article in the ‘Journal of Heritage Tourism’ that won the prestigious Zumkehr Prize for Scholarship in Public Memory. UMW Professor of Geography Steve Hanna was the lead author. <\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>\n

Called \u201cgroundbreaking\u201d and \u201ctransformative\u201d by Roger C. Aden, Charles E. Zumkehr professor of communication studies at Ohio University, the research was part of a four-year National Science Foundation (NSF) grant to the seven faculty collaborators. It \u201cprovides a lens to explore the manner and extent to which Southern plantations are incorporating the history of slavery, the challenges they face in doing justice to the memories and identities of the enslaved, and how visitors and plantation management and staff interpret and shape the narration of those memories,\u201d according to the Tourism RESET<\/a> website. Hanna plans to travel to Ohio University at a later date to present the findings.<\/p>\n

The prize-winning text was one of more than 20 journal articles and book chapters produced by the team, which also has a book manuscript under review at the University of Georgia Press.<\/p>\n

The NSF grant has ended, but Hanna continues to bring students into his research projects \u2013 and he continues to focus on the portrayal of African American slaves at historic properties. Last spring, they began to investigate how the relationships between Virginia\u2019s presidential plantation museums \u2013 Mount Vernon, Monticello, Montpelier and Highland \u2013 and people descended from those once enslaved there impact present-day visitor experiences.<\/p>\n

Relieved that the research wrapped up this March, just before social distancing guidelines went into effect, Hanna said, he\u2019s worried about when tours might resume, if sites will be able to reopen at all, and about the future of this type of research.<\/p>\n

His efforts, said Provost Nina Mikhalevsky, \u201ctruly exemplify our mission \u2013 dedicated faculty doing first-rate work, involving and developing our students to do research, and giving them invaluable hands-on experience.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
