Abstract:
AbstractHolocaust museums record and memorialize deeply affecting historical events. They can nevertheless be described and criticized using standard categories of museum analysis. This paper departs from previous studies of Holocaust museums by focusing not on ethical or aesthetic issues, but rather on ontological, epistemic, and taxonomic considerations. I begin by analysing the ontological basis of the educational value of various objects commonly displayed in Holocaust museums. I argue that this educational value is not intrinsic to the objects themselves, but rather stems from the extrins

Abstract:
New communications technologies offer museum curators opportunities to create exhibitions that are ‘open’ to diverse interpretations and are ‘democratic’ in privileging no particular interpretation. However, a fascination with the new forms of exhibition that communications technologies offer can distract us from the fact that they inevitably represent a particular view of the past. Reconsidering the collection of articles titled ‘Museums and New Media’ (Media International Australia incorporating Culture and Policy, no. 89) highlights the need to assert the primacy of historiography over the

The article examines the experience of the museums of a “manufacturing type” that appeared in Soviet Russia in the 1920s. References to the existence of such museums are repeatedly found in official reports, museums’ documentation and periodicals of those years. At the same time, we note that up to now there is no definition of this type of museum in the national historiography of the history of museums. The reference to the experience of their work remains on the periphery of the research interest. The article explores the example of two Moscow’s museums — the Museum of Porcelain and the Muse

Abstract:
Municipal Museums as Cultural Practice. On the History of a Bourgeois Phenomenon. Research on the history of bourgeois collections in Lower Austria in the long 19th century turns its attention to a regional culture of science and historiography that formed part of the cultural practices that united the increasingly heterogeneous middle classes. Until the mid-19th century, the oldest bourgeois collections were still guided by the ideals of the Enlightenment and hence they closely resembled the contemporary aristocratic and monastic collections. In the second half of the 19th century, the municipal museums focussed on exhibiting local history. Thus municipal museums created, stabilised and represented the identity of the provincial middle classes (Bürgertum) and reflected their emancipatory ambitions. Nevertheless, the elites of the society of orders, the nobility and the clergy, still exerted considerable influence, particularly via the learned societies at the time.
