内容简介

Museums: A Visual Anthropology provides a clear and concise summary of the key ideas, debates and texts of the most important approaches to the study of museums from around the world. The book examines ways to address the social relations of museums, embedded in their sites, collections, and exhibitions, as an integral part of the visual and material culture they comprise. Cross-disciplinary in scope, Museums uses ideas and approaches both from within and outside of anthropology to further students' knowledge of and interest in museums. Including selected, globally based case studies to highlight and exemplify important issues, the book also contains suggested Further Reading for each chapter, for students to expand their learning independently. Exploring fundamental methods and approaches to engage this constantly evolving time machine, Museums will be essential reading for students of anthropology and museum studies.

    看了一遍。非常人类学(作者本身就是剑桥的人类学博士)。全书共六章,分别涉及了公共博物馆的出现及其相关的视觉文化,国家博物馆的兴起,民族志博物馆,博物馆民族志方法,展览设计实践的历史发展,文物和人类遗骸返还六个主题。每章都包含了很多案例。其实更像六篇文章组合在一起,因此单独读哪一篇都没关系。11-03
