Museums and Archaeology Hardback
Edited by Robin Skeates
Part of the Leicester Readers in Museum Studies series
Hardback
Description
Museums and Archaeology brings together a wide, but carefully chosen, selection of literature from around the world that connects museums and archaeology.
Part of the successful Leicester Readers in Museum Studies series, it provides a combination of issue- and practice-based perspectives.
As such, it is a volume not only for students and researchers from a range of disciplines interested in museum, gallery and heritage studies, including public archaeology and cultural resource management (CRM), but also the wide range of professionals and volunteers in the museum and heritage sector who work with archaeological collections. The volume’s balance of theory and practice and its thematic and geographical breadth is explored and explained in an extended introduction, which situates the readings in the context of the extensive literature on museum archaeology, highlighting the many tensions that exist between idealistic ‘principles’ and real-life ‘practice’ and the debates that surround these.
In addition to this, section introductions and the seminal pieces themselves provide a comprehensive and contextualised resource on the interplay of museums and archaeology.
